A RARE OPPORTUNITY! A well located, level building plot extending to 0.23 acres (approximately) with consent to build a single, detached chalet-style dwelling. The final building will offer spacious, contemporary open-plan accommodation extending to over 2000 square feet. With large south-facing garden and private driveway parking. A fantastic 'tucked away' position and no-through road address, a short walk to the village centre.  This unique plot enjoys countryside walks a short distance from the front door. The friendly village of Sparkford has a public house, playing field, an active parish hall for Scouts and toddler groups, St Mary Magdalene church and Sparkford is in the Cam Vale Benefice centred on Queen Camel. Schools include Hazelgrove Preparatory School and there is the nearby pre-school and primary school of Countess Gytha in Queen Camel. There is easy access to the A303 London/South West Road. Sherborne is approximately 8 miles to the South with Castle Cary approximately 5 miles to the north offering individual shopping and professional facilities with a mainline intercity railway station (1hr 40m to London). There are shops, services, cafes and restaurants available in Wincanton (Morrison's and Lidl), Sherborne (Waitrose and Sainsbury's), Castle Cary, Bruton and Yeovil, all within a 15 minute drive of Sparkford. Closer amenities are within a five minute drive and these include a local store, Post Office and surgery in Queen Camel, The Old Parlour farm-shop at Weston Bampfylde (1 mile) and the A303 bakery at West Camel. Sporting clubs nearby include Queen Camel Tennis Club; Sparkford Cricket Club and various golf clubs. The picturesque town centre of Sherborne is a short drive away with its coveted high street, buzzing, popular out-and-about culture, boutique stores, organic bakeries, coffee shops, restaurants, gastro-pubs and farmers market.  It is only a short drive to the centres of Sherborne, Bruton and Wincanton towns. Bruton is particularly popular with ex-London buyers and offers Hauser & Wirth Somerset - a pioneering world-class gallery and multi-purpose arts centre as well as fantastic schooling options. It also boasts The Newt - a country estate with splendid gardens, woodland, hotel, restaurants and farmland. This address is close enough to The Newt for the owner to qualify for the local residents membership. Local walks include Cadbury Castle, rumoured site of Camelot, and The National Trust's Stourhead is only 15 minutes from Sparkford. Sherborne also boasts the breath-taking Sherborne Abbey building, Alms Houses and world-famous Sherborne private schools. The mainline railway station to London Waterloo is in the centre of Sherborne, making London directly in just over two hours. This project is perfect for those aspiring family buyers looking for the ideal Somerset village home, for cash buyers from London and the South East looking for a home in this exceptional area or as a main home, pied-a-terre, residential or holiday let. BE QUICK!

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
