An immaculate two bedroom detached gatehouse style property, set in an exclusive collection of homes on the outer edges of the former Priory, within the market town of Castle Cary.
22 PRIORYGATE COURT, CASTLE CARY, BA7 7HT
Accommodation
22 Priorygate Court sits within the former grounds of the Grade II listed St. John's Priory which has now been beautifully converted into a private residence. The house was completed in 2021, as a result benefiting from the remainder of the 10 year NHBC warranty from new. The property has only been improved since new with the garden now well-established and practical improvements made internally.The front door enters a welcoming entrance hall where there is a staircase rising to the first floor with heaps of storage underneath and a cloakroom adjacent. Immediately ahead there is the sitting and dining room, a lovely light living space, enjoying a triple aspect and french doors leading directly out to the garden.

The kitchen has a range of modern fitted units with integral appliances including a fridge freezer, oven, hob with extractor above and dishwasher. Upstairs there are two spacious double bedrooms, the larger of the two is the master bedroom which has built in wardrobes. Both bedrooms have the use of the family bathroom which is beautifully appointed and has a bath with overhead shower, floor and wall tiling, a basin and w/c. Accessed from the landing there is a notably large storage cupboard.
Outside
To the side of the property there is parking for one car and additional parking alongside the quiet street by the house. The parking area could also easily be enlarged to fit more than one car if desired. To the rear of the house there is a quickly maturing garden with a lawn, deep borders, patio area and fencing offering excellent privacy. The backdrop of protected mature trees and the Priory itself makes this a very picturesque garden to enjoy. The owners have added a new shed, ideal for storage of garden tools and furniture.
About the area
Castle Cary is described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, the eminent architectural historian, as Somerset's prettiest town, set in beautiful unspoilt countryside. The town is characterised by period buildings constructed of the distinctive honey coloured stone for which the area is well known. It remains a delightful small market town with a number of traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area in which a policy of strict planning control operates to prevent inappropriate development. These shops cater for most everyday needs whilst Shaftesbury, Glastonbury, Street, Wells, Frome, Wincanton, Sherborne and Yeovil are all close by and Salisbury, Taunton, Bath and Bristol are in easy driving distance.

About this agent
About Us Roderick Thomas is an entirely independent firm with decades of experience selling and letting residential property. The firm has offices in Wells, Somerton and Castle Cary and covers a wide geographical area. The focus is to deliver a high level of service to clients to achieve the best sale or rental possible within a set timescale. The importance of widespread advertising and effective marketing is recognised and with each property, an individual campaign is planned. Having attracted buyers the next stage is negotiation and the firm prides itself on securing an agreement on the best terms and then progressing the sale to completion. Ongoing discussion with all parties including solicitors ensures an agreed timetable is maintained and hitches are anticipated when possible and addressed with action taken if necessary. Focusing fully on sales and letting and not being burdened with “head office” costs Roderick Thomas is able to offer highly competitive commission rates on all agency terms. These include: Sales SOLE SELLING RIGHTS – one agent is instructed to sell a property and a commission is paid to the agent on completion of the sale. JOINT AGENCY – two (occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in conjunction and share the commission on completion. The rate is usually higher than the sole agency. MULTI-AGENCY – two (or occasionally more) agents are instructed. They work in competition and only the agent who sells receives a commission on completion. Again this is usually at a higher rate than sole agency (but not always). All prospective sellers are invited to contact Roderick Thomas to discuss the sale of any property. Lettings We offer landlords a full residential lettings service covering every aspect of the market. This includes finding tenants and agreeing terms and this can be extended to include rent collection and full management if required. Each case is assessed individually to suit a client's needs. Our services are transparent and clearly stated. About You Above are details “about us” and our service. However, this is really about you. We try to make it as easy as possible for you to search for the right type of property in the right area and in the right price range. We very much hope it works for you.
