SITUATION
Bayford is a small village situated on the Somerset / Dorset border, approximately 1.2 miles south-east of Wincanton and five miles north-west of Gillingham.
The village is known for its strong community spirit with amenities including The Bayford Inn: a historic pub dating back over 250 years that has been purchased by a community benefit society of over 100 residents and is run as a not-for-profit hub. Bayford Village Hall was reopened in 2016 after major community fundraising and renovation and serves as a meeting point for local events. The village is close to local farm shops, such as Kimber’s' Farm Shop, which is approximately a 5-minute drive away.
The surrounding area is predominantly agricultural, characterised by rolling countryside and dairy farming. Despite its rural setting, Bayford is well-connected due to being located just five minutes from the A303; providing direct road access to London and the Southwest. Mainline railway stations are located at Gillingham providing direct services to London Waterloo, and Castle Cary with a direct service to London Paddington. The nearby towns of Wincanton and Gillingham provide a further range of services to cater for most everyday requirements including various supermarkets, opticians, chemists and a choice of independent and well-known retailers. A good choice of private and state primary and secondary schools are in the vicinity and leisure time can be spent in one of the many sporting clubs or local places of interest including Stourhead and King Alfred’s Tower.

OUTSIDE
The wrap-around gardens provide a delightful setting, featuring a versatile garden room ideal for use as a studio or hobby space, mature borders and shrubs, a large lawn and a west-facing summer house perfectly positioned to enjoy the evening sun. There is also an exceptional amount of parking with space for multiple vehicles and a caravan.

This is an ideal home for those looking to retire, accommodate multi-generational living or provide ample space for a growing family.

AML
Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365" to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
