About the inside:

Spanning three floors, this exceptional family home offers spacious, versatile, and flexible living space, including the potential for a self-contained area for a dependent relative or family member seeking their own space. Upon entering the home through the front door and covered porch, you step into the main reception hall, which features a bespoke wooden staircase with glass balustrades leading to the first-floor galleried landing. From here, glazed doors open into the open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, which includes double-glazed sliding doors that provide access to the paved seating area. The bespoke kitchen, handcrafted and painted by Tom Howley Kitchens, features granite countertops, a wooden breakfast bar, integrated appliances, and a shelved pantry. Internal glazed doors lead from the kitchen/dining/family room to the sitting room, which is enhanced by a sun lantern and glazed doors opening to the garden. The ground floor also includes a separate snug/home office and a WC. A hallway leads to the boot room, laundry room, and plant room, all of which are fitted with wall and base units, as well as bespoke seating and hanging areas.

On the first floor of the main building, a galleried landing with a laundry chute provides access to all bedrooms and bathrooms.

The first floor also houses an additional double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower. Stairs lead from the first floor to the second floor, where two double bedrooms, each with en-suite shower rooms, are located.

An additional staircase from the ground floor leads to a landing area with a bedroom/study.

About the outside:

The property is accessed through electronic gates, flanked by stone walls with a built-in intercom system. A lit, tree-lined gravel driveway leads to the ample parking area, attached double garage, and workshop. Lawns on either side of the driveway are adorned with a variety of trees and shrubs. A personal gate from the driveway provides access to the side and rear gardens, which are predominantly lawned. Surrounding the gardens is a beautiful paved terrace, perfect for al fresco dining and enjoying summer evenings while taking in the gardens and countryside views. Additional features include a fire pit with a seating area, a water feature, an attenuation pond, covered storage, and a wood store. At the bottom of the garden, there is a Klargester treatment plant. Behind the garage, there is an area suitable for a vegetable garden and storage.

About the area:

Ditcheat is a thriving ancient village (mentioned in the Doomsday Book as belonging to Glastonbury Abbey) that is of semi-rural nature and is positioned 3 miles to the north of the ever-popular town of Castle Cary. The village is probably best known for being the home of Paul Nicholls’ racing stables and Barber's farmhouse cheese. Amenities within the village include popular village public house “The Manor Inn”, a well-attended Norman Church and an active village hall with clubs and societies for most walks of life.

Ditcheat is well situated close to the market town of Bruton, which has been featured recently in The Times as the most fashionable place in Britain along with editorials in Vogue and Country Life and is well renowned for its schools & restaurants. Castle Cary is also a pretty market town that is easily accessible, with a bustling High Street.

The village is well placed for many of the West country's well known independent schools including Bruton School for Girls, Sexeys, Kings Bruton, Downside, Millfield, Sherborne, Wells Cathedral, Hazlegrove, Port Regis and All Hallows. Bruton and Upton Noble Primary Schools are also close by as well as Ansford Academy. Castle Cary boasts a mainline station to Paddington and Templecombe line to Waterloo, along with Bruton station. Major routes with A303 to London and Exeter, A37 to the historic cities of Bath and Bristol and motorway connections making the southwest easily accessible and commuter viable.
