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.

“The Newt in Somerset” just outside Castle Cary is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate, there are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and house & garden shop. On the outskirts of Castle Cary is the railway station with its direct line to Paddington and the A303 Road link is a few miles south. There are excellent state schools in the area - Ansford Academy boasts excellent exam grades and independent schools include the Sherborne and Bruton schools, Millfield, Wells Cathedral, Hazelgrove and Port Regis.

1 Moore Villas enjoys an elevated position in the centre of the town being within walking distance of all amenities. The property has been owned by the same family since 1980 which stands as testament to what a fantastic family home this is. Over the years, the house has been extended and improved although now requires some cosmetic updating to bring it back to its full potential. Steps lead up to the front porch at the front of the property. Leading into the house there is a hallway with storage underneath the stairs and the sitting room on the left hand side. The sitting room is a well proportioned reception room which has commanding views out in a westerly direction. The kitchen has a range of fitted units with an integrated mid-level oven and grill and electric hob. There is wood-effect flooring and worktops and within the units there is plumbing for a washing machine. Adjoining the kitchen there is a dining room which has sliding glass doors connecting into the annexe/study.

The annexe was an extension adding during the current owners tenure which was built with an adjoining bath room and a separate front door. It would make an ideal ground floor bedroom area for a buyer with mobility issues. If preferred this could be used as an additional reception room or study. Also on the ground floor there is a rear extension, within which there is the family shower room, the boiler cupboard and a rear hall leading to the garden. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, the largest being the bedroom at the front which has fantastic westerly views. Also, there is a cupboard which is accessed from the landing.

To the rear of the property there is a low maintenance, enclosed courtyard garden. In addition there is a detached garage with electricity within and a parking space for one car.
