Dove Barn is a substantial five-bedroom barn conversion set in about 3.6 acres, offering a mix of historic character and considered modern interventions. Large windows, a glass sun room with underfloor heating and an open-plan kitchen/dining area create bright, flexible living spaces well suited to family life and entertaining. The property includes a separate studio, converted outbuildings and a paddock with separate access, providing versatile options for home working, hobbies or small-scale equestrian use.
The accommodation is arranged with three ground-floor bedrooms (each with ensuite) and a private first-floor wing of two double bedrooms sharing a family bathroom, making the layout adaptable for multigenerational living or long-stay guests. Practical features include ample off-street parking, an EV charging point, owned solar panels and a useful utility room. The formal gardens, terraces and mature specimen trees frame wide rural views and generous outdoor living areas.
Notable practical considerations are disclosed plainly: heating is oil-fired, the EPC rating is D, broadband speeds are very slow locally and the property sits in Council Tax Band G (quite expensive). Prospective buyers should commission a full chartered survey and check title/rights of way; some outbuilding sections remain open to the eaves and would require planning/consents for conversion.
Set in a peaceful hamlet close to Barton St. David and Keinton Mandeville, Dove Barn offers privacy with reasonable access to Somerton, Castle Cary station and regional schools including independent options. For buyers seeking a roomy country family home with significant garden, outbuildings and paddock, this property presents strong lifestyle appeal alongside a few practical trade-offs to factor into running costs and connectivity.
