Summary - HILLCREST FARMHOUSE ANSFORD HILL CASTLE CARY BA7 7JR
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot with barn conversion potential and direct station access.
No onward chain; motivated sellers
Hillcrest Farmhouse is a large, characterful 4-bedroom detached home set on a very generous plot with far-reaching countryside views. The house offers high ceilings, well-proportioned rooms and a traditional brick and slate exterior, giving a solid base for modernisation while retaining period charm. Its location on Ansford Hill provides a pleasant rural setting with direct footpath access to Castle Cary train station and nearby village amenities.
The grounds are a major asset: approximately 0.5–0.73 acres of established garden, mature trees and lawns, plus a sweeping driveway, double carport and detached outbuildings. The substantial barn and two workshops present genuine redevelopment potential subject to planning permission (STPP), useful for those seeking additional accommodation, ancillary income or workshop space.
Practical considerations are straightforward and should be factored into any offer. The property is chain free and sold by motivated sellers, but the house needs renovation throughout — the kitchen and bathrooms would benefit from updating and some work is likely on heating and windows (oil-fired boiler; secondary glazing). Council tax is above average. There is no flooding risk.
This home will suit families or buyers after a spacious rural dwelling with scope to personalise and add value. If you want a mature garden, strong privacy and the chance to convert outbuildings (STPP), Hillcrest provides a rare, flexible opportunity close to rail links and local schools.
