Period charm with big garden, parking and easy access to town and rail.
Grade II listed period cottage with Hadspen stone elevations
A charming Grade II listed Hadspen stone cottage in Castle Cary, Geancot offers cosy period living with generous outdoor space. The house is presented neatly and works well as a permanent home, investment or a countryside bolt‑hole. The sitting room centres on a wood‑burning stove and the kitchen/dining room opens directly to the long, well‑stocked rear garden.
The property has two comfortable double bedrooms plus a smaller third room suitable as a study or nursery, and a well‑fitted family bathroom with a roll‑top bath. Off‑street parking for three cars sits to the front and the rear garden contains mature borders, a pond and several outbuildings including a workshop and wood store — excellent for storage, hobbies or a home gym.
Buyers should note the listed status: any structural alterations or external changes will need listed‑building consent and could limit refurbishment options. Internally some spaces have low ceilings and the overall floor area is modest (c.698 sq ft), so this will suit buyers who prioritise character, garden space and location over generous internal room sizes.
Conveniently located a short walk from Castle Cary town centre and the rail station with a direct line to London Paddington, this cottage combines rural charm with good transport links. It is freehold, in a very affluent area, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical as well as picturesque.
