A beautifully presented detached three-bedroom bungalow set within 50 metres of Castle Cary High Street. 

The accommodation includes a porch, sitting room, conservatory, kitchen, cloakroom, three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. 

Outside, there is driveway parking, a south-facing seating terrace and a garden. 

Accommodation
Gannin Hyem has an extremely convenient location, within a 30-second stroll to the shops and cafes, making it ideal for a buyer looking to be close to amenities. The current owner has completed extensive improvements throughout, too, making it ready to move into immediately. 

The property is approached from a private yard which leads directly from the High Street, up to the driveway where a porch enters a lobby adjacent to the sitting room.

 The sitting room is a light and bright room located in the heart of the property, adjacent to the kitchen, conservatory, and a doorway leading to the bedrooms. The kitchen connects to the sitting room in a semi-open-plan style. There are newly fitted units with a ceramic sink, a mid-level oven and grill, plus an electric hob, and an integrated fridge freezer. At the back of the kitchen, there is a rear lobby with a back door, a cupboard and a cloakroom. 

At the front of the property, enjoying a pretty outlook over the handsome Cary stone houses nearby and up to Lodge Hill beyond, there is a conservatory which opens onto a south-facing seating terrace. 

The three bedrooms are all comfortable double bedrooms, and the master bedroom benefits from ample built-in storage. The bathroom is fitted with low-maintenance aqua panels for ease of cleaning, and features a walk-in shower, separate bath, toilet and basin.

Outside
Adjacent to the house, there is a driveway which provides secure off-street parking for several vehicles. 

There is a raised seating area with a lovely outlook and south-facing aspect, which is predominantly laid to gravel with a patio, and shrubs for privacy. In addition, there is a shed and a greenhouse.

About the area
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 several traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area, and 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 within easy driving distance.

“The Newt in Somerset”, just outside Castle Cary, is home to beautiful countryside walks set on the grounds of a Georgian country estate. The estate has a Hotel & Spa, a Farm shop, restaurants and a 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.
