Description
Brought to the market for the first time since its conversion, Clanville Farm Barn is a striking and substantial detached barn conversion located just outside the highly regarded market town of Castle Cary.
Combining traditional charm with excellent flexibility, the property offers over 2,900 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation, alongside a significant range of outbuildings including a triple garage and a detached workshop with loft space, offering potential for annexe conversion (subject to the necessary consents).
Set amidst rolling Somerset countryside, the property enjoys an attractive rural setting with open views to the rear and a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity. The home sits within a generous wrap-around, mature garden, with well-established planting, lawned areas and various spots to enjoy the surrounding landscape. In total, the plot extends to around half an acre, offering a peaceful and private environment without being isolated.
The main house has been sensitively converted, preserving the character of the original structure with exposed beams, generous ceiling heights, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere throughout. The ground floor provides a versatile layout with a spacious entrance hall, elegant sitting room with feature fireplace, a separate study, and a formal dining room. The kitchen/breakfast room has a timeless country feel, with an adjoining utility and cloakroom. A conservatory to the rear brings in abundant natural light and offers the perfect spot to enjoy the views across the garden and beyond.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a generous space complete with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom. Three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the upstairs accommodation.
In addition to the main residence, the property features a triple garage, a detached garage/workshop with first-floor loft, and a stone outbuilding comprising a barn and store—altogether offering further potential for a variety of uses, from home working or hobby space to ancillary accommodation (subject to planning). In total, the built area extends to approximately 4,927 sq ft, which includes the main house, garages, and outbuildings.
Perfectly positioned, the property is just a short drive from the vibrant town of Castle Cary—with its mainline rail links to London, boutique shops, cafes, and excellent schooling—and is within approximately seven minutes’ drive of The Newt, one of the county’s most celebrated country estates and gardens.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful and expansive country home with further potential, set in a peaceful yet well-connected location. Early viewing is highly recommended.
