Situation

This beautiful House is arguably located in one of the best situations in the village enjoying exciting and far-reaching views front the front and rear.

Hardington Mandeville is a popular village on the Somerset/Dorset border - many people who move there stay for many years, such is its attractiveness and sense of community. The village has a shop/post office and a public house, a number of thriving clubs such as gardening and amateur dramatics, making it an active village for people of all ages.

Surrounded by magnificent rolling countryside, this is a beautiful part of the country and yet it remains extremely accessible due to the A30, A303 and good rail links from Yeovil Junction, on the Exeter to Waterloo line. In addition, the M5 is within easy reach at Taunton and the village therefore enjoys the best of both worlds, being secluded yet accessible. The regional centre of Yeovil is within easy reach and has a full range of facilities whilst alternatives include Crewkerne, a typical Somerset market town and Sherborne, dominated by its Abbey and historic school. Yeovil 5 miles; Sherborne 10 miles; A303 7 miles; Crewkerne 4 miles (London Waterloo).

The Property

The accommodation comprises a reception hall, utility room, cloakroom/WC, sitting room with fireplace and wood burner, separate dining room, generous kitchen/breakfast room, first-floor landing with lovely views over its land, four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Outside

The property has dual access gravelled drives (in and out), one furnishing the main house and the second providing access to the stables, but both inter-connected. These provide ample parking/turning areas for various vehicles. There is also a detached garage/outbuilding to the rear of the house.

The Gardens
The main gardens for the house are laid to lawn and grass, heavily planted with shrubs, bushes and trees. The gardens extend to an orchard/utility area with pathways intermingled through the gardens and leading to access to the small paddock of circa 4.7 acres, which has its own gate to the lane. The second paddock circa 9.8 acres adjoins directly to the rear of the property. The views from the gardens, house and land are exceptional. There is a further 10.9 acres available by separate negotiation.
