Situation

This exciting new home, set in "Old Barwick" on the Somerset/Dorset border, provides the opportunity to experience country living and village life, yet still within a stone's throw of the regional centre of Yeovil, Sherborne and Dorchester.

Nearby Yeovil Country Park boasts 127 acres of beautiful countryside with its network of footpaths and waterways, riverside and woodland walks following the path of the River Yeo. The 20 acres that make up Ninesprings is believed to have been developed as an ornamental park for the Aldon Estate. You can enjoy plentiful walks leading to Aldon Park with wide open spaces, ideal for dog walking.

Ham Hill, to the west of Yeovil, is centred on a huge Iron Age hill fort and is popular for picnicking, walking and mountain biking in the grassy hollows of the old quarry workings. While the nearby historic town of Glastonbury is home to many myths, legends and of course the world-famous music festival, Glastonbury Tor can be seen in the distance from Stone Farm Barns.

As mentioned, located close to the border of North Dorset, the area provides a comprehensive range of excellent shopping, business and cultural facilities along with a desirable collection of restaurants, public houses and cafés.

Yeovil is a very sporty town with a number of golf courses in the area, rugby union played at club level, and Yeovil Town Football Club, otherwise known as the Glovers.

There are extensive opportunities for equestrian sport, and active sailing and fishing clubs are based at Sutton Bingham Reservoir and in the Chew Valley.

Being close to the borders of Dorset and the gateway to the Jurassic coast, you will find yourself within easy access to some of the most beautiful rural and coastal areas in the UK.

Yeovil has some excellent road and rail links across the south and to London, making this a very desirable countryside location. There are two mainline railway stations at Yeovil Junction and Pen Mill with frequent daily trains to Exeter, Bristol and London Waterloo. The town is also served by four international airports – Bristol, Exeter, Bournemouth and Cardiff, all within an hour’s drive.

There is a wide choice of schools locally, both in the independent and state sectors. The nearby secondary schools include Bucklers Mead Academy, Westfield Academy and Preston School Academy, along with Yeovil College of Further Education. There’s Perrott Hill School, which comprises a Montessori nursery, pre-prep and prep school, and other independent local schools include the Sherborne Schools, Millfield at Street, Hazlegrove, Bryanston, Wells and King’s College Taunton.

Outside

On accessing the drive, this will be tarmacked which in turn, when getting closer to the houses, will be gravelled. Plot A "Kingsbere" will have wooden fencing defining the boundary with a lawned area to the side, along with gabion baskets and panel fencing dividing both properties.

The rear garden will be laid to grass seed, together with an extensive paved terrace area and matching pathways running along the north and eastern side of the house.
