3 bed semi-detached house to rent

- The Nurseries, Castle Cary BA7

Property Reference: 3045347.

The property

A genuinely one of a kind three bedroom modernist house, set within a secure gated stone courtyard at the top of Castle Cary High Street. Created as a bespoke architectural home rather than a conventional development property, 4B The Nurseries is highly unusual within Castle Cary and across Somerset.

The house is arranged upside down, placing the bedrooms and bathrooms on the ground floor and the principal living accommodation above. This allows the elevated living space to take full advantage of the far reaching views across the Somerset countryside.

The property is offered furnished for a short or long term tenancy. An unfurnished arrangement can be considered for a suitable longer tenancy.

The upper floor

The first floor is formed as one substantial open plan living, kitchen and dining space, with exposed timber walls and ceilings and wide oak flooring throughout.

A dramatic full width picture window frames panoramic views over the surrounding countryside, while a large rooflight brings additional natural light into the centre of the house.

The bespoke kitchen includes extensive storage, integrated appliances, a long preparation area and a central island. A glazed balustrade surrounds the feature staircase without interrupting the open character of the room.

The ground floor

The three bedrooms are arranged on the ground floor, creating quieter and more private sleeping accommodation. Large glazed doors bring natural light into the rooms and provide direct access to the sheltered planted courtyard.

The bedrooms include fitted mirrored storage, exposed timber finishes and polished concrete floors.

The beautifully finished bathroom accommodation includes freestanding baths, frameless glass screens, large format finishes and a distinctive circular window overlooking the courtyard. The combination of timber, glass, stone and carefully selected colours gives the interior a character rarely found in a rental property.

Energy and connectivity

The house is constructed using highly insulated cross laminated timber and has been designed around low energy principles.

Air source heat pumps, underfloor heating and continuous mechanical ventilation help maintain a comfortable and stable internal temperature throughout the year.

Broadband internet access is provided through the development's existing internal network, with its cost included in the separately invoiced household bills charge. Rent is £3,200 per calendar month, excluding bills. Household bills, including broadband, will be invoiced separately by the landlord rather than transferred into the tenant's name, with the charging arrangements agreed before the tenancy begins.

The development

4B forms part of a small modernist development of two adjoining but entirely separate houses. Each property has its own private accommodation, with the gated entrance, courtyard and parking area shared with the neighbouring 4A property.

Some exterior photographs show the complete development. 4B is the long stone and glass house on the left, while the Corten clad house on the right is the separate adjoining 4A property and is not included in the tenancy.

Parking

Off street parking is provided within the gated courtyard and is shared with the neighbouring 4A property. Additional free parking is available nearby.

The area

The house is within walking distance of Castle Cary town centre, with its independent shops, cafes, pubs, restaurants and everyday amenities.

Castle Cary railway station is approximately three minutes away by car and provides direct services to London Paddington, Bristol, Bath, Exeter and the South West.

The surrounding Somerset countryside, Bruton and The Newt are also within easy reach.
