A particularly spacious, detached, Grade II listed former barn located in the heart of this much sought after South Somerset village.
The Tithe Barn is believed to date from the 15th century. It was converted in the 2000s to provide stylish and comfortable accommodation with many character features, creating a stunning period home with all the comforts of modern living.
The accommodation is arranged around a spectacular vaulted reception hall, with flagstone flooring, exposed stone walls and an incredible series of oak beams. The striking double height space is flanked on two sides by a first floor gallery/walkway. There are a couple of sitting areas, one with a cosy wood burner, with lovely views over the gardens, and copious space for a large dining table - fabulous for entertaining. Leading from the hall is a sitting room, a bedroom with en suite shower and a study - ideal for working from home.The kitchen/breakfast room has exposed beams, stone flooring and lovely views over the gardens. A traditional four oven AGA is at the heart of the kitchen - with fitted wall and base units, a deep glazed sink and a central island. A tall larder cupboard provides heaps of storage. There is a separate utility room and cloakroom.
On the first floor, a galleried landing with exposed timber flooring overlooks the reception hall below and leads around to the bedrooms.The master bedroom has a dressing area and en suite bathroom with shower. There are two further bedrooms which share an en suite bathroom. All the bedrooms have exposed beams.
OUTSIDE
The Tithe Barn is approached via a small close leading to a gravelled parking/turning area.
The garden and grounds are a particular feature of this attractive property and are predominantly located to the rear - pretty formal gardens with lawns, gravelled areas and raised flower beds.There is also some decking which is ideal for alfresco dining or enjoying a drink with family and friends.Beyond is an area of grassland which is interspersed with a variety of young and mature trees. This could be utilised as paddock if required - with separate access to this area from Blind Lane. A gravelled driveway leads to a detached double garage with double doors and verandah and adjacent orchard with apple,plum and pear as well as fruit bushes including black currant, redcurrant and gooseberry.
Situation
Keinton Mandeville is a village in the South East of Somerset and lies midway between the market towns of Somerton to the West, and Castle Cary to the East. The origins of the village date back to the Roman times and its popularity grew both because of the local "Blue Lias" stone and being situated on the old coach route from London to the South West. The Church of St. Mary Magdalene dates from the 13th century. Today the village has a population of around 1,000 people and is served by "The Keinton Stores", there is also the local pub "The Quarry Inn".Somerton is just a few minutes away which is a picturesque town, originally the county town of Somerset and before that, possibly the capital of Wessex. Its focal point is the wide 17th Century Market Square with a Buttercross in the centre. The parish church, dedicated to St. Michael, is quite plain externally but contains one of the finest wooden roofs in the county carved by the monks at Muchelney Abbey. Somerton offers all the usual amenities of a market town, bars/restaurants and has a small independent supermarket.There are good transport links to London and the South west via the A303. Castle Cary railway station, just 6 miles away, offers an excellent direct rail service to London in less than two hours.Further to the local amenities there are excellent facilities at the larger regional centres of Yeovil, Sherborne and Taunton all within easy motoring distance.
Schools
Many of the area's best known independent schools are within easy commuting distance including Millfield, Kings Bruton, Bruton School for Girls, Wells Cathedral School, Downside, Hazelgrove and All Hallows.
