Accommodation
One Creech View is a delightful country cottage, enjoying an enviable position in a village renowned for its rolling countryside, strong community and excellent access to both Bruton and Castle Cary. Constructed of attractive local stone beneath a tiled roof, the cottage is further enhanced by a beautiful wisteria that adorns the front elevation.

Stone steps rise to an attractive covered porch, opening into a welcoming sitting room full of character. Exposed ceiling beams, a feature fireplace with exposed stonework and a charming window seat create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while a large front-facing window fills the room with natural light.

To the rear of the property is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling and a stable door opening directly onto the garden. There is an excellent range of fitted units, a built-in oven and grill, electric hob with extractor hood, plumbing for a washing machine and ample space for a breakfast table, making it an ideal everyday living space.

On the first floor are two bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous double with extensive built-in storage and delightful views across the surrounding countryside. The second bedroom enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden and would equally suit use as a guest room, nursery or home office. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC, with a useful airing cupboard located alongside.

Outside
Immediately to the rear of the cottage is a charming courtyard garden, beautifully planted with mature climbing roses and clematis, providing a lovely space for outdoor seating. Beyond this are useful garden stores and a further enclosed garden, laid mainly to lawn and bordered by fencing, offering a private and manageable outdoor space.

The property also benefits from off-road driveway parking, together with access to a shared parking area to the rear.

About the area
Lamyatt is a charming and close-knit village, renowned for its community events and picturesque surroundings. The village hall hosts a range of activities, and the annual outdoor Shakespeare production is a notable highlight.

On the outskirts of the nearby town of Castle Cary (10 minutes) is the railway station with its direct line to Paddington, and the A37 just a two minute drive away provides access south to the A303 for London and the Southwest and north to Bristol and Bath. Castle Cary is characterised by period buildings constructed of the distinctive honey coloured stone for which the area is well known. It remains a delightful small market town with a number of traditional shops and boutiques within the Conservation Area in which a policy of strict planning control operates to prevent inappropriate development.

“The Newt in Somerset” just outside Castle Cary is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate there are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and house & garden shop.

Bruton, located 2 miles south east, dates back to Roman times and today is a charming small town with various shops and amenities, including the ‘Hauser & Wirth’ Art & Exhibition Gallery, ‘The Roth Bar & Grill’, the Michelin-starred 'Osip', the ever-popular dining experience ‘At The Chapel’, and of course an excellent choice of schools including King's School and Sexey's School.

The area offers an excellent choice of schools, including King’s Bruton, Sexey’s School, and Hazlegrove Prep School, alongside a range of good state and independent options.
