The property, which forms part of an old forge, is in need of modernization but still retains its original inglenook fireplace and features a pleasant open-plan sitting room and kitchen with a large inglenook fireplace and fitted log burner. The cottage has two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and benefits from a private courtyard garden and a good-sized off-road parking area for multiple vehicles. The village of Keinton Mandeville has a range of amenities, including a church, village stores, pub, farm shop, and primary school, and is close to the main trunk roads, principal local towns and villages, and Castle Cary mainline rail station.
