Casterbridge Place is a small development of seven  houses and five apartments situated on the Somerset and Dorset border.

 Number 12 is an impressive two bedroom penthouse apartment being positioned on the second floor with stunning views from the living room across the Blackmore Vale. The property is ideally placed within easy reach of a mainline train station serving London Waterloo and the West Country, alongside key village amenities.

The internal accommodation offers around 771 sq ft (71 sq m)  of living space with characterful sloping ceilings, and a large sitting room featuring two dormer windows  enjoying far reaching countryside views. In addition, there is a welcoming communal entrance with an entry phone system, two double bedrooms, spacious fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, bathroom and electric central heating via radiators and two allocated parking spaces.

LOCATION: Templecombe is situated in the beautiful Somerset countryside and is well placed for the many amenities on offer, including a mainline railway station (London Waterloo 2hrs), post office, welcoming community café and Co-op convenience store. There is the village Church, primary school and doctor's surgery with dispensary, and the village hall offers space for community clubs (bowls, youth, mums & toddlers), while the recreation ground has a tennis court and skate park. A big attraction of Templecombe is its accessibility, being situated close to both the A303 and the A30 with fast routes east and west towards the motorway network. The mainline station is an obvious draw, while local comprehensive shopping, cultural and leisure amenities are found close by in the towns of Sherborne, Wincanton, Shaftesbury and Yeovil. To the south, the World Heritage Jurassic coast is within easy striking distance. The area is renowned for its schools, both independent and state and the surrounding countryside, much of which is an area of outstanding natural beauty, is a playground for sporting and leisure pursuits such as walking, riding, cycling, golf and field sports. There are village cricket clubs close by and sailing and other water sports are readily accessible on the south coast.
