Situation

Kingston St Mary is a particularly sought after village that provides a very active community with many clubs and organisations and amenities to include a primary school, pub, parish Church, village hall, playing field and garage.  The village lies at the foot of the Quantock Hills which have been designated an area of outstanding natural beauty and provide miles of footpaths and bridle ways ideal for those with walking and riding interests. Indeed, there are many footpaths leading directly from the village. The property offers the dual benefits of an attractive semi-rural setting, yet is only about 4 miles from the centre of Taunton and about 3 miles from the main line railway station. The preparatory school of Kings Hall is less than a mile away and junction 25 of the M5 motorway is also readily accessible. Taunton, the county town, provides excellent shopping and leisure facilities, with a good range of schools, both in the state and independent sector, including Kings and Queens Colleges and Taunton School. Both Bristol and Exeter airports are also readily accessible, providing regular flights to Europe and the USA.
