The property enjoys a generous, private garden at the rear, driveway parking for four cars leading to a larger-than-average single garage. The house has uPVC double glazing, oil fired radiator central heating and some under floor heating. The accommodation enjoys a good level of natural light with double aspects in many of the rooms with sunny southerly aspects at the front of the property and views extending to countryside beyond neighbouring properties. It has been reconfigured and extended tastefully and comprises entrance reception hall, sitting room, contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining room enjoying a double aspect, large conservatory, study area (formerly bedroom three), two generous double bedrooms and a shower room/WC (formerly incorporating a bath). The property offers tremendous scope for further loft conversion or extension, subject to the necessary planning permission. It is located a short driving distance from the pretty centre of the highly sought-after town of Sherborne on the Somerset/Dorset borders. There are superb rural walks from nearby the front door as well as being within driving distance of the town amenities. This sought-after home is only a short drive to the centre of the beautiful, historic, Abbey town of Sherborne with its popular High Street, famous schools and mainline railway station making London Waterloo in just over two hours directly without changing seat. The property is ideal for aspiring families looking for a lovely village residence to settle in or pied-a-terre (linked with the schools) in the Sherborne area. It could also appeal to the cash buyer market looking to settle in this exceptional area. THIS PROPERTY MUST BE VIEWED TO BE APPRECIATED.

About this agent
SUCCESSFULLY SELLING AND LETTING PROPERTY IN WEST LONDON SINCE 1983 Welcome to our webpage; we'll get as close as we possibly can to extending the same type of warm welcome you'd receive if you popped into our offices in Acton, Ealing, Greenford, Isleworth, or Northfields. That's our patch, and it's a patch we know well, having opened our first office in Ealing over 30 years ago. Things were very different then: we were without the Internet and with a full postbag, but the fundamentals of estate agency have remained the same. We still pride ourselves on being a local, independent agency with client service, communication and integrity as our core values. Whatever your property interests - residential or commercial, sales or lettings, property management or new homes, you'll find something of interest here.
