The rear garden is west facing and enjoys good levels of sunshine and occasional sunset. The property also boasts private driveway parking at the side for up to three cars leading to a detached one-and-a-half size garage/workshop. This property is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing and offers superb scope for loft conversion, subject to the necessary planning consent. The popular, historic town centre of Sherborne with its superb boutique high street with cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne's world-famous private schools is just a short drive away. There are primary school options two miles away at the village of Queen Camel plus a useful private international school option at nearby Hazelgrove. It is also a short drive to the mainline railway station to London Waterloo, the A303 trunk road linking London to the South West and the useful town of Yeovil. The mainline railway station at Castle Cary is only 6 miles away. This cottage is perfect for those couples or families making the most of the cheap mortgages available at the moment, buyers cashing out of the South East and London market or cash buyers looking for their perfect pied-a-terre or semi-rural pad to settle in.

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.
