GTH are proud to present this detached house and separate coach house located within the centre of the popular village of Milborne Port. Built in the 18th century, this former bakery has beautiful character features and has been adored by our current vendors. The property will suit a wide and varied buyer, with the versatility offered within both the main residence and ancillary accommodation. 
The internal accommodation of the main house is spacious and well thought out. As you enter the property the character of the cottage catches your eye with the exposed stone and beams, all of which you hope to find in a property of this age. The large living room is a stereotypical cosy cottage lounge with a window seat and a working stone fire place.
The kitchen/dining space is bright and airy. The dual aspect and skylight allows an abundance of light to shine though. The kitchen is fitted with base and wall units with work surfaces over. The ceramic double sink and drainer is fitted with a tap providing softened and fresh water. There is an integrated Neff double oven with a De Dietrich induction hob directly above with an extractor and a Smeg dishwasher. There is an integrated fridge and freezer. There is space for an American style fridge freezer. Additionally there is a built in cupboard space which has space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. At the end of the kitchen you will find a wet room which was fitted by the previous owners.
The former shop space has been converted into a studio. The studio is open plan with a tucked away utility area and WC.
The upstairs accommodation is as equally appealing. There are four bedrooms upstairs, all of which are doubles. The master bedroom is served by a tastefully fitted ensuite shower room with a rain power shower, WC, His & Hers basin and unit, heated towel rail and speakers. The remaining bedrooms are served by the main bathroom comprising of a hydrotherapy bath with a handheld shower, WC, basin and storage units. The character of the property is carried upstairs with each room having a unique feature.

The Coach House
The Coach House is situated adjacent to The Old Bakery. The Coach House has an open plan kitchen/dining space which has base and wall units with work surface over, electric De Deitrich self-cleaning oven with induction hob, Hot Point extractor, Bosch Dishwasher and counter fridge. There is space for a fridge freezer and a dining table. The Baxi boiler is located in the dining area. The kitchen side door leads into a private courtyard garden.  The lounge is a good size with character beams and under stair storage.
Upstairs you have two generously sized bedrooms served by a bathroom fitted with a bath and overhead shower, WC, basin and heated towel rail.
This dwelling would make an ideal holiday let or a classified space for family members.

Agents Note
The former shop frontage is still classed as retail with no business rates payable whereas The Old Bakery is classed as a residential property. Planning permission has been obtained to change the retail unit to a residential unit (with the effect that both units will be merged into one residential unit). Planning permission expires on 29 October 2024

The property is held on two separate titles. Therefore if required, it is possible for The Coach House and Old Bakery to be split and sold by separate negotitation.

The Old Bakery lies within the centre of the popular village of Milborne Port which has an unusual number of amenities including several churches, three public houses, a primary school and a number of good local shops. Both the historic Abbey town of Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil lie within short motoring distance providing between them an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area with many walks to be had from the village itself while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling.
Communication links are good with a main line station at Sherborne linking directly with London Waterloo are along the A303 joined at Wincanton giving swift access to London and the Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.

The courtyard is laid to tarmac that was only installed a few years ago. You can park approximately 3-4 cars within the courtyard. Tucked away you will find a paved garden area with raised beds. Alongside a storage shed with light & power along with an outside tap.
