Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 3 Bedrooms
  • Generous Private Plot
  • Plentiful Parking
  • Well Maintained Gardens
  • Village Location
A detached three double bedroom bungalow in excellent order throughout occupying a glorious ¼ acre plot, garage and parking.

30 Kings Close is thought to have been built in 1975 as part of an attractive development of houses and bungalows in the favoured village of Longburton, which is only 3 miles from the beautiful Abbey town of Sherborne. The bungalow occupies a private position within the development, away from passing traffic and enjoys a wonderful aspect over the established gardens which have a beautiful wooded backdrop. In recent years the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of renewal and refurbishment to create a really lovely home. The renovation work has taken in all high cost items to include a contemporary fitted kitchen, utility room and shower room, ‘Rointe’ electric wall mounted heating, a new hot water cylinder and water softener,
replacement of all internal doors and new carpets and flooring throughout. The entrance hall has extensive storage which includes a large walk in storeroom. The sitting/dining room has superb picture windows with uplifting views across the garden. To the centre of the room there is a striking LPG log effect stove which is a lovely addition for the cosy winter months, and the dining area can comfortable accommodate a family sized table. The kitchen flows around from the living area and has been updated throughout with a range of white high gloss contemporary cupboards and drawers with work surfaces over, inset 1 ½ bowl sink and drainer and additional matching tall cupboards and breakfast bar. Integral appliances include an electric oven, Bosch microwave and hob, slim line dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. A separate utility room has matching cupboards and space for a washing machine and a dryer and there is a wc and access to the garden.
The three bedrooms are all of double proportion and have great storage options, the main bedroom has an excellent walk in wardrobe as well as built in wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a generous and modern well designed shower room which is partly tiled and has a large walk in shower cubicle with fixed glass screen, monsoon shower head and shower attachment. There is a unique white oval counter top basin with drawers beneath, a comfort height close coupled wc and a heated electric towel rail.

30 Kings Close lies close to the centre of the Dorset village of Longburton which is conveniently placed just three miles to the south of Sherborne. The village has a church, public house and village hall to its centre, while Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil provide 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 while road links are along the A303 joined at Wincanton giving swift access to London and the Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.

A sweeping driveway leads to the front of the bungalow and provides parking and access to the garage which has an up and over door, power and light. A side gate gives access to the beautiful rear garden which will particularly appeal to garden enthusiasts who will appreciate the large plot, depth and opportunities within the garden and the wildlife present. The garden is well established laid to lawn with well stocked shaped borders which display an array of colour throughout the year. The wooded backdrop of the garden is very inspiring and really sets this garden apart. Within the garden there are paved seating areas, an ornamental pond which has been relined and a greenhouse on a hard standing.
