Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 4 Bedrooms
  • Large Plot
  • Generous Accommodation
  • Outbuildings
  • No Onward Chain
An individually designed substantial four bedroom family home set within idyllic walled gardens of 1/3 of an acre, situated in the heart of the village, garage, large workshop, generous parking. No Onward Chain.


Mill House was designed and built to exacting standards by a family that have occupied the property since it was built in 1981. This much loved family home presents a unique opportunity to purchase a modern property with 21st century conveniences set within glorious mature and established walled gardens amounting to 1/3 of an acre, having been built in the grounds of the neighbouring property Henstridge House.
The property offers a considerable amount of accommodation with particularly generous rooms throughout and would especially suit a growing family seeking a home they could develop and modernise or equally buyers who will appreciate the exceptional gardens and potential this village house presents.
A practical vestibule opens through to the entrance hall which leads to the generous ground floor living accommodation. The sitting room has a coal effect gas fire to its centre and connects into a conservatory which can be utilised throughout the year and enjoys a triple aspect across the wonderful gardens. The kitchen is an impressive space and has a bright dual aspect and can comfortably accommodate a breakfast table. There are a number of wall and floor cupboards, a pantry, a gas cooker and space for white goods. A separate utility room across the hall provides further cupboard space and worktops and has plumbing and space for additional whitegoods and access to the side of the property. Adjacent to this there is a shower room and separate cloakroom. The dining room is currently traditionally used, but would also make another great reception room, study or playroom.
Upstairs the bedrooms are arranged from a spacious split landing with two bedrooms at the front and two bedrooms at the rear. The bedrooms are a really impressive size with extensive storage options and lovely outlooks from all four across the garden and local countryside in the distance. There is a family bathroom which has the convenience of both a separate shower and a bath and besides the bathroom there is a separate wc.

Services
All main services connected, less gas, oil fired central heating. LPG gas for cooking and sitting room fire. Council Tax Band E.

Mill House is situated in the heart of the village a short step from both the village shop and the village pub. There is also a church, a village hall and a primary school, while Stalbridge, 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 property itself. The property offers easy access to excellent state and public schools, including Port Regis, Hazlegrove, Sherborne, St Mary’s and Bryanston. Communication links are good with a main line station about 7 minutes away at Templecombe, linking directly with London Waterloo, road links are along the A303 joined at Wincanton, giving swift access to London and the Home Counties on the M3, M25 route.

The property is approached from a private driveway, partially enclosed by double timber gates which lead to a parking area suitable for several vehicles, and providing access to a timber garage and a large workshop, both of which are equipped with power and light. The house is positioned in a corner of the plot surrounded by glorious walled gardens which amount to approximately 1/3 of an acre. The character walls which surround the garden are a striking feature of the plot and add a real depth and sense of history to the surroundings. Over the years the garden has been thoughtfully and lovingly tended to and has a variety of established planted borders some of which include fragrant and colourful rose beds and spring beds brimming with hellebores, daffodils and crocuses. The garden walls come to life with vibrant rambling roses and climbers and there are an array of specimen trees which add shape and form. The main body of garden is laid to lawn with areas of paving and stone chippings and within the garden there are two greenhouses, potting sheds and a fishpond. On the Western boundary a distinct archway leads to an intriguing area of natural garden flanked by mature trees and enclosed by wall.
