Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 3 Bedrooms
  • Extended Detatched Bungalow
  • Extensive Garden
  • Garage, Workshop and Ample Driveway Parking
A well-presented and cleverly extended three bedroom detached bungalow, located in a favored address with much loved level gardens amounting to approximately a third of an acre. Ample driveway parking, detached garage and workshop. 

The Buffers is believed to have been built in the 1960's and is tucked away in one corner of the development away from passing traffic. The bungalow occupies a lovely position and has a wonderful garden room extension positioned to take advantage of the outlook over the generous garden. The current vendor has invested in the property, with key upgrades not only the kitchen and bathroom suites, but significant works to include electrical rewiring, new boiler, solar panels and insulation improvements. Internally the accommodation centres around a spacious and welcoming porch and hallway with the main living space to one side and the bedroom accommodation to the other. The sitting room has a southerly outlook providing a light and airy space with centrepiece woodburner and oak mantle. The living accommodation flows well into the dining area which seamlessly links with the kitchen area. The kitchen is fitted with floor and wall cupboards and has integral appliances to include eye level electric double oven, Neff induction hob, Bosch dishwasher and fridge. There is a separate utility area providing additional storage and plumbing for white goods. Beyond the kitchen the garden room measures an impressive 29’ x 10’7” and  makes an ideal place to relax and take in the views over the garden and has doors which lead out onto areas of terrace. Returning to the hallway there is a tastefully renovated shower room which serves the three bedrooms, all of double proportions. The bungalow has scope for a first floor attic conversion, the current vendors have installed roof lights for a hobby train room.

New Cross lies in a quiet backwater on the North side of the Dorset village of Longburton which is conveniently placed just three miles to the South of Sherborne. The village has a church and a public house 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.

To the front of the property a driveway provides ample parking and gives access to the garage with an up and over door which is equipped with light and power. The front garden has an area of lawn with shrub and flower borders and has access to the rear from either side of the bungalow. The rear gardens are particularly attractive and are a key feature of this property, amounting to approximately a third of an acre. For the most part they are laid to level lawn with further areas of herbaceous and shrub planting designed to give shape, form and colour throughout the seasons. To the right hand side of the garden there is a vegetable garden, greenhouse, workshop and garden shed, and a paved terrace runs along the width of the bungalow providing an ideal entertaining area. There is also a brick built ornamental pond. The gardens are private and have orientations to the south and east.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
