The property is offered with gas fired central heating and double glazed windows in most areas. A rare find in Sherborne, this property provides a well-rounded home with both garage facilities, attractive gardens and views, all within walking distance of amenities.   
A covered porchway leads through to the well-proportioned accommodation, with a welcoming entrance hallway providing access to a WC, cloak cupboard, storage cupboard and all key reception rooms. The open plan sitting and dining room lie to the rear of the property with an appealing southerly dual aspect outlook over the gardens and fields beyond. Typical of the era of build, there are wide picture windows allowing a plentiful supply of light. The sitting room is dual aspect with a feature fireplace and French doors to access the gardens. Further ground floor living accommodation includes a versatile study or family room with South facing outlook. The kitchen/breakfast room was extended in 2015, creating a wonderful entertaining space with Velux roof lights and doors to the sun terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary units and attractive granite worktops. Integrated appliances include a Bosch integral fridge/freezer, Russell Hobbs electric oven, AEG 4 ring induction hob and extractor hood over. An AGA is also used for cooking, a wonderful feature of the room. A pantry cupboard offers useful additional storage and there are further large storage cupboards in the dining room. A side lobby houses plumbing for a washing machine, alongside a separate boiler cupboard. Perfect for families, the four bedrooms are of good proportions, the property architecturally designed to take advantage of the Southerly open aspect. The principal bedroom is beautifully proportioned with fitted wardrobes and a connecting en suite. A pleasant family bathroom and separate WC complete the first floor configuration.

West Winds is positioned on the north west side of the historic Abbey town of Sherborne. Sherborne is a particularly attractive Abbey town with a conservation area to its centre and a good number of amenities including the Abbey, a main line station, two doctors surgeries, a library and a comprehensive range of shops, public houses and restaurants. The local regional centre of Yeovil lies within short motoring distance and with Sherborne provides an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound with the area with golf clubs at both Sherborne and Yeovil while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with the main line station 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.

West Winds sits centrally within the third of an acre plot. A block paved driveway provides parking and turning for a number of cars and access to the detached garage that is equipped with double metal doors, power and light. The garage offers enough space for parking, workshop and utility space. The gardens are much loved and wrap around the property. A recently laid paved sun terrace abuts the double doors from the kitchen, surrounded by raised beds and mature borders, a wonderful private space from which to unwind and entertain. There is a generous area of well-kept and level lawn, perfect for a family game of cricket or croquet. The garden is also very productive, with a vegetable garden, greenhouse, fruit cage and a variety of fruit trees to include apple, cherry and fig, further punctuated by an array of ornamental trees. A pathway bordered by an ornamental pond, returns you to the front of the home.
