STUNNING NATURAL STONE GRADE II LISTED BARN FOR CONVERSION IN TOP DORSET VILLAGE - NETHER COMPTON! 'The Old Malthouse' is a superb, Grade II listed, natural stone barn situated in a fantastic 'tucked away' location on a no-through country lane, a stone's throw to the pretty heart of this prestigious Dorset village. This barn promises to be a unique home offering an eclectic blend of barn conversion character with exposed beams and internal stone elevations with open-plan contemporary living. This barn comes with a generous, level, private garden enjoying a sunny south easterly aspect. It also comes with a very large, private, gated driveway parking area providing parking for four cars or more and leading to a huge, quadruple garage / workshop. This outbuilding has scope to be converted to an annex, further accommodation or work-from-home space, subject to the necessary planning permission. The barn is planned to be heated by oil-fired radiator central heating. The proposed accommodation would extend to 1702 square feet and briefly comprise large open-plan sitting room area with mezzanine level above, kitchen breakfast room, utility room, dining hall, mezzanine first floor gallery, master double bedroom with walk-in dressing room and en-suite shower room, two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Nether Compton is one of several highly popular villages including Trent and Over Compton which lie in undulating countryside, tucked away from main roads but conveniently located close to the ancient historic Abbey town of Sherborne. With an active community, the village has a green, church, hall, pub, cricket club and well renowned Trencherman’s food club and delicatessen. This lovely barn is just a very short level walk to the village pub and pretty heart. There are superb countryside walks very near the front door – ideal as you will not have to put the children or the dogs in the car! It is a short drive to the the Abbey town of Sherborne with its coveted high street, buzzing, popular out-and-about culture, boutique stores, organic bakeries, coffee shops, restaurants, gastro-pubs and farmers market. Sherborne also boasts the breath-taking Sherborne Abbey building, Alms Houses and world-famous Sherborne private schools. It also has the mainline railway station in the centre of the town, making London Waterloo in just over two hours without changing your seat. The property is perfect for those aspiring couples or professionals looking for the ideal village development opportunity, couples cashing out of the South East and London market or cash buyers looking for their perfect West Country project to settle in, potentially linked to the wonderful selection of local schools. It may also be of interest to the residential letting, holiday letting or pied-a-terre market. The current builder / owner has got the costings and plans for how to complete this barn conversion and they are available to any potential buyer. NO FURTHER CHAIN.

SUCCESSFULLY SELLING AND LETTING PROPERTY IN WEST LONDON SINCE 1983 Welcome to our webpage; we'll get as close as we possibly can to extending the same type of warm welcome you'd receive if you popped into our offices in Acton, Ealing, Greenford, Isleworth, or Northfields.  That's our patch, and it's a patch we know well, having opened our first office in Ealing over 30 years ago. Things were very different then: we were without the Internet and with a full postbag, but the fundamentals of estate agency have remained the same.  We still pride ourselves on being a local, independent agency with client service, communication and integrity as our core values.   Whatever your property interests - residential or commercial, sales or lettings, property management or new homes, you'll find something of interest here.
