5 bedroom bungalow

Requiring full refurbishment throughout, Dulce Domum offers an exciting opportunity to create a stunning home in a tranquil, semi-rural location on the fringes of the highly regarded village of Sherfield English. This unique, predominantly single storey home enjoys a perfect setting amidst an open farmland frontage and sylvan backdrop, benefitting from floor to ceiling windows within private grounds approaching three acres. The property does provide an impressive arrangement of accommodation in excess of 3000 square feet, including five bedrooms all with en-suite provision and an impressive detached annex, ideal for dual occupancy. It was originally cleverly arranged with a combination of formal and informal reception rooms, enjoying immense natural light typified by the vaulted sitting room offering full width windows to the gardens which feature an outdoor heated swimming pool.

Sherfield English is still quite largely a farming community with most of its houses, cottages and isolated farms scattered along narrow leafy lanes, unseen by those who pass through on the main road. The active church, St Leonards, houses some fine Art Nouveau style stained glass windows and a particularly fine set of bells. The impressive pavilion and recreation ground serve the football, bowls, croquet, tennis and cricket clubs, as well as rounders which is played as an annual competitive, but good humoured, tournament.
Other amenities in the village also include Glebe Garage, Gilberts Nursery, Dandy’s Ford Fishery tea rooms. The Hatchet public house is renowned for its real ales and home cooked food and is a traditional child and dog friendly public house well frequented by locals. Primary schools are in Awbridge and Whiteparish and there are school buses for Romsey and the Salisbury Grammar Schools, with a choice of private education institutions.
