2 bedroom house

UNEXPECTEDLY REAVALIABLE! A delightful two bedroom Grade II listed terraced cottage with walled garden, located in a prime central Sherborne location. NO ONWARD CHAIN.


Lavender Cottage is a Grade II listed cottage favourably located in a popular town location. The property was built in the 18th century with character stone elevations under a tiled roof, significantly extended in the late 1980’s.
The internal accommodation is deceptively spacious with well proportion rooms and good ceiling heights. The ground floor accommodation has a great sense of connection between reception areas. Character features include exposed stonework, beams and feature fireplaces. The kitchen forms part of the extension built in 1988 and is fitted with base and wall units with work surface over. There is space for white goods and a most useful pantry and an additional cupboard where the Worcester boiler will be found. The boiler is 10 years old and has been regularly serviced. The French sliding doors lead onto the patio.

Upstairs you will find two good size double bedrooms, both of which have built in storage. These two bedrooms are served by a bathroom comprising WC, basin, wall mounted vanity unit and bath with an overhead shower.

Long Street is just two minutes walk into the town, the historic Abbey town of Sherborne’s main thoroughfare, and within walking distance of many of the towns amenities. Those amenities include a mainline railway station, two supermarkets, three doctors surgeries 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 within the area while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with the 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 M3, M25 route.

The garden at the rear is a tiered, walled and private. As you exit the kitchen through the French sliding doors you step onto the patio which is an ideal spot for a dining area to appreciate the evening sun. There are a few steps up to the next level which is laid to lawn with a summer house conveniently placed at the end of the garden.
