  • Enclosed Garden
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.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 25, 2022

    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: obtained from Ofcom on May 25, 2022

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on August 31, 2022 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
