DESCRIPTION
Dating back to 1876, this converted school has been sympathetically renovated & is brimming with character. Idyllically situated in the heart of the charming village of Wereham, the property offers beautiful views over the picturesque village pond & Church.

The Old School offers generous & flexible living space that is simply stunning throughout, offering the perfect balance between character & contemporary whilst still retaining original features. Herringbone flooring runs almost throughout the ground floor, where you will find the sizable kitchen/breakfast room, offering the perfect space for keen chefs, with ample storage & work surface space. The useful utility room is accessed from the kitchen & leads straight out to the rear garden. There are two spacious reception rooms to the ground floor; the impressive drawing room offers an exposed brick fireplace with wood burner. The L-shaped dining room/bar area is ideal for entertaining as the bar opens to the kitchen/breakfast room, allowing both rooms to seamlessly merge together.

To the first floor you will find the 3 generous bedrooms; the master bedroom boasts an en suite shower room & enjoys views over the church, whilst the sizable second bedroom (previously two bedrooms) benefits from floor to ceiling windows letting in an abundance of light & overlooking the village pond.

Outside, there is a tarmac driveway providing off-road parking, whilst the rear garden is enclosed & mainly laid to lawn.
