Description

VACANT - NO FURTHER CHAIN! FOUR DOUBLE BEDROOMS! DOUBLE GARAGE AND WALLED GARDEN! 16 Kenelm Close is a deceptively spacious (1949 SQUARE FEET), double-fronted, modern, detached house with attractive bay windows, situated in a prime, ‘tucked-away’ residential, cul-de-sac address off the prestigious Bradford Road – a short walk to the heart of this picturesque Dorset town and mainline railway station to London Waterloo. The property has gated, enclosed driveway parking for three to four cars leading to a large double garage at the rear. There is a generous, lawned, walled garden at the rear plus patio seating area. The house enjoys pleasant views at the front beyond neighbouring properties towards surrounding hills and countryside as well as a sunny south-easterly aspect. The deceptively spacious accommodation benefits from good levels of natural light and comprises entrance reception hall, sitting room with dual aspect, dining room / office, open-plan kitchen / breakfast room, utility room and ground floor WC / cloakroom. On the first floor there is a landing area, master double bedroom with en-suite shower room, three further double bedrooms and family bathroom. The property is enhanced by mains gas fired radiator central heating and uPVC double glazing. There are lovely countryside walks from nearby the front door – ideal as you do not have to put the dogs or the children in the car! The popular, historic town centre of Sherborne is only a short walk away with its superb boutique high street, cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne's world-famous private schools. It is also a short, level walk to the mainline railway station to London Waterloo – making the capital directly in just over two hours.  The property is perfect for those couples or families looking for the ultimate Sherborne town home to settle in, buyers cashing out of the South East and London market or cash buyers looking for their perfect pied-a-terre / home to move to, potentially linked to the wonderful selection of local private schools. This lovely home must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated. It is vacant and comes with no further chain.
