Agents Note
63 South Street is not Grade II listed, however the workshop appears to form part of The Old Fire Station House, which is noted as Grade II listed on the Historic England website. The neighbours have a right of way to the rear of the property, accessing South Street via the workshop passage way.

The property is situated close to the centre of Milborne Port, a popular Somerset village with a wealth of facilities that include a Co-op food store, a health centre, two public houses, a well-regarded restaurant "The Clockspire", a primary school, a church and a village hall. Both the historic Abbey town Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil lie within short motoring distance providing between them 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 a 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 the M3, M25 route.

South Street offers a good degree of unrestricted parking on the road. Wrought iron railings border the front of the property with an area of gravelled garden and pedestrian path to the front door. The rear garden is a wonderful selling feature, a generous level plot with decked terrace and lawn, surrounded by mature shrub borders. Abutting the property is a stone workshop with power and light. Pedestrian doors within the workshop provide access from South Street to the rear of the property.
