Granville Way, Sherborne, Dorset, DT9

A superb five bedroom, three bathroom beautifully appointed detached family home with integral annexe, double garage, generous gated parking and leafy garden setting.


Copper Beeches is undoubtedly one of the largest and most superior homes within this desirable development, built by Bellway Homes in 1999 and being offered to the market for the first time since construction, testament to the incredible home this has been for the current vendor.
The property has attractive brick elevations under a predominantly tiled roof, and during recent years has been significantly extended and re-configured to create an impressive and extremely versatile and substantial home, which will appeal to families and those seeking annexe accommodation for the purpose of multi-generational living, a self– contained office or perhaps to create an income. Internally the accommodation has a unique and stylish feel with much thought being given to the design, incorporating individual features throughout such as fitted wooden shutters to windows, coving, ceiling roses, panelling, bespoke joinery, double width doorways and fireplace.
A welcoming airy hall connects both the main living space and the additional annexe accommodation which is currently being used for extended family but could equally be integrated for use as a whole. The sitting room is a spacious and elegant room featuring a pebble gas fireplace with marble surround and is open plan to a wonderful kitchen/dining room which has striking inset skylights and French doors to the garden. The beautiful bespoke kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of hand painted cupboards and drawers with oak work tops over and inset twin Belfast sink. An island unit compliments the kitchen with further cupboards, breakfast bar, wine rack and matching oak top and really enhances this sociable family space.
