The beautiful town of Sherborne is centred around the Abbey, founded in 705 and renowned for its spectacular fan vaulting, and which sets the tone for the whole town which is widely known across Dorset, Somerset and the southwest for its beauty.

Our office occupies a Grade II listed property in the heart of the town, and the large shop window is highly visible to those passing by. It fits neatly into our regional network of Shaftesbury, Dorchester, Taunton and Exeter. Liaising with these offices, we sell all types of property throughout West Dorset, South Somerset and East Devon, including townhouses, cottages, village properties, rectories, manor houses and small farms.

This area is particularly noted for its schools, beautiful coast and countryside and is much more accessible than many think, being a little over two hours from London by both road and rail.
