High Street, Henstridge, Templecombe

VACANT - NO FURTHER CHAIN. '4 Fountain Place' is an attractive, natural stone, mid-terrace house offering deceptively spacious accommodation with three double bedrooms. The house is situated in a coveted 'tucked away' location in the heart of this pretty Somerset village - a short walk to the lovely village centre and excellent amenities. The house comes with a private patio garden arranged for low maintenance purposes, an allocated parking space for one car plus visitors parking for residents of Fountain Place. The property benefits from electric under floor heating throughout and timber double glazing. The house is immaculately presented and enjoys excellent ceiling heights and a wonderful flow of natural light from a sunny east-to-west aspect and dual aspects. The surprisingly spacious accommodation comprises entrance reception hall, open-plan contemporary living area consisting of sitting room area and kitchen / dining room area plus ground floor WC / cloakroom. There is a landing area on the first floor plus three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is a large loft area, ideal for loft conversion (subject to the necessary planning consent). There are fantastic rural dog walks not far from the front door as well as a short walking distance to excellent village amenities and the pretty village centre. This house is set in a highly sought-after, exclusive residential address near the centre of Henstridge and the pretty parish church. The village of Henstridge has a church, two public houses, a village shop and a primary school at its centre and additional local services found nearby at Stalbridge where there is the popular Dikes independent supermarket and a range of local shops. It is two miles away from the mainline railway station to London at nearby Templecombe.

The house is a very short drive to Sherborne town with its coveted boutique high street and bustling out and about culture, markets, cafes, Waitrose store, restaurants, world famous private schools, breath-taking abbey building and mainline railway station making London Waterloo in just over two hours. Sherborne has also recently won the award for the best place to live in the South West by The Times 2024. It also boasts ‘The Sherborne’ – a top class, recently opened arts and conference centre plus restaurant that is in the building of the original Sherborne House.
