Description

‘20 Gunville Gardens’ is a surprisingly spacious four-bedroom home offering nearly 1,500 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation. Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac just a short walk from the heart of Milborne Port, this exceptional home offers the space and flexibility of a four-bedroom house, combined with the ease of low-maintenance living. Beautifully maintained by the current owners since new in 2010, this modern duplex property has been thoughtfully designed to provide generous, light-filled accommodation throughout. The dual and triple aspect rooms create a wonderful sense of space, while the flexible layout is equally suited to families with older children, professionals working from home, those looking to downsize on price without compromising on space or first-time buyers looking to maximize their budget.

The accommodation includes:

· Four genuine double bedrooms

· Two en-suite shower rooms plus a family bathroom and cloakroom

· A spacious curved sitting room filled with natural light

· A large open-plan kitchen and dining room, ideal for everyday living and entertaining

· A flexible fourth bedroom that also makes an excellent home office

Outside, the property benefits from two owned parking spaces together with a private enclosed garden – a low-maintenance paved courtyard designed for easy maintenance and perfectly situated next to your parking spaces.


Unlike many other leasehold properties, this home offers exceptional peace of mind with:

· Approximately 982 years remaining on the lease

· No ground rent

· No service charge

· Freehold ownership of both the garden and parking spaces

· Buildings insurance shared with just one neighbouring property



Located within easy walking distance of village amenities, countryside walks and the award-winning Clockspire restaurant, the property is also only a short drive from Sherborne with its superb boutique high street and cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne's world-famous private schools. The town centre also benefits from a mainline railway station offering direct services to London Waterloo in just over two hours.
