Description

Description

A substantial four-bedroom end of terrace character home offering approximately 1,904 sq ft of versatile accommodation. Forming part of a sympathetically converted former public house in the highly sought-after Dorset village of Leigh. Conveniently situated just a short drive from the historic market town of Sherborne, the property combines generous living space with period charm and excellent potential for modern family living.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and is centred around an impressive reception room extending to over 31 feet in length, providing a superb space for both everyday living and entertaining. Character features include exposed structural elements and an attractive fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The well-proportioned kitchen offers ample space for cooking and dining, complemented by a useful utility room and a ground floor cloakroom/WC.

On the first floor, the property offers four bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom, together with a family bathroom. The flexible layout provides an ideal arrangement for growing families, home working, or multi-generational living.

Externally, the property enjoys an attractive position within the village, benefiting from the character and history associated with the former public house conversion. The end-of-terrace setting provides additional privacy and a greater sense of space, while the surrounding Dorset countryside offers a wealth of walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits on the doorstep.

Leigh is a popular and picturesque village located approximately seven miles from Sherborne, renowned for its excellent range of independent shops, restaurants, supermarkets, mainline railway station and highly regarded schools. The area is surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside, making it an ideal location for those seeking a balance between rural living and accessibility.
