Priestlands Lane, Sherborne, DT9

A delightful 2 double bedroom cottage tucked away in a secure gated development a short walk from the town centre and amenities. Allocated parking space and courtyard garden. Vendor suited onwards.


Hidden within a peaceful gated courtyard just moments from Sherborne's picturesque town centre, 3 Antelope Place forms part of an exclusive conversion of a former coaching inn. One of only eight unique properties, this charming stone built home enjoys a wonderfully private position free from passing traffic, whilst being less than a two-minute walk from the town's principal thoroughfare with its excellent range of shops, cafés and amenities.
Ideal for those seeking to downsize, a secure lock-and-leave residence, or a characterful town-centre home, the property perfectly combines period charm with contemporary convenience.
Retaining an abundance of original character, this attractive Grade II Listed cottage features exposed beams, deep windowsills and impressive vaulted ceilings, all sympathetically enhanced by a comprehensive refurbishment. More recently, a replacement Worcester Bosch boiler was installed, providing modern efficiency and peace of mind.
The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and begins with a practical entrance lobby, offering useful storage space before leading into the welcoming hallway with cloakroom facilities. The heart of the home is the delightful open plan living/kitchen area, a light and inviting space with two windows overlooking the attractive communal courtyard. The contemporary fitted kitchen is exceptionally well appointed with a range of integrated appliances, including a Neff eye-level oven, hob with extractor hood, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washer/dryer.
On the first floor, a bright landing benefits from a vaulted ceiling and Velux window, filling the space with natural light. Both bedrooms are particularly appealing, showcasing dramatic vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and excellent fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom enjoys a charming Juliet balcony with views across the courtyard, while the second bedroom benefits from dual windows, further enhancing the sense of space and light.
The bathroom continues the theme of character and style, featuring a vaulted ceiling and fitted with a contemporary suite comprising a pea-shaped bath with shower over, vanity wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.
