Description

A handsome two bedroom terraced town house situated in the heart of Sherborne, offering spacious and characterful accommodation arranged over three floors, together with a delightful walled courtyard garden, gas fired central heating and no onward chain.

Occupying a prominent position on historic South Street, The Old House is an attractive period property constructed of Sherborne stone and forming part of the town's rich architectural heritage. The property enjoys an enviable location within easy walking distance of the Abbey, railway station and the excellent range of shops, restaurants and amenities for which Sherborne is renowned. The Old House would appeal to a wide range of purchasers seeking a character home within walking distance of Sherborne's amenities, whether as a principal residence, investment property or lock-up-and-leave home.
The property is offered for sale with the considerable advantage of no onward chain.
Extending to approximately 1,217 sq ft (113 sq m), the accommodation is arranged over three floors and offers a wealth of character throughout, including sash windows, well-proportioned rooms and attractive period detailing.
The principal living accommodation is situated on the upper floor, where a generous sitting room enjoys excellent natural light and views over South Street. Adjacent is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of units and providing ample space for dining and entertaining, with Abbey views.
On the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom extending to over 17 feet in length. A family bathroom serves the bedroom accommodation. The attic space lends itself to many uses subject to planning.
