Bristol Road Sherborne, DT9

‘Tinkers Cottage’ is a simply lovely, double-fronted, period, character, natural stone, end of terrace cottage dating back to the 1600’s. The cottage requires some upgrading but is full of character features including natural stone fireplaces, exposed beams, window seats and original panelling and yet is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing. The property is situated in a popular residential address a short walk to Sherborne town centre and the mainline railway station to London, making Waterloo in just over two hours. The cottage boasts a superb, level rear garden enjoying a sunny westerly aspect. It is heated via mains gas fired radiator central heating and benefits also from uPVC double glazing and some triple glazing. The deceptively spacious, well arranged accommodation enjoys a good level of natural light and comprises entrance hall, sitting room, inner hall, dining room / second reception room, kitchen / breakfast room and ground floor bathroom. On the first floor, there is a landing area and three generous bedrooms. There is free, unrestricted parking on the street in front of the cottage. This unique, quaint home enjoys countryside walks a short walking distance from the door at the nearby Quarr Nature Reserve.  The property is only a short walk to the historic town centre of Sherborne with its superb boutique high street with cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne’s world-famous private schools. It is also a short walk to the mainline railway station making London Waterloo directly in just over two hours. The property is perfect for those aspiring couples seeking their ideal Sherborne home, couples cashing out of the South East and London market or cash buyers looking for their perfect Dorset home to settle in, potentially linked to the wonderful selection of local schools. It may also be of interest to the residential letting or second home market. VACANT.
