Hound Street, Sherborne, DT9

13 Hound Street is a simply stunning, Grade II listed, period, end of terrace cottage situated in one of Sherborne’s most sought-after addresses – Hound Street. Hound Street is tucked away, only a stone’s throw from the town centre and mainline railway station to London Waterloo. The cottage is beautifully presented, enjoying an eclectic blend of many original character features including pretty multi-pane sash windows and beams but enjoying open-plan contemporary living space. The property boasts a fantastic courtyard garden at the rear offering excellent privacy – ideal for summertime entertaining with a gin and tonic in hand. A yearly parking permit can be purchased from the local council for nearby long stay carparks. It is heated via a mains gas fired radiator central heating system and cast iron log burning stove. It also benefits from fitted plantation shutters, bespoke solid oak floors and a Shaker-style kitchen. The well-arranged, deceptively spacious accommodation comprises entrance hall, large sitting room / dining room (25’ x 14’8), galley kitchen and ground floor WC / cloakroom. On the first floor, there is a landing area, two generous double bedrooms – both with fitted wardrobes and storage space and a first floor shower room / wetroom. There are great country walks from nearby the front door at Purlieu Meadow, The Quarr Nature Reserve and the Sherborne Castles – ideal as you do not need to put the children or the dogs in the car. The historic town centre of Sherborne is on your doorstep 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 to London Waterloo. Sherborne has also recently won the award for the best place to live in the South West by The Times 2024. It also boasts ‘The Sherborne’ – a top class, recently opened arts and conference centre plus restaurant.
