VACANT. ‘Vivenda’ is a substantial (1671 square feet), link-detached, mature bungalow situated in a choice edge-of-village location and standing in a generous level plot and gardens extending to 0.14 acres (approximately). The rear garden is simply stunning, boasting fabulous privacy, a south-facing aspect and backing on to countryside. There is private, gated driveway parking for six cars or more including space to park a caravan or motorhome. The driveway leads to an attached one-and-a-half size garage / workshop. The main property requires some cosmetic updating. However, it boasts fantastic scope for extension and reconfiguration, subject to the necessary planning permission. It is heated by oil-fired radiator central heating and an open fireplace. It also benefits from uPVC double glazing. The highly flexible accommodation enjoys good levels of natural light from large windows and a sunny southerly aspect at the rear. It comprises entrance porch, entrance reception hall, large sitting room / dining room, conservatory, kitchen / breakfast room, side lobby with internal access to the garage, two generous ground floor double bedrooms and a ground floor shower room / WC. On the first floor, there is a large landing area offering office space, eaves storage and a master double bedroom with en-suite shower room. There are fabulous countryside walks and village walks from nearby the front door. It is also a short walk to the pretty village centre. This wonderful home is situated set-back from the road near the centre of the sought-after village of Thornford in Dorset – only a very short drive to both Sherborne and Yeovil town. Thornford village is one of the closest villages to Sherborne town. It is incredibly sought-after and properties of this nature very rarely come to the open market. Thornford offers a superb public house, primary school rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted, village store and post office, village hall, parish church and its own cricket club.
