Trendle street Sherborne, DT9

‘171 Trendle Street’ is a handsome, beautifully finished and presented, double-fronted, deceptively spacious (1461 square feet), Grade II listed, period cottage dating back to the 1600’s. It is situated amongst other pretty, period properties, in Trendle Street – one of the most sought-after addresses in the town centre conservation area in the shadow of the stunning Sherborne Abbey building. It is a very short walk to the high street and mainline railway station to London Waterloo. The cottage is steeped in history and retains fabulous internal and external character features including exposed coffered ceiling with period beams, flagstone floors, Hamstone mullion windows with leaded lights, window seats, working period panelled shutters and carved Hamstone open fireplaces. There is a superb walled garden at the rear (36’10 depth x 30’3 width) partly laid to lawn and partly herbaceous borders with a paved seating area. The house is enhanced by gas fired radiator central heating. The surprisingly spacious accommodation extends to 1461 square feet and comprises entrance hall, sitting room, dining room with study area, kitchen breakfast room, rear lobby, scullery/utility room and ground floor WC. On the first floor there is a landing area, three generous bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is also a sizeable attic space access via a loft ladder from the first floor landing. The current owners have vastly improved the property recently with new roof, thatch ridge, new boiler and cast iron log burning stove, new kitchen, decoration, floor coverings, radiators and much more.  It is only a very short, level walk to the sought-after, historic town 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 also a very short walk to the mainline railway station making London Waterloo in just over two hours. MUST BE VIEWED!
