The Avenue, Sherborne, Dorset, DT9

This five-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house was built in the 1890s and is arranged over three floors. Period details include high ceilings, decorative cornicing, dado rails and sash windows. The ground floor has a hallway with parquet flooring, a bay-fronted dining room, a drawing room with an open fire and French doors to the terrace, and a conservatory. A kitchen, pantry, utility room, cloakroom and store complete this level, with access between the front drive and rear garden. On the first floor are two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, each with fitted wardrobes and a wash hand basin, together with a family bathroom. Two further double bedrooms occupy the top floor, alongside an attic room that may offer scope for conversion to a bathroom, subject to the necessary consents. The enclosed rear garden includes a terrace, lawn, brick paths, vegetable garden and mature planting. A front driveway and car port provide off-road parking. The house is in walking distance of Sherborne town centre and its railway station. The listing describes it as an opportunity to update a substantial period property; any proposed changes or attic conversion would need appropriate checks and consents.
