This three-bedroom, Grade II listed cottage presents a significant opportunity for those interested in renovation projects. Nestled within a charming village setting, this property has not been available for purchase in over 45 years. Featuring characteristic stone elevations, gable dormers, and an added Victorian extension, the home boasts numerous period features awaiting restoration. Inside, you will find two spacious reception areas adorned with original fireplaces and flagstone flooring, complemented by a south-facing bay window that fills the space with natural light. While the kitchen and ground-floor bathroom remain functional, they are in need of modernization and reconfiguration to suit contemporary living standards.
Upstairs, the three bedrooms offer ample space with potential for layout changes, including the possibility of adding a first-floor bathroom—subject to appropriate planning approvals. An attached barn provides generous storage or workshop options and holds potential for conversion into additional living space, contingent upon consent from local authorities.
Although the garden requires attention and is somewhat overgrown, it extends generously and includes established trees and former vegetable plots. This outdoor space offers an excellent canvas to create a more structured landscape over time.
Ideal for investors or buyers looking to undertake a comprehensive renovation project, this property encapsulates traditional charm with substantial scope for personalisation. Located in Thornford—a village known for its rich amenities such as a church, village hall, public house, primary school, and convenient access to Sherborne and Yeovil—this cottage is well-positioned for both community living and commuting.
