This charming end-of-terrace property, constructed in 1888 from natural stone, presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and investment. Spanning approximately 1729 square feet and nestled on a sizable plot of around 0.20 acres, this home boasts a large rear garden with delightful countryside views and advantageous sunny aspects. Located in the distinguished village of Over Compton, it is conveniently close to the historic town of Sherborne and mainline rail connections to London Waterloo.
The dwelling is not subject to Grade II listing, offering potential for significant expansion both at the side and rear, pending necessary planning permissions. While it currently requires modernisation to enhance its appeal, features such as uPVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating provide a solid foundation. The versatile layout includes an entrance hall, spacious sitting room with period fireplace, dining room with dual aspect windows, a functional kitchen/breakfast room, ground floor shower room/WC, and three generously sized double bedrooms on the first floor along with a family bathroom.
The outdoor space is equally promising with ample parking available via a private driveway leading to a detached garage and workshop. There remains potential to add structures such as a double garage or carport (subject to approval), making this property not only a residence but also an investment opportunity in a highly regarded area known for its community amenities and beautiful walks. With Sherborne’s recent accolade as one of the best places to live in the South West by The Times 2024 further enhances this property's appeal.
