Formerly part of the Church and Vyne estate, this circa 17th century residence enjoys uninterrupted views over the village green and boasts a beautifully presented private plot measuring in excess of a quarter of an acre. Exemplifying the quintessential English Cottage from around four hundred years ago, it is fair to say that the purchase of this property represents ownership of a piece of our history and is unlike any other property in the tranquil village of Sherborne St. John.
The current owners have modernised much of this Grade II listed property with upgraded Hive heating, modern boiler, sympathetic upgrades and perhaps most importantly an updated (in 2021) long straw thatched roof. Character features are naturally part of the fabric of the home, and these include exposed oak beams throughout, a magnificent Inglenook fireplace, wooden flooring, and a central Aga in the kitchen. Please refer to the floorplan for the layout and accommodation sizes.
Nestled on a quiet country lane and boasting a 0.27 acre plot, the majority of the garden faces to the south and enjoys rolling lawns, of which were former ancient earth works. The outside is as charming as the inside with apple, pear and plum trees, a treehouse, a vegetable patch, and an authentic log shed.
There is a detached double garage (part of which is currently used as a separate storage room) with power and lighting, as well as driveway parking for numerous vehicles.
Local amenities include the village shop, school, and a pub.
