The Dwellling
Constructed in 1976, this four-bedroom family home occupies a prime position within a highly sought-after development, backing onto open countryside. Thoughtfully extended to provide flexible living space, the property benefits from a ground floor addition that includes a bedroom with an adjoining wet room. Well-presented throughout, the home features carefully considered interiors, including a sleek, bespoke German kitchen and modern tilt-and-turn windows, which frame far-reaching views over the neighbouring countryside.
Accommodation
Centrally positioned at the heart of the property is a welcoming entrance hall, providing access to the reception rooms and cloakroom. The living room, adorned with dual aspect windows, is centred around a charming log burner set beneath a Hamstone mantle. On the opposite side of the hall, the dining room sits adjacent to the kitchen. Designed to meet all culinary needs, the sleek, bespoke German kitchen leads into a galley-style utility room, offering additional storage and space for white goods. Beyond this, a ground floor bedroom and wet room can be found, with a rear door providing access to the garden, alongside wheelchair-friendly access to the front of the property.
The first floor features a light-filled landing with views over the neighbouring countryside. Three generously sized bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, are accessed from the landing, along with the family bathroom. The master bedroom further benefits from an en suite shower room.
Garden
Backing onto open countryside, the beautifully maintained rear garden features a level lawn bordered by established flower beds. A patio area sits adjacent to the lawn. The oil tank is positioned within the garden, alongside access to the front of the property.
To the front, a lawned area is complemented by mature flower beds, while a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a double garage with electric doors. The garage is fully equipped with power and lighting, offering excellent storage or workspace potential.
Situation
The property is situated in the peaceful village of Alweston, just a short motoring distance from the historic market town of Sherborne. This attractive rural community enjoys a strong sense of village life, supported by an active village hall and the popular Elms Eatery. Daily essentials are catered for by Oxford’s bakery, a small convenience shop now open six days a week.
The area is ideal for families, with the highly regarded Bishops Caundle Primary School nearby, offering an excellent standard of education. Sherborne itself provides a comprehensive range of amenities, including a variety of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, well-regarded schools, and healthcare facilities.
The property is also well connected, with Sherborne and Yeovil Junction railway stations both within easy reach, offering direct services to London Waterloo and other key destinations—making this an ideal setting for those seeking the balance of rural living with excellent access to town amenities and transport links.
