3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Kings Road, Sherborne, Dorset DT9

An appealing 3 bedroom semi detached period home in a highly regarded residential position with great scope to modernise and extend. Delightful south facing gardens and views towards Honeycombe Woods. No Onward Chain.

The house is approached via a pedestrian gate with pathway leading to the front door. On entering, the accommodation flows naturally through the ground floor in a classic Victorian/Edwardian arrangement.
To the front of the property is the sitting room, a wellproportioned and welcoming space featuring a bay window that draws in excellent natural light, together with an attractive fireplace that forms a pleasing focal point.
Beyond the sitting room is the dining room, similarly wellproportioned and ideal for entertaining. This room benefits from a tiled centrepiece fireplace and a striking floortoceiling, southfacing window which overlooks and opens visual connection to the rear garden.
Leading on from the dining room is the kitchen, located at the rear of the property. The kitchen, along with the ground floor bathroom, now requires modernisation, offering buyers an excellent opportunity to reconfigure and update the space to suit modern living needs.
To the side of the kitchen are a side store and separate coal store. Subject to the appropriate consents, these areas could be incorporated into the main house to provide a utility room or additional accommodation, significantly enhancing the ground floor layout. Stairs rise from the dining room to the first floor landing, from which all bedrooms are accessed.
The front bedroom is a generous double room featuring a bay window mirroring that of the sitting room below.
The second bedroom, also a double, is positioned to the rear of the property and enjoys fine open views towards Honeycombe Woods, providing a particularly attractive outlook.
The third bedroom offers flexible accommodation, suitable as a bedroom, bathroom conversion, home office or nursery, and also enjoys pleasant rear-facing views. There is a separate cloakroom which completes the first floor. There is great opportunity to convert the attic into a fourth bedroom with en suite, which has been converted by many neighbours in the road.
24 Kings Road represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a characterful period home in a soughtafter location, offering generous accommodation, attractive gardens, and significant potential for modernisation and extension, subject to the usual consents. The property’s proximity to Sherborne’s historic centre, primary school and local shop, combined with its outlook and setting, makes it particularly appealing.
