An appealing three bedroom detached bungalow dating from the 1960s, occupying an elevated position with generous gardens amounting to approximately 0.61 acre, ample parking, two garages and outstanding far reaching countryside views. No Onward Chain.

Little Hills is a well-proportioned detached bungalow constructed in the 1960s, occupying a particularly appealing elevated position above the village of Nether Compton. The property enjoys a wonderful sense of space, privacy and light, with many rooms and the gardens benefiting from far-reaching views across rolling countryside and wooded landscapes beyond.
The accommodation is arranged almost entirely over a single level and offers a comfortable and flexible layout. A welcoming central hallway provides access to the principal living spaces, with a generous sitting room forming the heart of the home. This room is filled with natural light and enjoys a pleasant outlook across the garden, creating a warm and inviting space for everyday living. Adjacent to this is a separate dining room, ideal for both formal entertaining and family use, with glazed internal partitions helping to maintain a sense of openness while defining the spaces.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units and is supported by a practical utility room, providing additional storage and direct access to the outside. To the rear of the bungalow lies a comfortable family room or third double bedroom, which in turn opens into a bright conservatory. This space is ideal for enjoying the garden and position throughout the year, with views across the terrace and surrounding greenery.
The property offers a further two generous double bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant aspects over the garden. These are served by a family bathroom and a separate shower room. Overall, the layout offers scope for future enhancement or extension, subject to the necessary consents, allowing a purchaser to tailor the property to their own needs.

Nether Compton is a charming and sought-after village situated approximately three miles west of Sherborne, surrounded by unspoilt Dorset countryside. Sherborne offers a wide range of amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, doctors’ surgeries and the historic Abbey, together with a mainline railway station providing direct services to London Waterloo.
The area is well regarded for its excellent state and private schooling and offers an abundance of recreational opportunities including walking, riding and golf, with the surrounding countryside easily accessible from the property.

The setting of Little Hills is undoubtedly one of its most attractive attributes. The property is approached via a private driveway which opens out to provide ample parking and access to a detached garage.
The plot measures approximately 0.61 acre and the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, gently sloping and interspersed with fruit and mature trees, shrubs and well established plants, offering a high degree of privacy and seasonal interest. From both the garden and the house there are open, far-reaching countryside views, creating a peaceful and picturesque backdrop. Terraced areas close to the property provide ideal spots for outdoor seating and entertaining while enjoying the outlook.
The garden’s size and aspect make it particularly appealing, combining ease of maintenance with a sense of space rarely found so conveniently close to Sherborne. Storage is well catered for, with a detached garage adjacent to the parking and turning area, alongside a further garage attached to the bungalow (both with power and light fitted). There is also two useful garden sheds with light.
