Stylish Family Living with Contemporary Open-Plan Design, Generous Garden & Garage and Parking Areas

Beautifully presented throughout and thoughtfully styled with a modern, lifestyle-led finish, this impressive four-bedroom detached home offers spacious and versatile accommodation ideal for growing families, home working and entertaining alike.

Set within a modern residential development on the edge of Sherborne, the property immediately stands out with its attractive double-fronted appearance, garage and generous driveway parking - with further off road parking to the other side of the property with a dropped curb (and local authority consent). Inside, the interiors feel calm, contemporary and exceptionally well cared for, with a cohesive palette, excellent natural light and practical family-friendly spaces throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to the main living spaces with a superb dual-aspect living room with ample space for relaxing and entertaining. Soft neutral décor, warm flooring and large windows create an inviting atmosphere, while the open connection through to the kitchen/dining space gives the home a sociable flow.

To the rear, the spacious kitchen/dining room acts as the true heart of the home. Designed with both practicality and style in mind, it features extensive worktop space, modern fitted units, integrated cooking appliances and a breakfast bar, alongside ample room for family dining. French doors open directly onto the garden, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for summer gatherings and everyday family life.

A separate office/snug provides valuable flexibility and would work equally well as a playroom, home office, gym or second reception room depending on lifestyle needs. A utility area and downstairs cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms arranged around a bright central landing. The master bedroom benefits from fitted storage and a contemporary en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom with shower over bath.

Externally, the rear garden is a standout feature - generous in size, predominantly laid to lawn and offering multiple seating areas perfect for entertaining, family time or simply enjoying the sun. The generous sized garage provides excellent storage alongside further driveway parking and electric car charging point, and there is further parking to the other side of the property.

Overall, this is a home that balances practicality with modern design exceptionally well - offering turn-key accommodation in a format that suits contemporary family living.
