The Dwelling

In need of renovation and updating, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers an excellent opportunity to create a comfortable property within a sought-after area of Sherborne. Occupying a generous corner plot with gardens to the front and rear, together with a driveway and single garage, the property offers well-proportioned and flexible accommodation.
