Description

EweMove present this charming property that is part of a former stable block, thoughtfully converted in 1991. Nestled within a highly sought-after courtyard development in the popular village of Over Compton, it enjoys a peaceful and private setting off a secluded, private road.

The home is accessed through an attractive walled front garden, creating a welcoming first impression. Inside, Larkspur boasts a spacious open-plan ground floor, featuring a characterful, bright sitting, dining and kitchen area. The sitting space is enhanced by a striking fireplace with a multi-fuel wood burner, while characterful details such as exposed beams and elegant oak flooring add warmth and charm. The kitchen is tastefully appointed with bespoke cabinetry and integrated appliances. A handy understairs cupboard provides additional storage and houses the hot water cylinder.

Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, both showcasing exposed beams and a dressing room/study. The bathroom is well-equipped with a recently updated suite.

The home also features double glazing and modern, energy-efficient electric heating, ensuring comfort and efficiency throughout.

Nestled in the picturesque Dorset countryside, the charming village of Over Compton offers a peaceful rural lifestyle while benefiting from excellent access to the historic market town of Sherborne. Surrounded by rolling fields and scenic walking trails, Over Compton provides a tranquil setting with a strong sense of community and stong relations with the neighbouring villages of Nether Compton and Trent. Despite its idyllic seclusion, the village is just a short drive from Sherborne, renowned for its stunning Abbey, vibrant high street, independent shops, cafés, and excellent schools, including the prestigious Sherborne School. Yeovil, the regional centre of south Somerset is a short drive in the opposite direction with an extensive array of high street retailers and leisure outlets.

Commuting is very straight forward. Both Sherborne and Yeovil offer convenient rail links to London Waterloo and the A303 is a short drive away. Bristol, Exeter and Bournemouth airports are all approximately a 1 hour drive away.
