The Waldrons, Thornford, Sherborne, DT9

A spacious and extended detached two bedroom bungalow with garage, off street parking and lovely South West facing garden. EPC band E. NO ONWARD CHAIN.


34 The Waldrons occupies a pleasant position within a small development of properties close to the centre of this most favoured village. The property has been extended to one side to enhance the footprint of the kitchen/dining room, bathroom and bedroom to create generous and well-proportioned living spaces. There is also great potential to convert into the loft (subject to any necessary consents) as neighbouring properties have done, and or extend into the rear garden taking full advantage of the particularly lovely South West facing outlook over playing fields. Internally accommodation is arranged from a hall which has a cloakroom and also leads into a bright dual aspect living room which enjoys views over the front garden and lawn. An inner hall provides access to the spacious kitchen/dining room which is very well fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base cupboards and drawers with work surfaces over, and is equipped with an electric hob with extractor over and a ‘Micromat’ combi oven. There is space for a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. At one end there is ample space for a dining table and in addition a door to the side garden.
There are two very generous double bedrooms at the rear of the property, one of which has extensive built in wardrobes and both enjoy wonderful views over the sunny rear garden which can be directly reached from one bedroom from French doors.
The bathroom is another spacious room with the added convenience of having both a bath and a separate shower, as well as a bidet, WC and basin with cupboards beneath, vanity unit and mirror.

34 The Waldrons lies in a quiet back water to the centre of the popular village of Thornford which itself has a surprising number of amenities. Those amenities include a church, public house, a village shop, a village hall and a primary school while both the historic Abbey town of Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil lie within short motoring distance providing between them an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with a train halt at the west of the village on the Weymouth to Bristol line, a mainline station at Sherborne linking directly with London Waterloo and road links along the A303 joined at Wincanton giving swift access to London and the Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.

The front of the property is laid to lawn with planted borders and has a bloc paved driveway to one side which provides parking and access to the garage which is equipped with an up and over door, power and light. The garden at the rear is a real sun trap and a perfect environment to relax in and enjoy the South West facing orientation, and is both private and secure with a lovely outlook over the school playing fields. To one corner there is a raised paved terrace which provides a seating area from which to enjoy views towards local countryside and the remaining garden is laid to stone chippings and paving for ease of maintenance with established planting. There is a greenhouse to one corner and gates on either side of the property allowing access to the front.
