Renovated to a high standard throughout, this detached three-bedroom bungalow occupies a prime position within a sought after village. The property offers contemporary, light-filled accommodation complemented by a beautifully landscaped south-facing garden.
The Dwelling
This beautifully renovated three-bedroom home features reconstituted stone elevations beneath a tiled roof. Recently refurbished throughout by the current owners, the property offers bright and spacious open-plan living accommodation. All three bedrooms are generous doubles, with the principal bedroom benefiting from its own ensuite shower room.
Accommodation
The open-plan living area is exceptionally well-proportioned, featuring a floor-to-ceiling window and triple-aspect glazing that provide an abundance of natural light. A log burner is set neatly to one corner, offering both warmth and architectural interest. The contemporary Howdens kitchen is fitted with a substantial central island and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, combining clean design with practical efficiency.
A rear hallway, accessed from the kitchen, provides secondary access to the property and leads directly to the principal bedroom, which benefits from French doors opening to the garden and a well-appointed ensuite shower room. From the main entrance hall, two further double bedrooms are offered, both with built-in wardrobes, while the third bedroom enjoys direct garden access via a sliding door. A stylish family bathroom serves these rooms, completing the accommodation.
Garden
The south-facing rear garden has been fully landscaped to create an inviting and usable outdoor space. A generous patio adjoins the property and benefits from contemporary outdoor lighting, ideal for evening entertaining. Well-established trees and shrubbery line the borders, providing privacy and seasonal interest, while a secondary patio offers an additional seating area. The garage includes a rear extension, presenting potential for further flexible accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
Situation
Leigh is a vibrant village with a strong community spirit, offering amenities such as a village hall, church, local shop/part-time post office, and regular "pop-up pub" nights. The village is located about 7 miles south of the historic abbey town of Sherborne, which offers a variety of independent shops, supermarkets, restaurants, and cafes. Nearby towns include Yeovil (5.5 miles) and Dorchester (18 miles). Sherborne offers excellent schools, including The Gryphon School and several private institutions.
