Most handsome and generously proportioned former vicarage with attractive walled gardens and views towards the church.
Description
The Old Vicarage has most handsome stone elevations under a slate roof and is believed to date from the 18th Century, with Victorian additions. The house has light and spacious accommodation including a good size reception hall with stripped wood floor, drawing room with bay window and fireplace, sitting room, dining room and large family kitchen/ breakfast room with inglenook and aga as well as double doors to the terrace.
On the first floor are four bedrooms with three bathrooms and a second floor with a sitting room, kitchenette, shower room and two further bedrooms. Many of the rooms retain period features including window shutters, exposed floorboards and exposed beams.
Outside
The gardens are a major feature of the property and are almost entirely enclosed by pretty stone walls. To the front a lawn is dissected by a stone path to the front door. To the rear the kitchen spills out onto a large terrace on the south west elevation beyond which is the main lawn with mature borders with the church as the backdrop.
There are some fine trees dotted around the gardens. Separate walled garden including a small orchard and kitchen garden and outdoor swimming pool with recently fitted air source heat pump faces almost due south. A part shared driveway on the east leads to a gravelled parking area with a garage, store, cloakroom and pool room.
Location
The Old Vicarage is located close to the centre of Henstridge next to the pretty Church of St Nicholas.
The village has a good range of facilities including pubs, garage, restaurant and primary school with the nearby village of Stalbridge providing a further variety of amenities including a popular independent supermarket.
Other towns of note in the area include Shaftesbury and the fine Abbey Town of Sherborne with lots of facilities including Waitrose and Sainsburys supermarkets, Wincanton, Blandford Forum and Sturminster Newton.
The village is conveniently located to access the A303 to the North at Wincanton and there is a mainline railway service available from nearby Templecombe with a regular service to Exeter and London Waterloo.
Sporting activities include golf at Sherborne and Yeovil, horseracing at Wincanton, Exeter or Bath and watersports are available on the Dorset coastline to the South.
The area is well served by independent schools with Sherborne School for Boys, Sherborne School for Girls, Leweston, Sherborne Preparatory School, Hazelgrove, Port Regis and Bryanston.
