35 Higher Barton is a semi-detached Grade II Listed cottage believed to date back to the late 18th Century. In need of some renovation, it is ready for new owners to put their own stamp on it. The property is located in the idyllic village of Trent, surrounded by peaceful countryside yet still only a short journey away from the Abbey town of Sherborne.
Accommodation
A timber front door opens into the spacious sitting room, which has a window overlooking the front garden, a stone fireplace with an open fire and a cupboard and shelving to the side. There is a radiator, TV and telephone points and the consumer unit and electric meter. From the sitting room is access to the kitchen, stairs and study/utility room, which has a window to the rear and a telephone point. The pipework for the boiler is also housed within this room.
The galley kitchen has a window to the front with a window seat and a window to the side with views over the garden. There are fitted wall, base and drawer units, a stainless steel sink with drainer, space/connections for an electric cooker and washing machine and a radiator. From the kitchen a door leads into the bathroom.
The bathroom has a window to the side, radiator and a bath with a shower over. From the bathroom, two steps lead up to the second part of the room where you will find a wash basin, WC, radiator and window to the side.
A door from the sitting room gives access to the stairs leading to the first floor. The landing has a window to the rear, fitted linen cupboards, radiator and loft access.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor, bedrooms one and two are good sized doubles with windows to the front, radiators and TV points. The second bedroom also has a fitted wardrobe. The third bedroom is a spacious single room with a window to the side and a TV point.
Outside
The garden to the front and side of the cottage is predominately laid to lawn with a hardstanding area for off road parking, which could be enlarged if required. There is a concrete path through the garden to the front door, an outbuilding constructed of concrete block with a window and light/power connected and the oil tank located behind the outbuilding. There is access to the rear of the property where the oil central heating boiler is located.
Situation
Trent is a highly sought after village set between the towns of Sherborne and Yeovil. It is a thriving village with a popular primary school, the active congregation of St Andrews Church, an award winning pub, The Rose and Crown, a fully licensed village hall and new children’s play area. Sherborne and Yeovil are both within easy reach and have a wide range of cultural, shopping and business amenities and an extensive choice of both private and state schools. Sherborne’s mainline station provides direct train links to London Waterloo in approximately two and a half hours.
