Stone House (Lot 1)Converted about two years ago by the current owners, Stone House is a small, pretty, Grade II listed period barn that used to form part of the adjacent farm. The barn is positioned about 50 yards off the little-used country lane that passes through the village and faces south-west towards beautiful, unspoilt countryside bordering the River Wriggle.

In addition, many of the walls and some ceilings are covered with tongue and groove boarding concealing a very high level of insulation and the reception room and kitchen/breakfast room are floored with flagstones with underfloor heating beneath.

All the bedrooms have an integral shower/bath and WC.Guest Cottage & Garden (Lot 1)The barn is approached up a shared gravel drive to a parking area.

Extending out beyond the parking area and barn is level paddock of about 2.0 acres (0.8 hectare) partially enclosed by mature field hedging studded with native, broadleaf trees including oak.Stone House is situated on the edge of the small village of Chetnole, which has a parish church and the award-winning Chetnole Inn (Tripadvisor 4.5) and lies located within a conservation area.

Set on a hillside in the lee of mature woodland. Readers Cottage is a gorgeous example of an 18th century Dorset farm worker's cottage. From its elevated position off a little used country lane, the cottage looks out across an idyllic rural landscape that extends to the steep, partly wooded flank of Coach Hill on the Sherborne Castle Estate. Local folklore has it that the cottage got its name as the home of the only person in the community who could read. Originally it had just two rooms downstairs and two upstairs and by 1980 was in a parlous state close to dereliction. It then underwent a complete transformation into a charming and much larger residence and has been the much loved home of its present owner ever since. It is not listed and is built of local, pale honey-coloured stone under a thatched roof, with all its more recent elements perfectly matching the original cottage. The cottage faces south-west and has good ceiling heights although it still has some of low doorways in the older part. The cottage has five reception rooms including a sitting room with an inglenook fireplace, a study with a corner window that provides a fabulous and very distracting view of the surrounding countryside and a good-sized dining room with a vaulted ceiling. The combined kitchen and dining room has room for both seating and dining areas plus bi-fold doors that open to the terrace and garden, whilst the kitchen is fitted with bespoke, painted timber units under granite work surfaces. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. The principal bedroom has an adjacent dressing room and ensuite shower room and is accessible via its own staircase and galleried landing. The other two bedrooms and family bath and shower room are in a separate part of the cottage and there are built-in cupboards in abundance.The higher entrance to Readers Cottage leads to a parking area in front of the cottage. The lower one opens onto an additional parking area fronting an impressive timber-clad garage block, which incorporates a double garage, a side verandah overlooking the lower lawn and a self-contained, first floor guest apartment containing a living room/bedroom, kitchen and ensuite shower room. The garden is an absolute delight and compliments the cottage perfectly. It is a testament to vision and a love of beauty and consists of a series of terraced lawns fringed by low, mature hedging and borders. These are planted with a sumptuous variety of roses and herbaceous perennials that provide a palette of colour throughout the growing season. Blended within the garden are a handful of paved areas looking out onto the view, the most special of which fronts onto the summerhouse at the top of the garden. Also within the garden are a workshop with lean-to log store, two garden stores, two greenhouses and a bin store. Also at the top of the garden is a compact vegetable garden. The lower lawn can accommodate a modest marquee.Milborne Port 1.2 miles, Sherborne town centre & station 3.7 miles (Waterloo 2.25 hours), Wincanton/A303 9 miles, Yeovil 10 miles, Castle Cary station 15 miles (Paddington 90 minutes), Dorchester 20 miles, Taunton (J25) M5 33 miles Bristol Airport 42 miles.

Thought to date from the late Georgian/early Victorian period with later additions, The Grange is a handsome village house set in 8.37 acres on the edge of the village. The house, which has three floors and is unlisted, occupies a lovely, south-facing position that looks out over its two walled gardens to the River Yeo and the beautiful, unspoilt countryside beyond, which includes the house's two paddocks. Built in perhaps the most elegant period of English architecture, The Grange is built of cut local stone under a slate roof with deep eaves. Internally it has retained its original layout and many of the original architectural fittings. It has well proportioned rooms filled with natural light flowing in through tall sash windows, several fireplaces, coving, an impressive, wide main staircase, ceiling roses and stained glass. Over the past four years the house has undergone a programme of refurbishment. This included fitting a new central heating system, refurbishing most of the sash windows and the house has been completely re-roofed incorporating an exceptional level of insulation. In addition, four wood-burning stoves have also been installed and the family bathroom has been completely refitted. The house flows very well downstairs. It has a large and central reception hall leading to a good sized kitchen fitted with a four-oven electric AGA and three reception rooms on the south side of the house that look out over the garden and terrace. Beneath the ground floor is a suite of cellars incorporating a lockable wine bin. Upstairs on the first floor are five double bedrooms. The principal bedroom and guest bedroom both have ensuite bathrooms, whilst the remaining bedrooms share the family bath and shower room. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor plus a substantial attic for storage.Secondary AccommodationThe Grange incorporates secondary accommodation that has historically provided a significant rental income stream. The north-east wing contains three self-contained flats with the ground floor flat currently serving as a home office. Tucked away behind one side of the house is Bakers Cottage, a two-storey cottage with its own patio garden. The secondary accommodation units share pedestrian access to the village lane. Outbuildings, Garden & GroundsThe house is approached via a short approach drive leading to a gravelled parking area in front of the house. The parking extends partway along one side of the house leading to Bakers Cottage and a service yard incorporating four storerooms. The south-facing garden extends out behind the house, bound by a beech hedge plus tall brick and stone walling. A stone-paved terrace fringes the southern facade before dropping down to a level lawn fringed by floral borders. Adjacent is a walled garden containing a productive orchard containing apple, pear, damson & quince trees plus several native trees including Copper Beech. Within the grounds are a greenhouse and a stable block containing three loose boxes. Beyond the garden is about 7 acres of pasture with road access divided into two paddocks, with the River Yeo running between them.Fishing Rights: The property has double bank fishing rights along the length of the River Yeo running through its pasture land.Agent's Note: A public footpath runs across the north of the field following along the outside of the garden wall and travelling south-east towards Grants Hill.The Grange is situated on the southern edge of the conservation village of Bradford Abbas, which is surrounded by pretty, unspoilt countryside and is a thriving community with a parish church, popular pub (The Rose & Crown Tripadvisor 4.5), CofE primary school, post office, village hall and cricket club. The neighbouring village of Yetminster has a Spar convenience store and a health centre with a dispensary, whilst Sherborne is eight minutes by car and can meet most day-to-day needs including Waitrose and Sainsbury supermarkets and a mix of local businesses including dental and veterinary surgeries. For travel links there is an early rail service from Yetminster to Paddington (fastest 2 hours 13 minutes) as well as regular services from Sherborne to Waterloo (2 hours 15 minutes) and the airports at Bristol, Bournemouth and Exeter are both only about an hour's drive away. The local area also has a wide choice of schools from both the state and independent sectors. These include the well-regarded Gryphon School (state secondary) in Sherborne, Leweston, the Sherborne schools, Perrott Hill and Hazelgrove, which are all within a 10-mile radius.
