House For Sale £425,000
A detached two bedroom period cottage situated in a secluded position, nestled amongst magnificent countryside with scope to extend, detached garage, parking and gardens amounting to approximately 0.2 acres.
Tripps Cottage is a charming two bedroom detached property thought to have been built in the 1920’s, enjoying a private and rural positon between the villages of Alweston and Purse Caundle set amongst idyllic countryside with stunning far reaching views in every direction. The property is being marketed for the first time in over 45 years and presents a rare opportunity to purchase an individually built home in a glorious tranquil location and plot which extends to 0.2 acres with enormous potential to enhance, extend or reconfigure (subject to any necessary planning consents) Internally the accommodation is well proportioned with an abundance of natural light throughout and is arranged from a welcoming porch which leads into a charming double aspect kitchen enjoying wonderful countryside views and fitted with a quality range of oak floor and wall cupboards with matching dresser style unit, and worktops over with inset stainless steel 1 ½ bowl sink and drainer. Integral appliances include an electric hob and twin ovens with extractor hood over, dishwasher and fridge. Beyond the kitchen there is utility/cloak room which provides space and plumbing for a washing machine and a dryer.
The sitting room is a cosy space which could (subject to any necessary consents) be opened up into the dining room to create a larger reception space and open plan style of living. There is an attractive fireplace in the dining room and fitted cupboards under the stairs which rise to the first floor landing. There are two double bedrooms both of which enjoy glorious uninterrupted countryside views, and have an excellent range of fitted wardrobes, served by a family bathroom which has both a bath and a separate shower, and a basin vanity unit.

Tripps Cottage is situated between the villages of Alweston and Purse Caundle which lie a short distance to the South of the historic Abbey town of Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil. Alweston boasts ‘The Elms’ farmhouse kitchen and café and also has a village hall to its centre. There is a shop, petrol station and public house nearby in Bishops Caundle, whilst both Sherborne and Yeovil provide an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities.
Tripps Cottage stands proudly on its own with no visible neighbours and is quite possibly one of the most peacefully located properties on the market in the local area. The serenity of the surrounding countryside and magnificent 360 degree views are truly inspiring. Double gates lead onto a driveway providing parking and access to the detached garage equipped with an up and over door, power and light. The generous plot measures 0.2 acres, the main body of garden extends to one side, with a further area of garden on the Southern boundary. The main garden is partly laid to lawn, with areas of stone chippings and paving and has delightful established shrub and floral borders offering a range of colour and shape throughout the seasons. There are a variety of sheds, some with power and light, a fish pond with ornamental water feature and the gardens are enclosed by natural hedging and post fencing with incredible views in every direction .
