House For Sale £525,000
A spacious, individual four bedroom detached bungalow set in a sought after village location, which occupies a set-back position and 0.25 acre plot with much opportunity for extension STPP. Offered with landscaped gardens, garage and parking.
The Pollards is a spacious, individual detached bungalow which occupies a set-back position within the popular village of Leigh and benefits from a generous 0.25 acre (approximate) plot with established, mature gardens. Owing to its location within the village, the property enjoys a stunning rural backdrop across the surrounding countryside to the hills beyond.
The property has been extended but in recent years it has undergone extensive updating and modernisation. However, there is still a great opportunity for further extension STPP.
Internally the accommodation is very well proportioned and offers a great degree of flexibility. The flooring throughout has been replaced along with solid oak doors to each room. The living rooms are primarily arranged to the rear of the property and therefore take full advantage of the charming outlook and views. This is particularly the case in the sitting room which benefits from a plentiful supply of windows overlooking the rear garden and a newly installed log burner. The extension flows from the sitting room into a study/dining area with access to a WC and connecting fourth bedroom or potential dressing area. The kitchen also benefits from the same aspect and is well appointed with soft closing base and wall units, as well as a most useful larder cupboard. The kitchen is equipped with white goods such as a Russell Hobbs hob, overhead extractor, Lamona dishwasher and a Lamona double oven and grill. Each of the three other bedrooms are of double proportions. Bedroom 1 is of particular note due to its expansive size, which suggests potential to create ensuite facilities through from the extension area if desired, whilst bedroom 3, is where the versatility of the property is particularly prevalent; this room could easily be utilised as an additional reception room or study, to name but a few potential uses. The property further benefits from a modern bathroom
suite equipped with bath and overhead shower, WC and wash hand basin. The property offers a modern oil fired boiler and central heating system, with most double glazing windows replaced.
Services
The property offers a modern oil fired boiler and upgraded heating system and radiators. Mains electric, water and drainage.

The Pollards is situated on the edge of the ever popular village of Leigh which itself lies in the beautiful Dorset countryside to the south of the historic Abbey town of Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil. The village has a church, a garage (including a shop and sub post office) and a village hall to its centre, while Sherborne, Yeovil and Dorchester lie within short motoring distance providing between them an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area with many walks to be had from the village itself, while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with a halt at nearby Chetnole on the Weymouth to Bath and Bristol line. A main line station at Sherborne links directly with
The property enjoys one of the largest plots in the locality measuring approximately a quarter of an acre with delightful, mature gardens, which are well stocked with an exciting array of established flora, wrapping around the property on three sides. To the front, the property is set back and well screened from the public road by the front garden which is primarily laid to lawn bordered by a hedge. There is also a driveway to the front offering excellent parking space for a number of vehicles as well as providing access to the single garage. The garage has been reroofed and has light and power. To the rear, a most generous landscaped garden predominantly laid to lawn with vegetable area and a variety of apple trees to include Bramley and Worcester. There is a wildlife pond to the centre along with a newly installed pond. The garden shed has also been reroofed and makes great additional garden storage.
