The property is situated in the heart of Halstock, a pretty village in a rural location, yet remains in comfortable motoring distance to the nearby towns of Yeovil, Sherborne, Crewkerne and Dorchester. All of which provide a good range of everyday shopping, banking and educational services including both primary and secondary schooling.
The property has good transport links with the A37 being some 2 miles due east linking with the A303. Mainline railway links are available at Sherborne and Yeovil Junction (London Waterloo) and international airports at Bristol and Exeter. Halstock itself benefits from the award winning community village shop, with post office counter, village hall and church, with a variety of clubs and events taking place in the local area.
The property is set in the centre of the village accessed via the front cottage garden which is laid to lawn with a flagstone path leading to the front door and enclosed by wrought iron railings.
To the rear is the paved courtyard garden which has surrounding gravelled borders planted with a range of mature shrubs together with a corner summerhouse, outside tap, external power and lighting.
The rear courtyard benefits from pedestrian access via a pathway that leads to the rear, via a pedestrian gate. The neighbouring property has a right of pedestrian access across the corner of the courtyard to the gate, although we have been informed that this is rarely used.
Overall the garden offers a low maintenance, private, tranquil space for both relaxing and alfresco dining.
