Summary - 171 TRENDLE STREET SHERBORNE DT9 3NT
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Rare restored 17th-century cottage with private walled garden near Sherborne high street.
Grade II listed double-fronted stone cottage with strong period features
A handsome, double-fronted Grade II listed stone cottage dating from the 1600s, this thoughtfully restored home combines strong period character with practical modern upgrades. Exposed coffered beams, Hamstone mullion windows, flagstone floors and carved fireplaces give the interiors authentic charm, while a new roof, gas boiler, kitchen and log-burning stove mean the house is ready to live in.
Set on one of Sherborne’s most sought-after streets, the property offers deceptively generous accommodation (1,461 sq ft): entrance hall, two reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and ground floor WC, plus three roomy first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. A large, boarded loft provides useful storage. The walled rear garden (approx. 36'10" x 30'3") is private, partly lawned with a patio, shed and rainwater harvesting butt.
This house will particularly suit families seeking character close to town amenities and schools, or buyers wanting a period pied-à-terre in a conservation setting. Important practical points: the home is Grade II listed so repairs and alterations will need listed-building consent; broadband speeds are slow; council tax is above average; and the plot is modest in size.
Overall, this is a rare, well-presented historic cottage in the heart of Sherborne’s conservation area. The combination of period detail, recent sympathetic renovation and extremely convenient location makes it a property that rewards an internal inspection.
