About this property
Former Victorian school house
Previous planning permission granted
Three double bedrooms
Large garden
Two bathrooms
Generous parking
Period features throughout
An attractive family home set in mature grounds of approximately 0.36 acre, offering excellent space both inside and out.
Introduction
The Old School House was built in 1874 as the head teacher’s residence serving the adjoining school and today remains a charming period home with a strong sense of history and character. The property retains many original features including fireplaces, patinated timber flooring, tongue and groove wood panelling and original stone mullion windows.
The Property
The property is set well back from the lane within its own established grounds. Accommodation is well balanced, with two reception rooms alongside a kitchen and study, providing flexibility for modern living. The first floor provides three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom retains an original Victorian fireplace and benefits from full-width fitted wardrobes, while the remaining bedrooms each include built-in storage. Both bathrooms are fitted with contemporary suites, each incorporating a shower-over-bath arrangement. Storage is a particular strength on this level, with multiple built-in cupboards including linen and airing cupboards. Planning permission has been granted in the past for a single-storey extension to the side of the property (ref: 1/D/11/000329), offering scope to enhance further if desired.
Outside
The garden extends to approximately 0.36 of an acre and is bounded by stone walling and established hedging. Lawns lie to both the front and rear, interspersed with mature trees and shrubs. A kitchen garden with raised beds sits adjacent to the house alongside an outdoor seating area. To the rear are a summer house and two timber sheds, with a pedestrian gate opening onto a footpath. The entrance drive provides considerable parking.
Situation
Evershot is a picturesque village in the heart of Dorset with a wonderful history, including links to Thomas Hardy. The village is a conservation area with many of the beautiful buildings being listed. Although the village has a small population there are ample amenities including a primary school, village shop/post office, award winning pub the Acorn, Summer Lodge Hotel, artisan bakery and village hall. Nearby is Ilchester Estate which has lovely walks through the deer park.
