Pound House is a substantial detached family home offering well-balanced living accommodation, set within the village of Corton Denham. Surrounded by countryside walks across Corton Ridge and the Beacon, the property enjoys a wrap-around garden, generous driveway parking, a double garage, and the added benefit of no onward chain. With four double bedrooms, multiple reception spaces and a summer house, this home presents an excellent opportunity for family living in a peaceful rural setting.
Ground Floor
The ground floor is arranged around a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a convenient cloakroom. The sitting room is an impressive space, enjoying a triple aspect that floods the room with natural light. A stone mantel and hearth with an electric fire creates a focal point, while sliding doors open directly out to the rear garden. From the sitting room, a door leads into a front-facing office fitted with a built-in desk and shelving, ideal for home working. Glazed double doors connect the sitting room to the dining room which benefits from a serving hatch to the kitchen and flows through an archway into the snug, which overlooks the rear garden and opens onto the patio via sliding doors. The modern, dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room is well-proportioned and fitted with cream shaker-style units, wood-effect worktops, LVT wood-effect flooring underfoot and integrated appliances, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a Stoves induction range cooker. A door gives access to a useful utility room with fitted cabinets, under-counter space for laundry appliances, stainless-steel sink and an external door providing access to the detached garage and garden.
First Floor
Upstairs, a bright galleried landing with a large front-facing window creates an open feel, with access to the loft via a pull-down ladder and a large airing cupboard. The principal bedroom suite is thoughtfully arranged, with a dressing room featuring built-in wardrobes and dressing table leading through to the main bedroom which overlooks the garden, complete with an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two is another generous rear facing double, also benefitting from built-in storage and an en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms sit at the front of the property, both with built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom offers a bath, separate shower, WC and basin and provides scope for updating to suit modern tastes.
Outside
Double metal gates open onto a spacious driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles, leading to a detached double garage fitted with electric up-and-over doors, power, lighting and a water tap. The front garden is framed by a stone wall with established trees and shrubs, and steps rise to a summer house positioned to enjoy the outlook. To the rear, the garden is arranged with a patio seating area, steps leading up to a raised lawn and a high hedge forming a private and sheltered boundary, creating a peaceful setting for outdoor dining, relaxation and family life.
Location
Corton Denham is a sought-after Somerset village lying just to the south of Sherborne, close to the Dorset border. The village offers a rural setting while benefitting from a well-regarded public house, The Queens Arms, a parish church and traditional village character. More comprehensive facilities are available in the nearby Abbey town of Sherborne, which provides a wide range of shops, supermarkets, schools, medical facilities and leisure amenities. Sherborne also benefits from a main-line train station with services to London Waterloo and Exeter. The A30 and A303 are both easily accessible, providing excellent east-west road connections and linking with the M3 to London and the South-East.
