PROPERTY SUMMARY
This beautiful building is approached through a pillared entrance and along a sweeping drive way. The building was converted into apartments in 1981 and now offers a unique opportunity for a range of buyers to acquire the perfect downsizer or second home with a range of excellent facilities to hand.

THE APARTMENT
This charming little bolthole is the perfect base to explore and enjoy all the Cotswolds offers. The accommodation is far from large but has all the essentials. It comprises entrance hall, sitting/dining room, kitchen area, double bedroom and bathroom. The apartment would benefit from some cosmetic updating and may offer scope to be re modelled and maybe even a mezzanine floor adding, subject to the necessary consents being obtained. Externally, there is an off road parking space and most crucially, a garage with light and power.

ADDITIONAL AMENITIES
Sherborne House enjoys almost 12 acres of manicured grounds including large lawns, a rose garden, an orchard and a range of mature borders. Communal facilities include a heated indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym and tennis court. In addition a private parking area offers a surplus of parking for residents.

SITUATION
Sherborne village lies in the folds of the Cotswold Hills and is mainly owned by the National Trust, as is the Sherborne Estate which controls much of the parkland and several thousands of acres of farmland surrounding the village. It is situated midway between Burford and Northleach, about a mile north of the A40 which connects Oxford and Cheltenham. The village, with its typical Cotswold cottages and houses, is situated in the heart of the valley of the Little Sherborne Brook. In the village is a local post office/shop, useful for everyday needs, a Parish Church, primary school and social club with more extensive facilities on hand in Bourton-on-the-Water, Northleach, Burford, Cirencester or Cheltenham. The property is well located for sporting opportunities, with golf at Burford and Naunton Downs; racing at Cheltenham and Warwick; water sports at the Cotswold Water Park; hunting with the Heythrop and Cotswold Hunts; and rugby at Gloucester.
