Long Street, Sherborne DT9

A charming Grade II Listed townhouse in the heart of Sherborne.
No onward chain.

A delightful Grade II Listed townhouse dating back to the 17th century, 2 Eastbury Cottage enjoys a wonderful central position within Sherborne’s sought-after Conservation Area, just a short stroll from the amenities of Cheap Street. This attractive property, constructed of warm local stone beneath a tiled roof, offers a wealth of character combined with well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors, together with a south-facing garden and the rare advantage of garage facilities.
Internally, the house retains a rich variety of period features that give it a distinctive charm, including exposed timber beams, deep-set windows, impressive ceiling heights, open fireplaces and original alcoves. These elements, combined with generously proportioned rooms, create a welcoming and versatile home suited to both everyday living and entertaining.
The ground floor provides a particularly appealing arrangement of reception space. The sitting room is centred around a striking inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, framed by exposed stonework and timber detailing, creating a warm and inviting focal point. French doors open directly onto the garden, allowing natural light to fill the room and providing a seamless connection to the outside space. The adjoining dining room is equally well-proportioned and offers an ideal setting for more formal occasions, while the kitchen/breakfast room is both practical and conveniently located, with access to the garden and adjoining cloakroom facilities. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
On the first floor, there are two well-sized bedrooms, including a notably spacious double room, complemented by a family bathroom. The second floor is dedicated to an impressive principal bedroom suite, which spans much of the level and benefits from excellent proportions and a sense of privacy, along with additional bathroom facilities.
