Bydand, Stowell,
Sherborne, DT9 4PD
Charming detached three bedroom timber bungalow with enormous development potential
set in 1.63 acres.
DESCRIPTION
Bydand was originally built as a
stable/garage block and has over many
years been converted into a comfortable
home.
The key to the property is
undoubtedly its position which is sited in
an elevated site in a no through road
overlooking both its own land and
surrounded by open countryside. It has
been suggested, subject to obtaining the
necessary planning consents, that the
building could be developed to create a
contemporary or traditional two storey
property.
The property is currently
arranged with the two principal living
areas either end of the property with a
large drawing room laid to parquet floor
on the south end and a comfortable
