Situation

Bournefield is a small residential close right in the heart of Sherborne St John, a popular village situated just to the North of Basingstoke. The village itself has a highly regarded Primary School, Church and Public House, whilst nearby Basingstoke offers a far more extensive range of leisure, recreational and educational facilities. The location is excellent for commuting being within easy access of the M3 via Junction 6, and the mainline railway station in Basingstoke provides fast and frequent services to London Waterloo.

The property

6 Bournefield is situated at the end of the close and has a lovely south facing garden with a view of the church steeple over an area of water meadow, a site of importance for nature conservation (sinc) and one of the sources of the Wey Brook. The property has been in the same ownership since it was built in the 1960s. It offers well- proportioned accommodation of about 1872 sq.ft. And has great scope for improvement.

On the ground floor, the front door opens to the reception room from which the stairs rise to the first floor. The dual aspect sitting room has a fireplace and both this, the dining room and the garden room, have patio doors opening to the rear terrace. The kitchen overlooks the rear and the study overlooks the front. There is also a shower room.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms and the bathroom.

For further details, please refer to the floorplan.

Outside

To the front, there is a tarmac drive providing parking in front of the attached garage.

The garden is a delight backing onto and overlooking the sinc. It is level and primarily laid to lawn, well-screened by mature hedging and enjoying a high degree of privacy with some mature trees and flower beds. To one side is a productive vegetable garden. The main garden extends to about 0.3 acre however the majority of the ‘water meadow’ of the sinc to the rear is also owned and there is no public right of access over it.
