An exceptional, Grade II Listed 3 bed former school building, converted to a high standard and quietly situated in the centre of this highly desirable village.
Description - A recently created three-bedroom house located next to the Church in this sought-after village. This former Victorian school, now a listed building, was thoughtfully converted in 2023 into two high-quality homes. Henrietta House is the larger of the two, featuring three bedrooms, each with its own en-suite shower or bathroom.
On the ground floor, there is a spacious and well specified kitchen/living room that includes an island with an oak breakfast bar. The contemporary kitchen offers a range of features, including soft-close cabinets, a one-and-a-half bowl sink unit, an electric hob, a double electric oven, as well as an integrated fridge-freezer and dishwasher. The living area boasts a wood burner, and limestone flooring extends throughout the ground floor. Additionally, there is a cloakroom with a vanity unit and automatic lighting, along with a rear lobby that provides cupboard space and access to the garden. A separate utility room offers more cabinets, a sink, and additional cupboard space housing the pressurized hot water cylinder.
The contemporary staircase leads from the centre of the living space to the first floor and to three double bedrooms, each equipped with en-suite bath or shower rooms. Two of the bedrooms also have fitted wardrobes. The bedrooms are bright and airy, enhanced by vertical windows from the original school hall and additional Velux roof lights. The upstairs is furnished with high-quality natural sisal matting, and remotely operated electric blinds cover the windows.
Outside, there is an enclosed front garden, professionally landscaped to include a lawn, flower beds, a pathway, and hedge screening for privacy. There is a small rear paved courtyard with a wooden shed and space for bin storage. Ample, gravelled parking is available at the front of the property, shared with next door; however, there is no garage.
The house is heated by an air source heat pump, which provides underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators on the first floor. All garden maintenance is INCLUDED.
Donhead St Andrew is a particularly sought after Nadder Valley village surrounded by beautiful countryside with a National Landscape designation (formerly AONB). The thriving small town of Tisbury with its mainline railway station to London Waterloo is a mere 5 miles away and likewise the historic hilltop market town of Shaftesbury with its wider facilities.
The property is owned by a charitable Trust, is available unfurnished and offers a potentially long-term tenancy as the Trustees are unlikely to sell or want to move in themselves.
