"A very appealing, cottage style property built in 1997 by the well regarded C G Fry and Sons. The house is an end terrace effectively semi detached, thatched family home with a lovely garden and a double garage. Situated in the heart of the village, just a short walk from the community run shop and cafe and close to the school and village hall.
The accommodation comprises four bedrooms, one with en suite shower room, family bathroom and a spacious part galleried landing. On the ground floor entrance hall, w.c., a good sized lounge with fireplace, opening to a conservatory, a separate dining room, kitchen breakfast room and utility room.
The garden is larger than that of neighbouring properties, being on the end, the house benefits from a wider plot. The garden is delightful, having been split into various sections, with a rose garden and a small space for growing fruit vegetables, a small pond, a trellis arch leads through to another planting area and there is an area of lawn and a summer house. A path leads to the back of the garden where there is a personnel door into the garage, which has power and light. A garden gate leads out to the rear driveway which is shared with neighbours. Windows are the original wooden double glazed units except the conservatory which is uPVC double glazed which have been well maintained and regularly painted. There is oil fired central heating with radiators throughout.

Thorncombe village lies in the western corner of Dorset close to the Devon and Somerset borders and just 11 miles inland from the popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis on the Jurassic coast. The nearest towns are Chard and Crewkerne both just over 6 miles away and the seaside town of Lyme Regis is just 10 miles to the south. The area has been designated as one of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the village itself has a very strong community with many local clubs on offer and an excellent community run shop PO cafe. There are numerous footpaths available from the doorstep and the famous Forde Abbey and gardens is just a mile down the road. To find out more, please visit

N.B. When visiting Thorncombe please DO NOT FOLLOW THE SAT NAV if travelling from Lyme Regis Bridport direction. The sat nav will generally direct you via a very difficult road on the outskirts of Hawkchurch. This is not the best way to the village. Please travel along the B3165 to Marshwood and turn left at Birdsmoorgate. Alternatively, if coming from Chard or Axminster, take the A358, turn off at Tatworth South Chard and initially follow signs to Forde Abbey.
