Litton Cheney, Dorchester

Charming traditionally built three bedroom house with parking, garage and workshop, situated in the pretty village of Litton Cheney.

The Dwelling - Talisman was built in 1985 by the well-known Poundbury developer CG Fry and has handsome stone elevations with brick quoining under a slate roof. Although the property is in need of some modernisation now, what marks this house out from many others is the breadth of its living accommodation, the workshop/garage/parking that lies to the rear, and its location to the centre of a popular Bride Valley village.

Accommodation - The main body of the living accommodation lies on the west side of the property, looking out over the rear gardens taking in the sun for much of the day, with a sitting room that gives way to a garden room and in turn to a conservatory. The kitchen lies to the front of the house and it has been suggested, subject to building regulations, that the dining room, that lies behind, could be opened out into the kitchen to create a more complete space. Off the kitchen there is a utility room while to the front of the house there is an entrance hall and a cloakroom. Upstairs there are three good bedrooms served by a shower room. The property is double glazed and has electric heating supplemented by a woodburning stove in the sitting room.

Outside - Immediately to the rear of the property there is a delightful outside entertaining area that gives way to a formal garden. This is for the most part laid to lawn with a meandering path that leads down to the workshop and garage. The workshop is equipped with light and power along with the garage, with a useful storage area in the roof void. In front of the garage and workshop there is off-street parking for two cars while to the end of the garden there are a series of useful timber sheds.

Situation - This property is situated in Litton Cheney, a popular village known for its outstanding countryside beauty and offers numerous walking opportunities. Heading west you will find the Jurassic Coastline and one of Dorset's local towns, Bridport, it has a variety of independent shops, restaurants that cater to range of tastes, and especially for its arts and music events. Dorchester and Weymouth are to the east of the village where sports and other opportunities lie.
