Back Lane, Dorchester, DT2

Summary

A beautifully presented and very well maintained character home situated in the desirable village of Cerne Abbas, benefitting from light and airy accommodation throughout and featuring a fabulous artist's studio in the garden.

Description

A pathway leads from the street to the side of the property and the front door opening into the entrance porch which offers plenty of space for coats and boots. A further pine glazed door opens into the Kitchen Dining Room; the kitchen has a range of base and wall-mounted cabinets, wooden countertops with countersunk sink drainer beneath a window overlooking the garden, spaces for a dishwasher, washing machine, and an electric cooker. The spacious dining area features double doors opening to the rear garden, and internal glazed double doors which leads into the light and spacious dual aspect living room room which benefits from a wood burning stove and various spaces to sit and relax. Stairs rise to the first floor landing and two bedrooms to the rear aspect, both with inbuilt storage and beautiful countryside views. The bathroom features a white suite and a shower over the bath. Stairs again rise to the attic bedroom (restricted head height) which has a large sky light making this cosy space generously light.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden is accessed by a pedestrian gate to the side of the property, or directly from the kitchen diner via the French doors which open onto a paved patio area while gravel pathways wind through the landscaped borders leading to a seating area which is interspersed with mature shrubs and fruit trees. A bespoke-built Cedar garden room offers a fabulous space which is currently being used as an artist's studio, but has a log burner, light and power and could be used as ancillary accommodation or home office. There is also a useful garden shed.
