Manston Road, Sturminster Newton

A wonderful detached bungalow with far reaching views across stunning Dorset countryside as far as Fontmell Down to the East.

The Dwelling - A highly sensibly arranged bungalow sitting in a lovely plot with stunning countryside views. Built by Hammonds some 66 years ago, the house opens to a spacious entrance hall and leads to the interconnecting living rooms with a conservatory at the far end. The principal suite is a large garden facing bedroom with an extensive en suite bathroom.

A particular feature of the property is the extensive garden with countryside views as far reaching as Fontmell Down. The house has been very well maintained over the years but would now benefit from some sympathetic updating, however the layout flows exceptionally well.

Accommodation - See floor plan: In brief there is an entrance hall with glass panelling to the garden facing sitting room. The sitting room connects to the dining room and conservatory beyond. From the dining room is the semi open plan kitchen and side access. The entrance hall also has the principal bedroom suite with third bedroom / study next door and a second bedroom with separate shower room.

Outside - A drive entrance on the road leads down to the garage and wider turning circle. The house is set down and away from the road, protected with a mature hedge. The garden is accessed from either end of the house as well as through the conservatory. Being set in a large plot, the rear garden is extensive and has several 'rooms' sloping gently away to fields and footpaths. There are a couple of 'viewing' platforms and a gazebo to enjoy the far reaching views. To the conservatory side is a shed and greenhouse with a path leading to a side gate where access to the town or the footpath to Chivalry Brook and beyond is.

Situation - Sturminster Newton is a traditional market town with a range of independent shops including traditional butchers and delicatessen, cafes & pubs with further amenities such as a library, doctor and dental practices, health centre, churches and schools. The town also has an exceptional and active arts centre which provides a wide range of music, theatre and other events, a recreation ground and the surrounding area has some fantastic walking countryside.
