Description
The Dwelling - Renovated throughout by the current owners, this beautifully presented chalet bungalow offers contemporary living across two floors. With rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof, the property is ideally positioned on the outskirts of Sherborne, enjoying breath taking rear views. Thoughtfully updated and extended in 2020 to a high specification, the home incorporates modern technology throughout, ensuring both convenience and comfort.
Accommodation - Stepping into the entrance hall, the outstanding rear views immediately come into focus, drawing you through the space towards the stunning extension. The light-filled hallway, enhanced by solid wood flooring, seamlessly flows to the rear, where the beautifully designed open-plan kitchen and living area unfolds.
This impressive extension, with its architectural elegance, is framed by expansive bifold doors that showcase uninterrupted panoramic views over the rolling fields of the neighbouring Digby Estate. Skylights to either side flood the room with natural light, enhancing the sense of openness. The bespoke kitchen is meticulously designed with solid wood cabinetry, Corian work surfaces, and matching splashbacks, while a central island with a breakfast bar creates a stylish yet practical focal point, complete with high-specification integrated appliances for modern convenience. With underfloor heating throughout, this expansive open-plan living space effortlessly accommodates both a dining area and a comfortable seating area. The utility room, conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, provides ample space for white goods and additional storage, with fitted cabinetry and a side door.
To the front of the ground floor, two well-appointed double bedrooms are accompanied by two reception rooms, which could alternatively serve as additional ground-floor bedrooms if required. A family bathroom is also located on this level, providing convenience and flexibility for modern living.
The first floor offers two additional double bedrooms, a shower room, and access to the eaves for extra storage. The master bedroom is a standout feature, with a striking glass rear wall that maximizes the stunning views, while integrated air conditioning ensures year-round comfort.
Garden - Predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by flower beds with automated sprinklers, the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a private yet open outdoor space. Enclosed by fencing on either side, the rear is defined by a low stone-built wall, allowing uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. A paved patio area sits adjacent to the property, providing side access and leading to the hot tub.
