Martel Close, Broadmayne, Dorchester

Modernised four-bedroom bungalow in a quiet cul-de-sac, with loft potential and a sunny south-facing garden, close to Dorchester and the coast.

The Property - A four-bedroom detached bungalow that has been significantly improved, with some works remaining to complete the project. The property offers excellent potential for a loft conversion (STPP) and is set within a quiet cul-de-sac, conveniently located close to the coast and the county town of Dorchester.

Accommodation - This light-filled property has been extensively updated, including high levels of insulation, triple-glazed windows, contemporary sanitary ware, and a stunning kitchen/dining area.

A welcoming entrance hall leads to a comfortable sitting room with wood-burning stove, hearth and TV connection, with glazed doors opening into an impressive kitchen/dining room. This striking space features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, sleek gloss-finished units with quartz worktops, an island with breakfast bar and integrated electric hob. Appliances include an integral microwave, double oven, dishwasher, and washing machine, with provision for an American-style fridge freezer. Amtico-style flooring runs throughout, with ample space for a dining table and chairs. Adjacent to the kitchen is a purpose-built room already plumbed for the installation of a second downstairs WC.

There are four bedrooms in total. The principal bedroom is a generous double with direct access to the garden, while bedrooms two and three are also doubles. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a home office. The family bathroom is stylishly appointed with a freestanding bath, separate shower, WC, twin vanity basins, ceiling downlights and a fitted cupboard housing the modern gas combi boiler.

A fitted staircase provides access to the loft, which offers excellent scope for conversion (subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations). The loft is substantial in size, with space to create two bedrooms or a large master suite, alongside a bathroom. All plumbing is already in place, making it ideal for further development (STPP).

Outside - Outside, the property benefits from an attached garage with store and ample driveway parking.

The rear garden, positioned on the south elevation, enjoys a sunny aspect with a spacious patio area adjoining the property (currently unfinished) and steps leading down to a lawn bordered by fruit trees and established hedging. Side access connects the rear to the front garden, which is predominantly laid to lawn with a garden shed, driveway and surrounding hedgerow.

Situation - Broadmayne is about four miles south-east of Dorchester, the county town, which offers a comprehensive range of shopping, recreational facilities as well as the main line railway service to London Waterloo.
