Description

Welcome to this inviting first and second-floor apartment with its own private garden, where thoughtful design meets everyday comfort.

This house was originally built as an officers’ garrison, serving as both lodging and a command post for military personnel stationed in the area. Constructed to provide secure and functional quarters using a practical layout, it reflected the architectural priorities of the time.

Stairs from the ENTRANCE HALL lead to the main accommodation on the first floor. Doors from the HALLWAY lead firstly to the KITCHEN which is both functional and welcoming. There are ample cupboards and good worktop space, plumbing for washing machine and dishwasher and space for a gas cooker. It features a door leading to steps that descend to the private garden, creating a connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The BATHROOM has a bath with shower over, wash basin and W.C.

The DOUBLE BEDROOM overlooks the rear garden and has fitted wardrobes for storage.

The SITTING ROOM is welcoming and bright with a electric fire in a fireplace for cosy evenings at home. Stairs from here lead up to the LOFT ROOM, currently used as a STUDY, perfect for those who work from home or need a dedicated area for hobbies and creativity. It could also double up as a spare BEDROOM if needed. There are fitted cupboards and a large EAVES STORAGE area, ideal for tucking away Christmas decorations and other personal belongings.

About DOMVS, Wareham

8 South Street, Wareham, BH20 4LT

The DOMVS Approach to Selling Property

We always start with a clear strategy. We take time to understand your home, the local market and buyer behaviour, ensuring pricing and positioning are right from the outset. Every step in the process is meticulously considered, from presentation and marketing through to negotiation and completion.

We get that no two homes are the same, and neither is the way they should be launched. We tailor the approach to suit the property, whether that is a full market launch, an ‘offers over’ strategy or a discreet introduction through our Whisper List. Our role is to generate the right level of interest and convert that into a successful sale.

Once a sale is agreed, our dedicated sales progression team works proactively with all parties to resolve issues early and maintain momentum. This combination of preparation, negotiation and progression is what protects your sale and delivers results.

Our approach is shaped by three core values: integrity, empathy and determination. We give clear, honest advice, understand the personal nature of moving, and remain focused on securing the strongest outcome for our clients.

Our Marketing

Every property benefits from professional photography, carefully written descriptions and, where appropriate, enhanced visuals such as drone footage or virtual staging. This is supported by our in-house marketing team, who deliver targeted campaigns designed to reach an engaged and relevant audience. Our sellers benefit from:

• A fully optimised website attracting an average of 20,500 visitors each month

• Targeted email and digital campaigns to a database of over 20,000 engaged subscribers

• Social media activity generating over 60,000 monthly views and thousands of website visits

• SEO-led campaigns and tailored landing pages designed to connect specific buyers with specific properties

• Access to national and local press opportunities

Our Network

As members of The Guild of Property Professionals and The Mayfair Office, we combine local expertise with national and international reach, including a presence in London. Our Dorset-wide team works collaboratively, sharing buyers across all offices and introducing properties to audiences beyond their immediate location.

About Our Wareham Team

Our Wareham office, on the town’s bustling high street, sits at the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck, an area known for its coastline, countryside and distinctive Dorset character. You’ll be working with Greg, who brings more than three decades of estate agency experience, alongside his local team of property specialists, all with a deep understanding of the town and its surrounding villages. From country houses and quaint cottages to modern developments, we know how to present property in a way that resonates with both local and relocating buyers.

Our Services

Our sales team is complemented by a dedicated lettings and property management team, providing a fully managed service designed to protect property investments and minimise day-to-day involvement. Our holiday lettings team also supports owners seeking an alternative income stream.

Our new homes team works closely with developers and buyers, offering guidance from initial launch through to successful sales, while our Land & Development consultancy advises on site acquisition, planning and value optimisation for both individual plots and larger opportunities.

This breadth of expertise ensures our clients benefit from informed, joined-up advice, whatever their property goals.
