A 4 bedroom semi-detached house situated in the popular village of Milborne Port, close to local amenities with a private garden. Garage and allocated parking.


22 Gainsborough is one of just five properties built by Fawcett Homes as part of a select development of modern village homes. Constructed in 2007 of warm reconstituted stone with elegant brick quoins beneath a tiled roof, the house has been thoughtfully extended with a delightful garden conservatory and has been maintained to a good standard throughout offering an impressive 1,494 sq. ft of flexible accommodation. UPVC double-glazed windows were installed in 2021, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort.
Situated in the sought-after village of Milborne Port, the home enjoys a convenient position with local amenities close at hand, while offering a peaceful setting. A welcoming L-shaped entrance hall sets the tone, offering a sense of space and flow. To the front sits a useful study, perfect for home working or a hobby space, while the generous sitting room is filled with natural light thanks to its attractive bay window. A Portuguese stone fireplace with electric fire creates a warm focal point for cosy evenings.
The spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room enjoys a lovely outlook over the garden and provides an excellent social hub for the home. It is fitted with a comprehensive range of cupboards and drawers, along with integrated appliances including an under-counter fridge/freezer, dishwasher, gas hob with extractor, and an eye-level electric double oven. From here, a glazed door leads through to the charming conservatory—an ideal spot to enjoy the summer months and views of the garden. A separate utility room offers further storage, plumbing for a washing machine, and a door to the garden. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefiting from good natural light. Two of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and the main bedroom has the benefit of an en-suite shower room equipped with a shower, basin, WC, and heated towel rail.
