Description

A beautifully presented modern DETACHED THATCHED HOME (built in 2010) that combines classic Dorset character with a smart, contemporary interior. The house has been impeccably maintained and modernised throughout, creating a bright, spacious, and comfortable living environment.

The SITTING ROOM enjoys a wonderful sense of light, with wide glazed doors opening to the garden and an integrated wood burner forming a natural focal point. It is an inviting and well-proportioned space, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining.

The KITCHEN is stylish and practical, fitted with quality units, a range of white goods including a five-ring gas hob and cooker and a useful, sociable breakfast bar and island. There is also space for a breakfast table or, as the current owners have configured it, a relaxed seating area overlooking the rear garden via tri-folding doors that bring the outside in. The DINING ROOM sits alongside, providing a warm and elegant setting for family meals or gatherings.

The ground floor also includes a UTILITY ROOM and a CLOAKROOM/W.C., both finished to the same exacting standard as the rest of the home.

Upstairs, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM benefits from a calm, refined feel. The DRESSING ROOM, originally the FOURTH BEDROOM, has been cleverly reconfigured to complement the principal suite beautifully, offering generous storage and an elegant sense of flow. The layout still allows for an easy return to a four-bedroom format if desired.

BEDROOM TWO is a generous double room, well-proportioned and finished in soft, neutral tones and includes a well-appointed EN SUITE with a shower cubicle, W.C., and wash hand basin. BEDROOM THREE is another double room with a rear aspect, currently utilised as a home office. The FAMILY BATHROOM is partially tiled and contemporary in style, finished to the same high standard as the rest of the home. It features a large, deep freestanding bath with an overhead shower, W.C., and wash hand basin.

Outside
Outside, the property continues to impress. A generous driveway provides ample parking and access to a single GARAGE. Beyond this lies a substantial STUDIO/OUTBUILDING, currently used as a gym, offering excellent flexibility for hobbies, home working, or creative use. There is also a hot tub, ideal for enjoying the seclusion and relaxation of your surroundings. The gardens are private, neatly landscaped, and arranged to provide pleasant areas for seating and relaxation.

This is a home that delivers all the charm of a traditional thatched cottage combined with the comfort, practicality, and visual appeal of a high-quality modern renovation. It stands as an ideal blend of period character and contemporary finish, perfect for buyers seeking something special in a well-connected Dorset village.

Location
The property is quietly situated and discreetly tucked away, Lytchett Matravers is a highly regarded and well-served Dorset village, positioned between Poole and Blandford Forum and surrounded by rolling countryside. It offers the charm of rural living with the convenience of easy access to key routes, including the A31 and A350, making it ideal for those who commute to Poole, Bournemouth, or Dorchester.

The village itself has a strong community spirit and an excellent range of amenities. These include a well-stocked village store and post office, a popular pub, a pharmacy, and several takeaways and local services. Families are particularly drawn to Lytchett Matravers thanks to its well-regarded schools, including Lytchett Matravers Primary and the sought-after Lytchett Minster Secondary School.

There are numerous countryside walks and bridleways on the doorstep, while the coast at Poole Harbour and the natural beauty of the Purbeck Hills are only a short drive away. Together, these features make Lytchett Matravers one of the area’s most desirable and practical villages, combining everyday convenience with an authentic Dorset village setting.

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

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.
