Description

A unique, detached property nestled in the heart of Dorchester, quietly positioned within a small and private mews development, all within comfortable walking distance of the town centre. This charming home offers a rare combination of privacy, character and convenience, perfectly suited to those seeking a well-balanced lifestyle close to amenities yet tucked away from the bustle.

Stepping into the property, the ENTRANCE HALL immediately sets a welcoming tone for the rest of the home, with two useful storage cupboards providing everyday convenience. From here, doors lead through to both bedrooms, thoughtfully positioned to create a comfortable and well-balanced layout.

The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a particularly appealing space with a dual aspect and featuring a vaulted ceiling with two Conservation Rooflights and exposed beams, adding both character and a sense of volume. A fitted double wardrobe offers built in storage, while the proportions of the room allow for additional furniture, creating a calm and restful environment. BEDROOM TWO is equally versatile, ideal as a guest room, home office or occasional bedroom depending on individual needs.

A short staircase leads down to the heart of the home, where the accommodation opens beautifully through double glazed doors into a light and inviting SITTING ROOM. Generous in size, this is a space designed for both relaxation and entertaining, with a natural flow throughout. A generous cased opening with decorative architrave opens directly into the SUN ROOM, providing an ideal spot for dining or quiet enjoyment, overlooking the enclosed garden and seamlessly connecting you to the outdoors. A glazed door provides direct access to the garden.

Through an elegant archway, the KITCHEN is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and floor mounted units, complemented by work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, creating a clean and practical workspace. Positioned beneath a window enjoying a pleasant outlook, there is a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink with side drainer and mixer tap over. Integrated appliances include a Baumatic ™ eye level double oven, induction hob with extractor hood above, fridge/ freezer and a Hotpoint ™ washing machine. The layout has been carefully considered to maximise space while maintaining a sociable connection to the main living area.

Returning to the inner hall, the BATHROOM is well appointed and finished with a contemporary feel. It features a P-shaped bath with shower over, pedestal wash hand basin with mirrored cabinet above, heated towel rail and a W.C.

Throughout, the property has a light and well-maintained feel, with a layout that makes excellent use of the space available. The combination of character features, modern fittings and a flowing arrangement of rooms creates a home that is both easy to live in and quietly distinctive.

Outside
Outside, the property enjoys a southerly facing, fully enclosed garden that offers both privacy and a pleasant outlook. Designed with ease of maintenance in mind, the garden is mainly laid to lawn and framed by mature shrubs and established planting, creating a natural sense of seclusion.

A paved patio wraps around the sun room, providing a seamless extension of the living space and an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Tucked neatly around the corner, a further seating area offers an additional place to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Practical features include an outside tap for added convenience, a useful storage shed and gated side access, along with pedestrian access via a shared footpath.

In addition, to the side of the property is a small communal gravelled garden, forming an excellent sun trap and offering a further seating option. The property also benefits from one allocated parking space together with visitors’ parking, ensuring both convenience and flexibility for residents and guests alike.

Location
Located in an exceptionally central yet peaceful position, 12 Princes Mews enjoys the rare advantage of both convenience and tranquillity within the heart of Dorchester. Just moments away are the Borough Gardens, offering an attractive green space with tennis courts, a traditional bandstand and seasonal planting, ideal for quiet enjoyment.

Within easy reach of the town centre, a comprehensive range of amenities can be found, including high street and independent retailers, cafés, restaurants, banks, Dorset County Hospital and a popular weekly market. Dorchester itself, the County Town of Dorset, is steeped in history and renowned for its notable period architecture, all set within the surrounding countryside.

The property is also well placed for practical living, with Dorchester South railway station providing direct services to London Waterloo and Dorchester West railway station offering connections to Bristol and beyond. A regular bus service is also available within walking distance of the property.
