Description
Situation - The property is situated in the charming Dorset village of Stratton, nestled within the scenic Frome Valley just a short distance from Dorchester. It offers an appealing combination of countryside surroundings, a friendly community, a well-regarded local pub, and convenient access to nearby amenities and the A37. The village itself benefits from The Saxon Arms, a village hall, and a large green, with a strong community spirit supported by a variety of active clubs and societies, as well as easy access to open countryside and numerous walking routes. Dorchester is steeped in history enjoying a central position along the Jurassic Coastline and also some of the county's most noted period architecture, all set amongst a beautiful rural countryside. Dorchester offers a plethora of shopping and social facilities including a cinema, County Museum, leisure centre, Borough Gardens and a choice of many excellent public houses and restaurants. The town has two main employers, namely the Dorset County Hospital and the Dorset County Council. There are major train links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads and regular bus routes to adjoining towns.
Key Features - On approach, a door opens into a beautifully presented and generously sized hallway, which provides access to all principal ground floor rooms, including a convenient w/c and cloakroom. A generous living room enjoys plenty of natural light from its dual aspect. A wood burner with mantle and surround create a cozy focal point and French doors opening directly onto the garden, while a separate dining room also benefits from garden access, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen overlooks the garden and is fitted with a range of units and integrated appliances including a 5-ring gas hob and oven, a 1 ½ bowl sink with mixer tap and dishwasher. A second door opens into a spacious utility room with additional storage, appliance space, and its own external access. Upstairs, the landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a main bedroom with built-in storage and an en-suite featuring a corner bath, two further double bedrooms, one with additional storage, and a fourth room suited to a child’s bedroom, study or guest space, along with a modern family bathroom comprised of a panel enclosed bath with fitted vanity storage, w/c and wash hand basin. Overall, the home offers a well-balanced layout designed for practical and comfortable family living.
Outside, the property enjoys a delightful southerly facing garden that takes full advantage of stunning panoramic views over the impressive Roman Aqueduct. Designed with ease of maintenance in mind, the garden also features a summer house or potting shed, greenhouse, and a fenced off space for growing vegetables, creating a peaceful and practical outdoor setting.
