Description

An attractive converted stone farmhouse by CG Fry Builders, offering three bedrooms, an enclosed garden, carport, and parking, situated on the edge of Fordington, close to Dorchester town centre and riverside walks.

The Property - Fully renovated in 2006 by the renowned builders CG Fry, this attractive semi-detached home combines charming period features with the convenience of modern fixtures and fittings. Situated within an exclusive courtyard development of similar converted properties, the house further benefits from a gated carport and an additional parking space.

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, just a short walk from Fordington and the town centre, this appealing stone-built property offers well-balanced and spacious accommodation throughout. The sitting room enjoys views over the sunny rear garden and features a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting living space.

The open-plan kitchen/dining room spans the full width of the property, providing ample space for both family living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units offering ample storage, together with a double oven, gas hob with extractor fan, integrated dishwasher, and space for an American-style fridge freezer and washing machine. A convenient ground floor cloakroom with WC completes the downstairs accommodation.

On the first floor are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly well-proportioned room with built-in wardrobes and an attractive fireplace. A wash hand basin remains in place, along with a section of wall indicating the former position of an en-suite, offering potential for reinstatement if desired.

There is a further double bedroom to the front of the property, also benefiting from built-in storage, while the third bedroom has been fitted with a full wall of built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom is finished in a traditional style and includes a large modern shower cubicle.

Outside - The rear courtyard garden enjoys a southerly aspect and is fully enclosed by high stone walls, creating a private and secluded feel.

There is a carport providing parking and additional storage at the far end, as well as in the eaves. In addition, there is an extra parking space located in front of the carport.

Situation - Located in the desirable Fordington area of Dorchester, the property is ideally placed for scenic countryside walks and the open spaces of Salisbury Fields. Dorchester town centre is within easy reach, offering a wide range of shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, including the popular Brewery Square development. Dorset County Hospital is also nearby.

Dorchester is well served by excellent transport links, with Dorchester South and Dorchester West stations providing direct services to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, respectively.
