Description

A beautiful wooden door opens into a welcoming entrance HALLWAY, where warm wooden flooring immediately sets the tone. A discreet under stairs storage area provides practical everyday space, while the hallway offers a natural flow through the ground floor.

The SITTING ROOM is an inviting and characterful space, centred around a log burning stove set upon a slate hearth, creating a cosy focal point. Wall lighting enhances the room’s ambience, while dual aspect windows to the front and side allow an abundance of natural light and pleasant outlooks throughout the day.

Leading from the hallway with a front aspect window is the useful STUDY/ BEDROOM FOUR. Ideal for home working or an extra bedroom for when friends and family come and stay.

To the rear of the property, the beautifully proportioned GARDEN ROOM provides a seamless link between inside and out. Featuring wood effect flooring and underfloor heating this light filled space benefits from dual aspect glazing and double doors opening directly onto the garden, making it perfectly suited for entertaining or relaxed family living.

The KITCHEN is thoughtfully designed and well equipped, fitted with elegant granite worktops incorporating an inset sink and drainer. There is space for an American style fridge freezer, alongside a range of appliances including a built in dishwasher, wine fridge, double oven and gas hob. Underfloor heating adds comfort, while a rear aspect window provides natural light and garden views.

Adjoining the kitchen, the UTILITY ROOM offers further practicality with a stainless steel sink and drainer, space and plumbing for both washing machine and tumble dryer, and a window to the rear aspect.

Beyond, the SUN ROOM is a particularly appealing space, enhanced by tiled flooring and a striking sky lantern which floods the room with light. With rear aspect glazing and double doors opening to the garden, it serves equally well as a dining area or peaceful third reception room.

Double doors lead from the conservatory into the HOBBY ROOM/ HOME OFFICE. This versatile room benefits from wooden flooring and a rear aspect window, making it adaptable for a variety of uses.

The Generous BEDROOM TWO is found on the ground floor level with dual aspect windows and is carpeted.

Completing the ground floor is the beautifully presented FAMILY BATHROOM, comprising a floating W.C, vanity wash hand basin, bath with shower over, tiled, chrome heated towel rail, shaver point and recessed downlighting. A window to the front aspect provides natural ventilation and light.

Back to the hallway and stairs rise to a light and airy landing, enhanced by two front aspect windows and featuring an airing cupboard. BEDROOM THREE, positioned to one end of the house has dual aspect windows to the front and rear.

At the opposite end, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is an impressive and tranquil space, also carpeted and benefiting from extensive built in storage. Dual aspect windows to the front and side create a bright and restful environment perfect to wake up in before heading down to the beach.

Conveniently situated between the bedrooms is the contemporary FAMILY SHOWER ROOM, fitted with a double shower enclosure, W.C, vanity wash hand basin, built in storage cupboard, chrome heated towel rail and part tiled walls, with a front aspect and side aspect window.

Outside
To the front of the property is a generous driveway, providing ample off-road parking and access to a separate garage, workshop and log store, offering excellent storage and flexibility.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to provide a series of attractive and functional areas, including a gravel seating area with a water feature leading to a decked terrace. The other side of the garden includes a lawned area, raised planting beds, views over fields, a quality Rhino™ greenhouse and mature trees.

Please note. The garaging has been subject to surface water run off ingress within the last five years. The main property has not been affected.

Location
Shipton Gorge is a picturesque and idyllic village nestled within the stunning landscape of Dorset. Situated a few miles inland from the dramatic Jurassic Coast, Shipton Gorge offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

We are told that the property benefits from fibre to the home and thus capable of supporting very good broadband speeds.

Surrounded by rolling green hills and lush countryside. The village is characterized by its sense of community, where locals are known for their warm hospitality and strong sense of belonging. Nearby coastal harbours such as Charmouth, Lyme Regis and West Bay are only a short drive away. Nestled between Axminster to the West and Dorchester to the East, there is easy access to main London rail links.

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
