Sands Lane, Small Dole

Situated along a peaceful lane in the popular village of Small Dole, this attractive three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a great combination of village living, beautifully presented accommodation and a superb garden.

With a plethora of countryside walks quite literally on your doorstep, the property also enjoys the convenience of being within easy walking distance of the village shop with Post Office and the popular local pub, making it an ideal home for those seeking both tranquillity and a strong sense of community.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, the home has been significantly improved, most notably with the slight extension and installation of a stunning high-specification luxury family bathroom in 2018. Finished to an exceptional standard, it features underfloor heating, a freestanding bath, a spacious walk-in shower and stylish contemporary fittings.

The accommodation is well proportioned and filled with natural light throughout. An inviting entrance hall leads to a dining room or useful study ideal for home working, before opening into the well-equipped kitchen with large fitted pantry. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room with space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and large fridge freezer together with a door leading to the garden and access to the ground floor cloakroom. A separate pantry provides additional storage.

The generous dual-aspect sitting room is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the home, centred around a cosy log-burning stove and featuring glazed double doors that open directly onto the rear garden, creating a bright and welcoming living space.

Upstairs, there are two spacious double bedrooms together with a third bedroom, currently arranged as a dressing room, offering flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. The loft is part-boarded, providing useful additional storage. Further benefits include double glazing throughout, off-road parking for several vehicles and the added convenience of an electric vehicle charging point.

The garden is undoubtedly a defining feature of this great home. Significantly larger than those found with many three-bedroom semi-detached properties in the village, it has been thoughtfully landscaped across split levels. A generous paved terrace provides the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends or simply enjoying your morning coffee in the morning sun before steps rise to an expansive lawn enclosed by deep, well-stocked borders featuring an abundance of mature and ornamental planting, including an impressive variety of roses, hydrangeas and delphiniums, to name but a few, together with established trees including two productive apple trees (one cooking and one eating), a plum tree, a cherry tree and a silver birch.

A raised deck provides a peaceful spot for al-fresco dining or simply relaxing while overlooking the beautifully tended grounds. To the rear, a large timber-framed outbuilding offers excellent storage alongside a separate garden shed, making the space as practical as it is beautiful.
