Description

Welcome to this modern, detached family home, which has been comprehensively refurbished providing a fresh, inviting interior. Throughout the property, you will find crisp, newly painted walls and brand-new carpets, newly fitted kitchen and bathroom.

The GROUND FLOOR opens into an entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. Positioned to one side is a separate DINING ROOM, which benefits from a useful built-in understairs storage cupboard. Seamlessly flowing from the dining room is the newly refitted KITCHEN. This contemporary space has brand new modern, sleek units with a 1.5 bowl sink unit, and brand new appliances which include a four-plate induction hob with an external extractor fan overhead, an integrated oven and grill, and a built-in dishwasher. Directly off the kitchen is the UTILITY ROOM which is fitted with additional units, space for a tumble dryer, and plumbing for a washing machine. This room also houses the recently installed Glow-worm gas-fired boiler and has a side door leading outside. There is also a CLOAKROOM which is fitted with a close-coupled WC and wash-hand basin. On the opposite side of the hallway, a door opens into the expansive SITTING ROOM, a wonderfully light space offering a pleasant outlook and sliding patio doors that lead directly out to the SOUTH-FACING rear garden.

UPSTAIRS, the first-floor landing features access to the loft space and a built-in airing cupboard housing a pre-lagged hot water cylinder with slatted shelving. This floor comprises three bedrooms. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a generous double room with the convenience of built-in wardrobes and its own ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM, complete with a WC, washhand basin, vanity mirror, and a combined light and electric shaving point. The SECOND BEDROOM is also a double room and benefits from built-in wardrobes, while the THIRD BEDROOM is a versatile single room, ideal for a child's bedroom or a home office. Serving these bedrooms is the newly refitted FAMILY BATHROOM. Smartly presented, it features a WC with a concealed cistern, a wash-hand basin with a mirror and separate shaving point above, and a panelled bath equipped with a mixer tap and shower attachment.

Outside
The property features a delightful, private, and mainly walled south-facing rear garden, which acts as a wonderful sun trap throughout the day. Immediately abutting the house is a paved terrace area, perfect for outside dining and entertaining. This space is enhanced by a pretty timber pergola and decorative fencing, which elegantly divides the terrace from the main garden area. Beyond the fencing, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and framed by colourful flower borders. A secure gate provides easy pedestrian access to the side and front of the property. Additionally, the property benefits from a SINGLE GARAGE equipped with both power and lighting, which is fronted by a dedicated off-road parking space, offering excellent storage and convenience for vehicles.

Location
Peacefully situated in this well-regarded location, the property is ideally placed for both everyday village life and easy commuting. Formed around the historic architecture of a former traditional estate, the village offers an array of excellent local amenities just a short stroll away. Residents benefit from a well-stocked local shop, a vibrant village hall that hosts regular community events, a cricket club, and beautiful open green spaces perfect for countryside walks. For a wider range of facilities, the bustling county town of Dorchester is located just three miles to the south. Dorchester provides premier shopping, highly regarded schools, a county hospital, and two main-line railway stations offering direct, regular routes to London Waterloo, making this property an ideal choice for families and commuters alike.

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

Our Network

As members of The Guild of Property Professionals and The Mayfair Office, we combine local expertise with national and international reach, including a presence in London. Our Dorset-wide team works collaboratively, sharing buyers across all offices and introducing properties to audiences beyond their immediate location.

About Our Dorchester Team

Based on Dorchester’s historic High West Street, our flagship office has been at the centre of the county town for over 20 years. You’ll be working with Shireen and our experienced Dorchester team, who bring a detailed understanding of both the town and the surrounding villages. From period townhouses to country homes on the edge of open countryside, we handle a wide range of properties, each carefully positioned to reach the right audience and achieve the best possible result.

Our Services

Our sales team is complemented by a dedicated lettings and property management team, providing a fully managed service designed to protect property investments and minimise day-to-day involvement. Our holiday lettings team also supports owners seeking an alternative income stream.

Our new homes team works closely with developers and buyers, offering guidance from initial launch through to successful sales, while our Land & Development consultancy advises on site acquisition, planning and value optimisation for both individual plots and larger opportunities.

This breadth of expertise ensures our clients benefit from informed, joined-up advice, whatever their property goals.
