Description
3 BEDROOM END TERRACE HOME WITH A RARE DOUBLE GARAGE AND LANDSCAPED GARDEN IN THE HEART OF POUNDBURY – PERFECT FOR FAMILIES, DOWNSIZERS AND ANYONE WANTING EVERYDAY AMENITIES ON FOOT.
Set on Marsden Street in the award-winning Poundbury development on the western edge of Dorchester, this attractive three bedroom end terrace home offers approximately 947 sq ft (88 sq m) of accommodation arranged over two floors. Built in 2015 in the traditional style Poundbury is known for, the home comprises an entrance hall, a front-facing living room, a spacious dining kitchen, a downstairs WC, three bedrooms and a shower room. Outside, there is a landscaped, low maintenance enclosed rear garden and, a real rarity, a double garage, all within an easy walk of Poundbury's shops, cafés and amenities.
Step inside to a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a handy downstairs WC. The living room sits to the front of the home and is a generous, comfortable space with tall sash-style windows that bring in plenty of natural light and room for a full suite of furniture.
The dining kitchen is the heart of the home. It is fitted with a range of cream shaker-style wall and base units with contrasting worktops, a gas hob with a chimney-style extractor, a built-in oven and tiled flooring, and there is plenty of room for a dining table. French doors open straight onto the garden, making this a lovely, sociable room for family meals and summer entertaining.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, two of which are good sized double rooms, while the third makes an ideal single bedroom, nursery or home office. The shower room is fitted with a large walk-in shower, wash basin and WC.
Outside, the rear garden has been attractively landscaped for easy upkeep, with paved patio seating areas, a paved pathway, established shrubs and planting and timber fencing. It is a private, sheltered space to relax and enjoy the outdoors without the burden of heavy maintenance. The double garage is a genuine bonus, offering secure parking and generous storage space, and to the side of the house there is a small front garden with established planting.
The home is heated by a gas-fired boiler to radiators, with a programmer, room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves, and the boiler was replaced last year. It also benefits from high performance glazing, well insulated walls, roof and floors, and low energy lighting throughout.
The home is currently fitted with a stairlift and mobility aids, and offers a buyer the opportunity to update the décor to their own taste and make it their own.
