The Property - Offered to the market with no onward chain, this well-presented three-bedroom village house provides deceptively spacious accommodation, together with ample off-road parking and a garage to the rear. The property is conveniently situated within easy reach of the coast at Ringstead Bay and Weymouth beach.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway with a useful cloakroom. The well-proportioned sitting room features an attractive chimney breast with stone surround and hearth, together with a wood-burning stove and mantelpiece. Fitted shelving and a TV connection are provided. French doors lead into a good-sized, UPVC double-glazed conservatory, which overlooks the garden and offers direct access outside.

There is a separate dining room, offering ample space for a table and chairs, while the kitchen is fitted with a range of cupboards and drawers, generous work surfaces and a range-style gas cooker, with space for additional appliances.

On the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all benefiting from built-in storage and enjoying views across the neighbouring farmyard, with the village pump providing an attractive focal point opposite. The principal bedroom is a comfortable double and benefits from an en-suite shower room. Completing the accommodation is a spacious family bathroom, attractively tiled and fitted with a white suite comprising a roll-top bath, bidet, wash basin, WC and separate shower.

Outside - The rear garden has been arranged for ease of maintenance, with a paved patio adjoining the house and raised gravel beds. There is space for a garden shed, while the remaining garden is gravelled to provide additional parking. This area could readily be reinstated as lawn to create a larger, family-friendly garden. Beyond the access road is an additional area of terraced garden with steps, attractive stone walls and a variety of mature shrubs and trees.

The property also benefits from a garage with power and lighting, along with ample off-road parking.
