3 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Dorset

1 3 2

Meuse House, is a striking, detached chalet bungalow set within enchanting gardens, giving it its name meaning 'a natural hiding place'.

Stepping from the private driveway up to the front door you are welcomed into a bright and spacious ENTRANCE HALL with original parquet flooring which runs throughout the ground floor of the house. Light fills the hallway; stairs rise on the left and doors lead to ground floor rooms. Across the hallway is the SITTING ROOM an attractively spacious room with large sunny windows looking out to the lush gardens and seating areas. In winter, with the fire roaring, it is the perfect place to snuggle down at the end of the day.

Next to the sitting room is a generous KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM. The KITCHEN AREA is well organised with units and an impressive two metre dining table that can easily seat 8 people.   The dishwasher (full size) is in the kitchen as is a 'stand alone' double oven gas cooker. Windows look out across the garden.

A step down from the kitchen is a PANTRY which currently houses an American style fridge, washer/dryer and a second sink… perfect for dropping off sandy beach clothes or muddy boots when coming in from the deck or garage.

To the north side of the house is the downstairs sleeping area. BEDROOM TWO is a large double with a big window looking out onto the side garden. It has plentiful space for wardrobes, chest of drawers and a seating area.

BEDROOM THREE is another large double bedroom with fitted mirrored wardrobes reflecting even more light in from the picture window.

Across the hall is a BATHROOM with pedestal basin, bath, overhead shower, W.C. and a further, separate, W.C.


Returning to the hallway, stairs lead you to the FIRST FLOOR into a huge space that is currently used as living room, workspace, with a separate sleeping area. The room has a multitude of uses and could either be a spectacular PRINCIPAL BEDROOM or large open plan living space or indeed both. With vaulted ceilings, spotlights and space for a double bed, wardrobe, sofas and storage units. The Velux™ windows offers distant views over Swanage and at night afford spectacular star gazing opportunities. Adjacent to this is the stylish ENSUITE with walk in rain shower and lofty ceiling height.

Outside
A private driveway brings you to the front of the property, leading to a single garage which the current vendors use to store kayaks etc. These can be easily loaded onto the car before heading down to the beach. Decorative planting at the front of the property creates a separate 'garden room' surrounded by established shrubs and trees. A side gate to the left, leads to the rear garden, a private and secluded space. Decking runs the full width of the main garden and provides an excellent vantage point to look down to the ornamental pond and exotic planting. It is very private. To the left of the garden is a shady nook where you can hide away garden equipment or dry beach clothes etc. To the right and a few steps down to another little nook where the vendors tend to enjoy breakfast, making the most of the morning sunshine.

There is access to the garden from the garage, pantry and sitting room.

Location
Set in the perfect location for accessing the town, beaches and numerous walks. A favourite of the vendor in the early evening is to wander along the seafront to Peveril Point to look out to sea and look for dolphins.

The 7-minute walk from here to the beach is great for breakfast on the beach and in summer, they enjoy yoga on the pier in the summer early mornings.

If you have a day to spend wandering, then the walk to Studland over Ballard Down checking for orchids and Adonis Blue butterflies & listening to sky larks is a favourite.

Swanage has amazing cafes, restaurants, galleries and independent shops, the owner's favourite is to head to Java for great coffee & carrot cake or a fabulous, toasted sandwich.
