Welcome to this well-presented family residence, a much-loved home for over 40 years, ready now for its next chapter. This handsome detached house occupies a generous sized plot in this leafy well-established road within walking distance of all the facilities the county town has to offer.
Entering through a recessed front door, the accommodation commences with an inviting HALL featuring a half-turn staircase rising to the first floor. From this centre point doors radiate out to all principal ground floor rooms. The SITTING ROOM is bathed in light from both ends with patio doors framing views of the extensive rear garden. This welcoming reception room is centred around the natural stone fireplace with coal effect gas fire for those cooler evenings. The separate DINING ROOM is also light filled with a lovely south-facing bay window, and readily accommodates a sizeable dining table for entertaining and family gatherings. Discreetly positioned off the hall is the CLOAKROOM with corner wash hand basin and W.C. The KITCHEN BREAKFAST ROOM has a considerable number of wall and base units, the butler sink with timber drainer either side is ideally positioned under the window offering views over the extensive garden. Integral appliances include a Neff double oven, 5 burner Neff hob with fume hood over, under counter Hotpoint dishwasher together with Indesit washing machine. In addition, there is plentiful room for a table and chairs for breakfasting or less formal dining. A SIDE LOBBY from the kitchen has quarry tiled flooring, window and door to outside and the driveway, and on a practical note here there is an ever-useful storage cupboard that also houses the Viessmann boiler.
Venturing upstairs, the landing provides access to the roof void and a small storage cupboard. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has windows to both the front and side, providing plentiful natural light. The ENSUITE BATHROOM is generously proportioned: the suite comprising pedestal wash hand basin, W.C., and jacuzzi-style panelled bath with hand shower attachment. The walls are pleasingly fully tiled and there is a heated towel rail. BEDROOM TWO also lies to the front of the residence with a lovely bay window overlooking the drive and the leafy street scene. Also benefiting from an ENSUITE FACILITY the suite comprising a generous shower cubicle, wash hand basin and W.C., walls once again fully tiled walls and heated towel rail. BEDROOM THREE is also a double bedroom and overlooks the rear gardens and has a built-in wardrobe with adjacent cupboard housing the hot water cylinder with immersion. BEDROOM FOUR is a small single bedroom and lies to the front of the residence. Concluding the accommodation is the fully tiled FAMILY BATHROOM/SHOWER ROOM with W.C., wash hand basin, heated towel rail shower cubicle and jacuzzi-style panelled bath.
Outside
A brick wall provides the front boundary, and the paver driveway provides plentiful space for parking. The paver drive continues to the side of this handsome residence leading in turn to the DETACHED DOUBLE GARAGING. The garage has an automated garage door, power, light, window and side personnel door. To the rear of the garaging is a timber GARDEN SHED for the garden tools.
The REAR GARDEN is a delight extending to over 100 ft with generous paved patio for entertaining and provides the perfect vantage point to simply sit, survey and to enjoy the garden. Currently this extensive garden is a bit of a blank canvass largely arranged to lawn, ideal for kicking that ball about and outdoor activities.
Location
Set in the highly regarded area of Manor Park, on one of Dorchester's much favoured tree lined roads, this four-bedroom home is within the immediate catchment area for Thomas Hardye School and is perfectly positioned for ready and easy access to the town centre, and the glorious open countryside. The County Town offers plentiful amenities including mainline rail links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, two cinemas, arts centre, restaurants and wine bars, and the county hospital. An ideal location being close enough to be within an easy walk of a considerable number of facilities and yet being sufficiently distant to enjoy a sense of quiet.
