*OPEN FOR INSPECTION SATURDAY 26TH JUNE 10:00 - 13:00 by appointment only*

This most imposing detached residence is believed to have been constructed in the 1920s and stands proudly within just over 1/3 acre of grounds on one of Dorchester's most highly regarded roads.    Having been in the same family for over 42 years, this charming home has been lovingly cared for by its current owners and boasts impressive features such as the large gravel driveway and two garages to the front.

The entrance hall is an impressive open space with high ceilings and leads to the principal ground floor rooms of the house. There is also a useful cloakroom/WC positioned underneath the wide staircase.   The sitting room is a particularly bright and airy space benefitting from a dual aspect and a large bay window to the side aspect whilst wood panelled walls reveal the era of this beautiful and characterful home. Just as imposing as the sitting room, the dining room again features a dual aspect and enjoys pleasant views over the garden.   Having undergone more recent improvements, the modern kitchen is positioned at the rear of the home and adjacent to the dining room - presenting the opportunity for further expansion subject to the necessary prior inspections. Next to the kitchen, the utility room offers space for the usual appliances and also provides access to a ground floor shower room with a separate toilet and an access door to the driveway and garages. A separate study completes the ground floor accommodation, this room could also be utilised as another bedroom if required.   

The first floor comprises an impressive bright and airy landing area leading to four bedrooms with a large bathroom/shower room and separate airing cupboard.

Outside, the property is approached via five bar double opening gates leading to a large gravelled driveway and two large garages to the side of the property.   The plot in total measures approximately just over 0.35 acres and benefits from being level and predominantely laid to lawn with mature hedged borders, in addition to a private decking area suitable for making use of the summer sun!
