Garage and parking
Generous Plot
Garden Room
A spacious, two-bedroom detached bungalow set in a peaceful location, offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
The Property
This detached village bungalow is set on a generous plot at the end of a private no-through road. Immaculately presented, the property is light and bright throughout.
Accommodation
The accommodation comprises an entrance porch leading into a generous hallway with attractive woodblock flooring, a storage cupboard and a loft hatch with a pull-down ladder. The sitting room features a large UPVC double-glazed window overlooking the front garden, with lovely views beyond. A chimney breast with hearth houses a wood-burning stove and there is a TV connection point. An archway opens into the dining room, which in turn leads to a spacious garden room via sliding patio doors.
The garden room is a fantastic, year-round living space with UPVC double-glazed windows, two radiators and a tiled floor. It offers ample room for a dining table and chairs as well as a snug seating area, all while enjoying views over the rear garden and surrounding hills. The kitchen is well-fitted with a range of cupboards and drawers, complemented by generous work surfaces and a sink with drainer. Appliances include an electric hob, integrated double oven, fridge and freezer. There is also space for a washing machine and either a tumble dryer or dishwasher.
Both bedrooms are generously sized double rooms, with the second bedroom featuring built-in wardrobes. The bathroom has been updated with a contemporary white suite, including a bath, separate shower, WC, basin and a heated towel rail.
The property further benefits from UPVC double glazing, oil-fired central heating with a modern boiler, and a spacious driveway offering ample off-road parking.
Outside
To the front of the property, there is a parking and turning area leading to a detached garage with an electric up-and-over door. To the rear of the garage is a boiler room housing the oil-fired boiler, with additional space for freezers.
Steps lead down to a pathway, front terrace, and lawn, which is bordered by hedging on two sides and enjoys views over the surrounding countryside.
The lawn extends around the western side of the bungalow to the main garden—an expansive area featuring a well-maintained lawn interspersed with a variety of shrubs and mature, well-stocked flower beds. Adjacent to the Garden Room and rear doors is a circular paved seating area, enclosed by a semi-circular low brick wall topped with trellis. Additional features include a greenhouse, garden sheds, a vegetable garden, an outside water tap, and an oil tank.
Situation
Cheselbourne is a sought-after village in mid Dorset, with a thriving primary school and church. Dorchester, approximately 9 miles away, offers a wide range of shops, cultural and recreational facilities, and a mainline railway station to London Waterloo. Blandford Forum and Sherborne are around 10 and 15 miles away, respectively. Nearby Puddletown (4 miles) provides first and middle schools, a shop/post office, modern doctor's surgery, and other amenities. Ansty, also about 4 miles, features a farm shop, sub-post office, and The Fox Inn.
There is golf at Dorchester, the East Dorset and Blandford courses. The area is ideal for walking and riding, with a network of footpaths and bridleways across the rolling countryside. The Jurassic Coast, with beaches at Ringstead and Weymouth, is within easy reach by car.
