Versatile Five Bedroom Detached Home with Annexe & Planning Permission – Sought-After Dorchester Location – Vendor Suited

Situated on a generous plot in one of Dorchester’s most desirable residential areas – Culliford Road North – this spacious and highly versatile five bedroom detached chalet bungalow presents a fantastic opportunity for multi-generational living or future development. Set back from a quiet, tree-lined street and within walking distance of Sunninghill School and Dorchester town centre, this is a rare chance to secure a truly adaptable home in a highly sought-after location.

The main house is well laid out and offers excellent proportions throughout. A welcoming hallway provides a great sense of flow and direct access to the adjoining annexe. The ground floor includes a bright, airy sitting room with garden views, a downstairs W.C., and a utility room with plumbing for appliances. The extended kitchen/diner/conservatory is the heart of the home, complete with a range of integrated appliances including a built-in electric oven, Neff hob, dishwasher, fridge freezer, warming drawer, and microwave oven. This stylish, sociable space opens onto the rear garden – ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.

Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized double bedrooms, a family bathroom with freestanding roll-top bath, and a separate shower room for added convenience. The main home has been tastefully updated throughout while maintaining a warm, homely feel.

The self-contained one-bedroom annexe is perfect for a relative, guest accommodation, or an independent family member. It includes a spacious double bedroom, a bright conservatory, a modern kitchen with integrated appliances (fridge freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, warming drawer, electric oven, and gas hob), a shower room, and a large sitting room with feature gas fireplace and sliding doors to the garden. The annexe benefits from its own private entrance as well as internal access via the main hallway, offering both flexibility and privacy.

A further self-contained one-bedroom apartment adds to the property’s versatility. With its own private entrance, it features a large double bedroom, en suite shower room, and an open-plan kitchenette with an upstairs snug/living area. Planning permission is in place to extend this part of the property upwards, offering scope to create even more space and add value if desired.

The property is approached via a generous driveway with parking for up to four vehicles. The mature garden is a true highlight, featuring a combination of patio space, a large lawn, a rose garden, fruit trees, a vegetable patch, and colourful shrub and flower borders. Enclosed by fencing and accessible from both sides, the garden also offers two shingled areas at the front, mature planting, and gated entry, creating a wonderful sense of privacy and kerb appeal.

Ideally located close to Dorchester town centre, the property offers access to a wealth of amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, cultural attractions, and highly regarded schools. Excellent transport links, including two mainline train stations, and close proximity to the Jurassic Coast, make this the perfect setting for those seeking both town convenience and coastal lifestyle.

This exceptional home presents a unique opportunity – whether you’re seeking a spacious family residence, flexible living arrangements, or a property with development potential.
