2 bed detached bungalow for sale

Mill Street, Fontmell Magna, Shaftesbury SP7

An enchantingly located bungalow with exceptional gardens and parking on the edge of a lovely village. The property sits well above the Fontmell chalk stream on the southern boundary.

The Dwelling

Set in delightful gardens 32 Mill Street is a detached and extended bungalow with excellent reception space. Whilst requiring some updating now, the property is set up with a highly sensible arrangement of accommodation with the added benefit of a double garage and plenty of parking.

The front door brings you into the kitchen / breakfast room with a separate utility room to one side and the approximate 7.04m x 5.95m (450sqft) sitting room to the other with a feature fireplace. This is a large room with sliding doors to the south facing patio area overlooking the chalk stream at the bottom of the garden. The house continues through to a corridor and onto the bedroom space with two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Accommodation

See floor plan but in essence; an historically extended barn transformed into a spacious bungalow in a wonderful position within the village. All principal rooms face on to the gardens which are predominantly south and west facing. There is a large gravelled parking area with plenty of turning space and the double garage

Outside

Undoubtedly the gardens at 32 Mill Street are special. Raised up above Collyer's Brook that leads to The Fontmell chalk stream, the garden is mostly laid to lawn with flower borders and shrubs giving interest and intrigue throughout. A large terrace area is just outside the sitting room and is ideal for tables and chairs for al fresco entertaining. There is an excellent, well tended vegetable area for the keen gardener bordering the lane behind a wall.
