  • Delightful, well stocked gardens bordering open fields
  • Opportunity to refurbish and modernise (although new roof)
  • 3 bedrooms plus generous parking with single garage
  • Dorchester approximately 4 miles distance
This three-bedroom single storey residence, which now has a new roof, is approached via the generous sized and well stocked front garden to the front door and the fully ENCLOSED ENTRANCE PORCH, a further door leads into the welcoming ENTRANCE HALL, having a built-in storage cupboard, additional built-in cloaks cupboard, and further airing cupboard with the pre lagged tank with immersion. Access is here to the roof void with loft ladder and light. From the hall, all rooms emanate. The SITTING ROOM is centred around the tiled fireplace and is open plan via a square arch to the DINING ROOM. These reception rooms enjoy plenty of natural light from the large picture window overlooking the extensive front garden and beyond, and from the patio doors in the dining room leading to the south -west facing rear gardens. Both rooms additionally have windows to the west. The KITCHEN has a single bowl double drainer sink unit and a range of largely timber wall mounted and base unit cupboards. Enjoying a delightful view over the gardens the kitchen is accessed from the hall alternatively a sliding door from the dining room.

The bungalow has three bedrooms. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys a view over the delightful front garden, across neighbouring village properties and to the countryside beyond. BEDROOM TWO enjoys a similar view again lying to the front of the bungalow and has a fitted wardrobe, whilst BEDROOM THREE sits to the rear overlooking the private south- west facing rear garden, again with wardrobe built in. The SHOWER ROOM (originally bathroom) has a vanity unit with wash hand basin, WC. and shower.

Concluding the accommodation is an INTEGRAL THROUGHFARE betwixt the bungalow and the garaging, ideal area for kicking off those boots after a country walk. The throughfare has doors to both the front and rear gardens and doors to the hall and the SINGLE GARAGE: with electric up and over door, power and light and natural light coming from the rear window.

Outside
The drive provides off road parking for four cars (tandem style) leading in turn to the GARAGE. There is additional paved parking area.

The frontage to this quiet village close extends to some 70 ft. Both the front and rear gardens have quite clearly been much loved.

The part banked front garden is well stocked with a variety of plants and trees and has a generous area of level lawn. A paved path leads around to the side and rear gardens, a patio provides for a seating area, ideal for enjoying this private and tranquil garden and for spilling out from the dining room via the patio doors.

There is a generous area of lawn whilst brick edged steps invite up the garden. Notably there are delightfully well stocked beds and borders providing both colour and interest. To the rear boundary is an array of plants, trees and shrubbery providing a most delightful backdrop to this south -west facing and private garden, beyond are fields.

Location
Martinstown, with the village green overlooked by the ancient church of St Martin’s and a charming array of period cottages, it is the quintessential Dorset village and, as such, is highly regarded in the area.

With quick and easy access to the county town of Dorchester and Prince Charles’ Poundbury, just 4 miles away, it is well located for educational, transport (mainline stations London/Waterloo & also Bristol), individual shops, delicatessens, restaurants within a town steeped in history and noted for its period architecture.
