The property is set on the outskirts of Charminster, which is a traditional Dorset Village. There are two public houses, a primary school, shop and post office, village hall and parish church. The village is two miles north from the county town of Dorchester famous for its Thomas Hardy connections, where a wider range of schools, shopping, leisure facilities and hospitals can be found. Communications are excellent with main line railway links to London Waterloo and Bristol cross channel services at Poole an airport at Bournemouth and despite the very rural nature of the area there is a very effective road network close by.

The property resides in a generous overall plot extending to 0.2 acres. The approach and front garden of the property makes up the majority of the outside space with a driveway leading up from the road and sections of lawn interspersed with mature trees, shrubs and borders. The rear garden is gently sloping again with areas of lawn and mature trees as well a patio/ area of hardstanding and greenhouse. Both the front and rear garden enjoy pleasant aspects overlooking the surrounding hills and countryside and offer the space to improve and extend the property further, subject to the necessary consents. There is ample off road parking with parking for a number of vehicles and space to improve further on this. A tandem length garage provides additional parking and storage and benefits from internal access to the property.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
