Welcome to 381 Dorchester Road, an inviting detached period house with the advantage of a very generous, private garden backing onto open fields. This remarkable property seamlessly blends traditional design with a wonderful, modern kitchen/dining room and two further reception rooms with original features. An ideal home with family to consider, or for those seeking a flexible space.

Upon entering you are greeted by a light-filled wide entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and doors to the downstairs accommodation radiating from it. The spacious SITTING ROOM offers the perfect place for socialising or simply to unwind and relax with a bay window to the front allowing plenty of light to cascade in. The ‘heart of the home’ lies in the open plan KITCHEN/DINING/FAMILY ROOM. This expansive and versatile area is designed to be the hub of activity, whether you're preparing a simple meal, enjoying family dinners, or simply spending quality time together. The modern kitchen has a considerable number of base and wall units providing copious storage and there is ample counter space. Spaces for future appliances include a Range Master™ 5x hob gas range cooker with double oven and grill, double fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. (could be purchased under separate negotiation). The seamlessly integrated dining and family space is flooded with natural light via glazed double doors, creating a cheerful ambiance which radiates throughout. A further opening spans through to large formal DINING ROOM with double doors leading to gardens and two further side windows. A conveniently located WET ROOM completes the ground floor layout, providing practicality and ease for both residents and guests.

Ascending to the first floor from the hallway, leaded light long window and large open galleried LANDING leads to four inviting bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed to offer comfort and privacy. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is at the front of the house with picture railing and large bay window. BEDROOM TWO is a further generous double room with beautiful views across the private gardens towards open countryside. BEDROOMS THREE and FOUR are both smaller double rooms. The nearby large SHOWER ROOM has a modern suite providing a built-in corner shower cubicle, marble topped vanity basin and W.C.

Outside
This substantial outdoor space is a true oasis, where gentle landscaping and lush greenery come together to create a rather special retreat. At the front of the property is plentiful parking (up to 5 cars have been parked here) together with the GARAGE/Workshop. The south westerly facing rear garden is substantial and has a diverse selection of well-established fruit trees and lush shrubs. It is thoughtfully designed and an ideal haven for family gatherings and entertainment with large terrace and lawns. Feature mature pond with attractive stone edging, rockery and Greenhouse. Further gate leads to lower gardens with lock up shed, vegetable gardens and second greenhouse.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    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
