3 bedroom bungalow for sale

College Arms Close is a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Stour Row. This pretty North Dorset village is situated in the beautiful Blackmore Vale, three miles southwest of the ancient hill town of Shaftesbury.

The bungalow is set on a spacious plot and has a generously sized garden with beautiful views. Enter the bungalow into a spacious HALLWAY, from which all rooms are accessible. The SITTING ROOM at the front of the property is a generous, light-filled space that was previously open to the adjacent dining room. Reopening it by removing the partition wall should be straightforward if required. The modern and bright KITCHEN at the back of the property offers lovely garden views and features ample storage, an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher, eye-level electric oven, and electric hob. The kitchen opens to the DINING ROOM and leads to a very useful UTILITY ROOM, which provides additional storage, space and plumbing for a washing machine, along with access to the garden.

All the bedrooms are accessed from the hallway, including the PRINCIPAL DOUBLE BEDROOM, which features built-in wardrobes. BEDROOM TWO and BEDROOM THREE are both smaller double bedrooms, perfect for guests, teenagers or smaller children. The bright FAMILY BATHROOM has a modern white suite, including a bath with a shower over it, a wash hand basin with a built-in vanity cupboard, and a W.C.

Stairs rise to the first floor, leading to a small landing area and a spacious loft that the owner currently uses as a home office. On the other side of the landing, a door accesses an additional large loft area, ideal for storage.
