Welcome to 34 Vicarage Lane and this semi-detached chalet bungalow situated close to heart of this highly regarded village of Charminster with its active and friendly community. Following a paved pathway down the side of the property to the front door, on opening you are greeted by the ENTRANCE HALL with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to all the principal ground floor rooms.

Two versatile reception rooms lie to the front of the property with the SITTING ROOM benefiting from built in storage cupboards with shelving on one wall. The sitting room together with the DINING ROOM are of generous proportions and are both light airy rooms with natural light flooding in from the front aspect windows. The wall separating the reception rooms was an addition which could easily be removed to revert to one larger reception room, if required.

The KITCHEN has an array of wall mounted and floor-based cupboards the latter with wooden work surfaces over. The single drainer sink unit is positioned under the window. There is appliance space for a cooker, under counter fridge and freezer and plumbing for washing machine. A door gives access to the rear garden.

The SHOWER room is equipped with a separate shower cubicle, wash-hand basin, W.C. and heated towel rail. On a practical note, there is an understairs storage cupboard.

On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a one single bedroom. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM together with BEDROOM TWO lie off the landing and both bedrooms overlook the front of the property. BEDROOM THREE provides flexibility to either be used as a single bedroom or a home office for those working from home.

Concluding the accommodation is a further SHOWER ROOM, comprising a separate shower cubicle with wash-hand basin and W.C.

Outside
The low maintenance rear garden is completely enclosed and includes areas of shingle and decking. There is a gate to the side to access the front of the property and a further gate to the rear giving access to the garage that lies adjacent to the property, ideal for additional storage or parking.

Location
The desirable village of Charminster lies just 2 miles from the County Town of Dorchester. The village derives its name from the River Cerne and the charming ‘minster’ Norman church of St Mary resulting in “Cerneminster” recorded in 1223 and eventually evolving into Charminster we know and love today. Today, this vibrant and welcoming community has the advantage of a shop/post office, two pubs, a modern village hall and primary school. The nearby county town of Dorchester is famed for its literary history, weekly market, museums, eateries, and well-regarded schools. It is also home to the county hospital and mainline stations to London Waterloo and Bristol. Nearby Weymouth (approx. 20 mins drive) offers breathtaking walks along the Jurassic Coastline as well as an award-winning, golden sandy beach.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on August 16, 2024

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on December 6, 2019 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
