A very spacious and well-maintained detached bungalow set on a generous plot of more than one third of an acre. The bungalow has been extended to provide a fabulous large kitchen/dining/living room at the back with lovely views across the garden. In addition, there is a pretty living room at the front, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious hallway, utility room and cloakroom. The property is well presented with quality wooden flooring throughout the hall and living room, double glazed windows and doors, uPVC soffits and fascias. A gated driveway opens to extensive parking, which leads to a double garage behind the bungalow. There is a level front garden from where there is a lovely view towards the Marshwood Vale.
Most of the garden lies at the back of the house and is west facing, ideal for afternoon/evening barbeques and relaxing in the sunshine. The garden is mainly level and attractively landscaped with a patio seating area next to the property and a path that leads down the garden to the summer house and beyond, where there is a large vegetable and fruit garden.

Marshwood is a small village situated on the edge of the Marshwood Vale in West Dorset. It boasts a Primary School in the Woodroffe Pyramid, a Church and a Garage offering servicing, repairs and MOTs. Most famously, the Bottle Inn at Marshwood plays host the World Nettle Eating Championships. Although the pub has been closed for some time, it is currently being renovated and it is hoped that it will open in the winter of 2024. The Jurassic coast at Lyme Regis is just under 8 miles to the south and the nearest towns are Axminster (6.5miles), Beaminster (7.5miles) and Crewkerne (8.4 miles).

We have a passion for property combined with traditional values of service, with an emphasis on excellent communication. We want to match your property to the right buyer and make the whole process as stress free as we can, leaving you with the confidence of being able to recommend our service to others.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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

    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
