Highfield Close, Charminster, Dorchester, Dorset DT2

Detached bungalow with annexe accomodation enjoying elevated views over the surrounding coutryside. Offered with no onward chain.

Situated in an elevated position within a private cul-de-sac, this well-presented detached bungalow enjoys far-reaching countryside views, a landscaped garden and additional independent accommodation. Leading from the driveway the property is accessed via the conservatory leading to a central hallway providing access to the principal rooms. The living room is a particularly light and inviting space, benefitting from large windows framing open field views and a feature log burner, creating a cosy focal point. The recently fitted kitchen is stylish and practical, offering ample storage and worktop space, and leads through to a useful utility/boot room with external access ideal for day-to-day living. There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both served by a contemporary family bathroom fitted with both a bath and separate shower. A conservatory provides further reception space, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden and offering flexibility for dining, relaxing or entertaining.

Externally, the property truly excels. The wraparound garden has been thoughtfully landscaped and arranged over tiers, creating a variety of seating areas and planting beds. A paved terrace provides the perfect vantage point to take in the far-reaching views across the neighbouring fields. A timber shed, complete with power (off grid solar) and lighting, offers excellent potential as a home office, studio or hobby space. A particular feature of the property is the detached garage with an extension to the rear, which has been adapted to provide additional accommodation. This includes a mezzanine bunk-style bedroom, shower room with WC, and a kitchen area offering scope for guest accommodation, independent living or a home workspace. To the front, there is off-street parking for at least two vehicles.

Situation
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.
