About
A detached four bedroom family home set within a quiet private road on the edge of the popular Dorset town of Stalbridge.
Occupying a generous corner plot, the property offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation including three reception rooms and a notably large and bright entrance hall that creates an immediate sense of space on arrival.
Externally, the home benefits from wrap-around gardens and a double garage, with off-road parking, making it ideal for families or those seeking generous living both inside and out.
The property has been owned by the same family since new in 1999 and, while now in need of general updating, presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer to modernise and personalise a substantial home to suit their own tastes and requirements.
The layout lends itself well to reconfiguration if desired, and the corner plot position enhances both privacy and potential.
The property also benefits from the addition of fully owned solar panels to the back of the property.
Situated within walking distance of Stalbridge’s amenities yet enjoying a peaceful edge-of-town setting, the property combines convenience with a more private residential feel.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious detached home in a sought-after location, offering significant potential for improvement and long-term value.
Accomodation Inside The accommodation is arranged over two floors and is well balanced, offering generous and versatile living space throughout.
The property is entered via a spacious and bright entrance hall which immediately creates a welcoming first impression and provides access to the principal ground floor rooms.
The sitting room is a comfortable and well proportioned space, featuring a focal point electric fireplace and enjoying a natural flow through to the dining room.
This connection between the two rooms creates an ideal arrangement for both everyday living and entertaining, while allowing each space to retain its own identity.
The dining room enjoys pleasant views over the garden and provides a practical link between the living accommodation and the kitchen.
The kitchen is a generous sized kitchen diner, offering ample worktop and storage space along with room for a dining table, making it a practical and sociable area for family use.
From the kitchen, there is access to a separate utility room which provides space for appliances and additional storage.
Off the utility room is a useful ground floor cloakroom, as well as internal access into the double garage, adding to the everyday convenience of the layout.
To the first floor, there are four bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en suite shower room.
The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and flexible in use, suitable for family accommodation, guests or home working, and are served by a family bathroom.
Outside The property occupies a generous corner plot with wrap-around gardens that provide a good degree of privacy and flexibility for outdoor use.
The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature hedging, creating a pleasant and established setting.
With a south-westerly orientation, the garden enjoys good levels of sunlight throughout the day and offers ample scope for further landscaping, planting or the creation of additional seating areas to suit individual preferences.
To the front of the property is a paved driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles and access to the double garage.
The garage benefits from electric up-and-over doors and also offers internal access from the house, adding to the overall practicality of the home.
The combination of driveway parking, garage space and wrap-around gardens makes the property particularly well suited to family living, while the quiet private road setting enhances the sense of privacy and appeal.
