A very attractive well appointed and spacious detached village house with delightful south-facing gardens in a lovely setting close to open countryside. EPC: E

The Property

A very attractive, detached house with delightful gardens, principally facing south, in a lovely setting within the village of Drimpton. It was built by the well known and respected Dorset developers, Morrish, in 2004, having brick faced elevations. Under the current ownership since 2021 it has been subject to extensive improvement and the building of a large single storey extension, to create a wonderful kitchen/dining/family room with utility area.

The excellent specification includes a very efficient Wiser Smart heating system, uPVC sealed unit windows plus aluminium powder-coated bi-folding doors to the kitchen, security alarm system, well equipped quality kitchen with Bosch electric double oven, Whirlpool whole zoned induction hob, Bosch stainless steel cooker hood and integrated dishwasher, LED and concealed lighting to the kitchen, upgraded family bathroom and en-suite shower room, water softener, brick fireplace with wood burner to the living room, Karndean style flooring to the hall and kitchen/dining/family room and built-in wardrobes to the principal bedroom.

The accommodation is very spacious, well presented and well appointed. On the ground floor there is a reception hall with cloakroom off, a very large ‘L’ shaped living room enjoying a triple aspect overlooking the gardens with a pair of French outside doors, study or bedroom 5, impressive kitchen/dining/family room with utility and bi-folding doors to the side terrace and utility area. On the first floor there is a good-sized airing cupboard off the landing, large principal bedroom with en-suite shower room (featuring extra large shower and a pair of chrome heated towel rails), three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The property also benefits from a large gated driveway/parking area and integral garage (easily converted to provide additional accommodation if required). The lovely sunny gardens are a further feature, enjoying a pretty streamside setting.

Outside

A five bar gate leads onto an extensive brick paved driveway with parking for four or more cars and access to an integral single garage.

The lovely gardens comprise four zoned areas and enjoy a sunny east, south and west-facing aspect. Adjoining the house on the south and west side is Indian sandstone paving plus lawn and flower and shrub borders. By the parking area is a small vegetable patch. A decorative rose covered archway with post and rail fencing leads down some steps to a lower lawn, which adjoins the stream and includes raised vegetable beds.

Situation

The property is very pleasantly situated close to open countryside within the popular village of Drimpton. The village has much to offer residents of all ages, with an active and friendly community and a wide range of amenities/clubs/organisations including a public house and village hall, surrounded by beautiful countryside within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb).
