Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
This very spacious detached bungalow has come to market for the first time in over 30 years. Situated along a no-through lane in a popular residential area, convenient for Beaminster School and just under half a mile from the centre of the town. The accommodation comprises entrance porch with inner door opening to the hallway with plenty of storage, three double bedrooms, a small shower room and family bathroom, a large L shaped living/dining room, which leads to a lovely garden room, the kitchen is accessed from both the hall and dining room and off the kitchen is a utility room, which has an external door to the rear garden. Windows are double glazed and there is gas central heating.
The property is set in a good sized mature garden with a block paved driveway leading to the rear where there is a large double garage. To the front of the bungalow, is an area of garden with a mature hedge providing privacy from the road. A further area of shrubbery and rockery forms an attractive frontage. Most of the garden lies at the back with a patio seating area, a lawn, a path leading to the garage and beyond where there is another patio. From here a meandering path leads amongst delightful planting of small trees and flowering shrubs as well as climbers. Right at the back of the garden is a small brook which forms the boundary and is much lower than the garden. There are steps at one end leading down to the brook.

Beaminster is a pretty little market town with a long history situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, equidistant from Crewkerne and Bridport (both being around 6 miles). Facilities in the town include a good range of shops, restaurants & cafes, a 15th Century church, post office, library, Primary and Secondary schools, health centres and dentist. In the summer, the Beaminster Festival offers visitors a range of music, literary and theatrical entertainments over a two week period, which brings many visitors to the town. Mainline rail services (London - Waterloo) are available from Crewkerne and Dorchester.

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: obtained from Ofcom on July 27, 2022

    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 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
