4 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

Presented to the market is this fabulous detached chalet style home offering around 2500 square feet (228 sq. m) of flexible accommodation with three/four double bedrooms and lying in grounds extending to around three quarters of an acre. The property enjoys a lane side position, in a rural but not isolated location and boasts some beautiful views over the surrounding countryside. The property is situated in the small elevated hamlet of Broad Oak which has access to some beautiful countryside walks and is just a mile from the town centre of Sturminster Newton. The town caters well for everyday needs with a range of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries, schooling for all ages and a variety of entertainment venues. The property has been the very much cherished and enjoyed home to our sellers for the last few years, during this time they have lovingly improved the interior, which has transformed it into a bright and welcoming home that satisfies contemporary taste. All the flooring has been replaced by carpets or ceramic wood effect tile in a herringbone pattern, redecorated throughout and a new hot water cylinder fitted as well as some external landscaping. The property also benefits from gas fired central heating (the boiler is about eight years old) and has uPVC double glazing throughout. This wonderful home has to be viewed to fully appreciate how it will satisfy many potential buyers' needs as well as the great location.
