Spacious & Versatile Five-Bedroom Family Home with Annexe & further self contained apartment – Highly Sought-After Dorchester Location

Set on a generous plot in one of Dorchester’s most desirable residential areas, Culliford Road North, this detached five-bedroom chalet bungalow offers an abundance of space and flexibility - making it an ideal family home. With multiple living areas, self-contained accommodation options, and a large mature garden, this is a property designed to adapt as your family grows.

Perfectly positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street within walking distance of Sunninghill School and Dorchester town centre, the property balances convenience with a wonderful sense of privacy.

The main house is light and spacious, with a welcoming hallway that connects seamlessly to the adjoining annexe. The extended kitchen/diner/conservatory forms the true heart of the home — a bright, sociable space with integrated appliances and plenty of room for both everyday family meals and larger gatherings. French doors lead directly out to a patio area with access to the garden.

A comfortable sitting room with garden views, a handy utility room, and a downstairs W.C. add to the practicality, while upstairs you’ll find three generous double bedrooms, two with built in wardrobes, a family bathroom with roll-top bath, and a separate shower room - perfect for busy mornings.

The self-contained one-bedroom annexe is ideal for extended family, guests, or even an older child seeking independence. With its own kitchen, living room, conservatory, and private entrance (plus internal access), it offers both connection and privacy.

A further one-bedroom apartment adds even more flexibility, with a large bedroom, en suite, and open-plan living/kitchen area. Currently used as an Airbnb, this could easily be perfect for guests or an office space.

A generous lawn stretches across the rear, offering plenty of space for children to play or for the family to enjoy time outdoors together. Mature shrubs, trees, and colourful planting provide year-round interest while also creating a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion.

There are also patio areas perfect for entertaining, along with established borders and planting that give the garden both charm and character. The front of the property benefits from gated access, shingled areas, and further mature greenery, ensuring the home feels private and welcoming from the moment you arrive.

Close to Dorchester town centre, you’ll have independent shops, cafés, restaurants, and cultural attractions right on your doorstep. Excellent schools, two mainline train stations, and easy access to the Jurassic Coast make this home perfectly placed for families who want the best of both town convenience and coastal lifestyle.

This unique property combines family space, flexible living, and future potential — a rare opportunity in one of Dorchester’s most sought-after locations.
