The Property
This 17th-century freehold property, located in the heart of Dorchester County Town, offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern convenience. Formerly operating as a Bed & Breakfast, the house provides spacious accommodation across three floors, featuring six bedrooms, three of which include en-suite facilities.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall leading to a dining/family room with a gas fireplace and a sitting room showcasing a large Inglenook fireplace and exposed beams. The kitchen is equipped with a Rangemaster cooker, integrated dishwasher, and pantry space, complemented by a utility room and a downstairs WC.

On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, two with en-suite shower rooms, and a separate shower room. The second floor houses two additional bedrooms, including the principal suite with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, built-in wardrobes, and an en-suite bathroom with both a bath and shower.

Externally, the property features a secluded courtyard garden with a pergola and a raised patio area adorned with flower borders.
This lower garden then rises up a paved set of steps to a magical split level walled garden that is full of established planting.
A summer house with full electric supply as well as lighting around the large garden.
A freehold Garage and space in front of it are conveniently located nearby on Durngate Street, which are included in the sale.

Situated within walking distance of Dorchester’s town centre, Dorset County Hospital, and train stations with links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, the property is ideally located. The area offers excellent amenities, including schools, shopping, dining, cinemas, and recreational facilities.

With mains utilities connected and a Council Tax Band of E, this property presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a character-filled family home or business potential in a prime location.

Property Description Disclaimer

This is a general description of the property only, and is not intended to constitute part of an offer or contract. It has been verified by the seller(s), unless marked as 'draft'. Purplebricks conducts some valuations online and some of our customers prepare their own property descriptions, so if you decide to proceed with a viewing or an offer, please note this information may have been provided solely by the vendor, and we may not have been able to visit the property to confirm it. If you require clarification on any point then please contact us, especially if you’re traveling some distance to view. All information should be checked by your solicitor prior to exchange of contracts.

Successful buyers will be required to complete anti-money laundering and proof of funds checks. Our partner, Lifetime Legal Limited, will carry out the initial checks on our behalf. The current non-refundable cost is £80 inc. VAT per offer. You’ll need to pay this to Lifetime Legal and complete all checks before we can issue a memorandum of sale. The cost includes obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required, and includes a range of benefits. Purplebricks will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in providing these checks.
