AN IMPRESSIVE DETACHED EXECUTIVE HOME VERY NICELY SITUATED IN A QUIET LOCATION ON THE EDGE OF THE VILLAGE.

Built just over 20 years ago and owned by our clients from new. Meticulously maintained and beautifully presented, the accommodation extends to about 2,200 sq/ft and comprises a large sitting room with open fireplace and a dining room both overlooking the gardens, a study and a well fitted kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the garden. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor and upstairs there are 4 good double bedrooms and 2 bath/shower rooms. The main bedroom and ensuite shower room are particularly impressive. The house is attractively presented throughout, and the generous accommodation and ease of maintenance make this a perfect practical family home, in a great location convenient for commuting and all the local schools.

Set well back from the main road in a private cul-de-sac, electric gates open onto a large paved courtyard in front of the house which provides plenty of parking and access to the detached double garage. The larger part of the garden is behind the house and is south facing. Immediately behind the house there is a wide paved terrace and beyond that a well kept lawn with simple borders on either side. In the corner of the garden there is a pretty summer house/garden store and tall hedges on three sides mean the garden can be enjoyed with a high degree of privacy.

Charlton Marshall is a very popular village on the banks of the River Stour a few miles south of Blandford Forum. The village has a thriving community with a pub (The Charlton Arms) and a busy village hall. For everyday shops and services, it is only a 5 minute drive or bus ride into Blandford with its historic Georgian market square and excellent range of amenities including an M&S food hall, Tesco and Lidl superstores. Communication links are also good, and Charlton Marshall is only a short drive north of the Ferndown/Poole/Bournemouth/Christchurch conurbation making the village hugely convenient for people who work in that area. Commuting is very straight forward and easy access onto the A31 provides a quick link to the M27 for Southampton and Portsmouth, and the M3 up to London.

The village is surrounded by lovely countryside much of which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). A brisk walk will take you onto the Dorset Trailway or down along the river and on to Cranborne Chase, and there are good opportunities for sport and recreation in the area with plenty of golf courses and other sports clubs and facilities in and around Blandford and Poole. For walking and water sports the south coast is less than half an hour’s drive away at Poole Harbour, Studland Bay and along the famous Jurassic Coast. The area is also well served with schools at all levels, and as well as primary schools nearby in Spetisbury and Blandford St Mary, and state secondary schools in Blandford Forum and Wimborne, there are grammar schools in Poole and Parkstone. Private schools in the area include Bryanston, Milton Abbey, Canford and Clayesmore, as well as Castle Court, Dumpton and Knighton House prep schools.

All mains services are available at the property. Gas fired radiator central heating.
