Newton Gate, Sturminster Newton

A fabulous opportunity to purchase a spacious contemporary home offering around 1,900 square feet (177 sq. m) of internal space with four generously sized bedrooms and set in a small exclusive courtyard on the fringe of the market town of Sturminster Newton. The property is within a short walk to some delightful country and riverside walks as well as the town centre and all facilities. The town caters well for everyday needs with a selection of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries, schooling for all ages and a range of entertainment venues. The property is about twenty two years old and has been the much loved and enjoyed home of our sellers for the last four years. During their time of ownership the property has been exceedingly well maintained with a redecoration throughout, a useful awning has been fitted over the veranda, making it an all weather outdoor seating area and the garden has had some landscaping and planting. The lovely home benefits from double glazing and gas fired central heating and is beautifully presented. A viewing is absolutely essential to truly appreciate what lies beyond the front door with the flexible room usage and the well laid out accommodation. An early viewing is strongly suggested to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next lucky owner.
