Description

Tucked away in the heart of this especially charming historic village, famed for the Cerne Giant sculpted into the chalk hillside, this light-filled bungalow provides an opportunity to be part of an unusually active and supportive community with a wide variety of facilities within the village.

The interior of the property has been arranged to give maximum light, ‘open-plan living’ with views from all the large picture windows over the attractive secluded garden unusual for the village. The front door leads into a large light reception room, currently being used at the ART ROOM, (originally the largest of the four bedrooms – easily reverted if required). Its generous size is indicative of what is to come.

BEDROOM TWO, has an ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM, with W.C., and wash-hand basin. The MAIN BATHROOM is fitted with a contemporary suite, providing a bath with adjacent separate large shower cubicle, vanity unit with wash-hand basin, and W.C. The advantage of single storey living is flexibility, and currently one of the bedrooms is used as a study.

To the far end of the property is the living accommodation. The ‘L’ shaped SITTING/DINING ROOM is a delightful space in which to relax and entertain. The CONSERVATORY creates additional space for enjoying views of the garden. The dining area extends the kitchen and has matching built-in storage units and space for a tall fridge/freezer. The newly fitted kitchen has Corian worktops, a range of base and wall units which has been designed to provide a peninsular bar separating the kitchen from the dining area.

A door from the kitchen leads to a smaller CONSERVATORY with plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. A rear door gives access to the garden.

Throughout the accommodation there are remote operated blinds, low energy radiators individually operated, or by app on 'phone, together with recently laid Karndean flooring, including both conservatories. Timber framed construction.

Outside
The garden wraps around the property and provides notable seclusion. Mainly laid to lawn, with a number of shrubberies and colourful planting to add visual interest. There is the advantage of a SINGLE GARAGE with up and over door, power and light, together with a timber garden shed and greenhouse. . Usefully, there are two garden taps, one at the front and one at the rear. There is now an attractive area of brick pavioring which can either be part of the garden or additional parking to the area adjacent to the shared drive. There is a custom-built mobility ramp to the property for easy access.

Location
The engaging village of Cerne Abbas, famous for the Cerne Giant – a chalk carving cut in the nearby hillside, has blossomed from being a small hamlet based around a Benedictine Abbey, to becoming a bustling and ever popular traditional village in the heart of Dorset. Situated comfortably between Dorchester and Sherborne the village offers a wide variety of amenities. These include a first school, a special, friendly ‘hub of the village’ shop of delicatessen standard, providing many locally produced foods. This is also a post office. There is a well-regarded surgery with pharmacy, cricket ground and unusually three pub restaurants all providing sit down middle of the day and evening dining, with the county town of Dorchester approximately 8 miles away and the historic abbey town of Sherborne 12 miles away.
