Link-detached three bedroom village house in good order throughout with lovely far-reaching views over the Bride Valley to the south.
The Property - 8 Garden Close was built in 1979 by the renowned Poundbury builder CG Fry and has in recent years undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment, renewal and enlargement bringing it firmly into the 21st-century. What however makes this house so special is its position. It lies on the north side of the Bride Valley with wonderful views over the valley and Abbotsbury hillfort to the south which can be enjoyed from all the principal rooms. Add a thrifty biomass boiler and solar water heating and you have a warm contemporary house that is economical to run.
Other notable features of the property include an attractive fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove, a beautifully crafted kitchen/living/dining room with double doors onto the terrace to one end and a fitted kitchen to the other, engineered oak floors through much of the ground floor and contemporary UPVC double glazing all adding to the warmth and economy of the property.
