Nestled in the sought-after village of Askerswell, this beautiful detached home enjoys an enviable position with breathtaking views both to the front and rear. Just over four miles from Bridport and approximately ten miles from Dorchester, the property also benefits from being only a ten-minute drive to the ever-popular beach at West Bay, offering the perfect balance of countryside living and coastal convenience.
The property's standout feature is undoubtedly its exceptional outlook. To the rear, the south facing garden rises gently towards the village church, creating a picturesque and peaceful backdrop, while to the front, far-reaching views extend across the village and surrounding fields.
The ground floor offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation, comprising a welcoming porch, entrance hall, downstairs W/C, and a spacious front-facing living room filled with natural light. The modern kitchen is complemented by an adjoining utility room, alongside a separate dining room ideal for entertaining. A conservatory provides additional living space and direct access to the rear garden. Completing the ground floor is a large double garage with the added benefit of roof storage.
Upstairs, the split-level layout adds character and practicality. The primary bedroom with en-suite and a single bedroom occupy one level, while a further generous double bedroom, a single (currently used as a home office) and a family bathroom are situated on the other.
Externally, the property truly excels. In a plot of almost half an acre, the expansive rear south facing garden is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully arranged into three distinct sections: a patio seating area perfect for outdoor dining, a generous main lawn, and a secluded upper garden-ideal for vegetables, planting, or composting. Additional features include a summerhouse (with power & lighting), greenhouse, garden shed, and a further storage shed to the side of the property.
Approached via a private driveway serving just three properties, the home also benefits from a front lawn and planted area within its ownership, enhancing both privacy and kerb appeal.
This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a charming home in a desirable village setting, offering space, views, and a wonderful lifestyle.
Askerswell is a small village and civil parish in an area of Dorset considered an area of natural beauty. The village sited on the small River Asker benefits from a Church, Pub and a Village Hall with a full programme.
