This charming period terraced home offers all the warmth and character expected of the Bridport Road conservation area, and is just a short walk into the centre of Dorchester. Offering space larger than is typically found in similar homes, it provides a flexible layout well suited to modern living while retaining its distinctive period appeal.
The property is well set back from the street by a landscaped front garden through which a pathway leads to the front door. Stepping inside through the entrance porch, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the home—inviting, well proportioned, and brimming with historic charm.
The front living room enjoys the bright, airy feel typical of period homes of this era, with generous window space drawing in natural light throughout the day. It serves as a comfortable and versatile space for everyday relaxation, enhanced by a feature fireplace and inset log burning stove.
From here, the flow leads naturally into the central dining room, a wonderfully adaptable space which leads on again into an office that can serve as an additional reception room, featuring glass sliding doors to the rear garden.
The three reception rooms have previously been open-plan, a layout that could be easily reinstated by removing the partition walls.
At the rear, the kitchen is accessed from the hallway and benefits from pleasant natural light and a view toward the garden. It offers a range of base and wall-mounted cabinets, a stainless sink with drainer, an integrated eye-level double, an inset gas hob beneath a concealed extractor hood, space for white goods, and a useful breakfast bar. A back door leads onto the rear patio and back garden.
Upstairs, the property accommodates four bedrooms over two floors. The three bedrooms on the first floor are all light, with bedrooms one and two both being generously sized doubles featuring built-in wardrobes, and bedroom three a small single. There is also a shower room with toilet and basin, a separate toilet and basin, and a large airing cupboard. On the top floor, there's a spacious yet cosy loft bedroom featuring eaves storage.
Outside to the rear there is a large patio, with steps up to a well-maintained garden which is mostly laid to lawn and features a useful wooden shelter, beyond which is a substantial garden shed/workshop.
