Description
A four bedroom house in a lovely rural location on a quiet lane with wonderful far-reaching views and garden and grounds of one acre.
The Dwelling - High Meadow is a detached house believed to have been built in 1986 of brick elevations set in a large plot of one acre with lovely views to both front and rear. The internal accommodation flows very well with the principal reception room being 24' x 21' ft, triple aspect and opening to a large terrace to the south. There is excellent utility space and ground floor shower room and on the first floor all bedrooms are doubles with the master bedroom having an ensuite shower room. An incoming buyer has the scope, subject to any necessary consents, to re-model the kitchen / utility area and perhaps convert the garage. A garden room or orangery would be a superb addition on the southern elevation.
Accommodation - See floor plan but in brief:
Ground floor - Hall, sitting / family room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, cloakroom
First floor - Four bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms (1e/s)
Outside - The property is approached from the lane via wooden five-bar gates on to a drive with ample parking for a number of cars. There is a large double garage with an electric up and over door and workshop space and loft storage above. The front garden is open and laid to lawn with laurel boundary hedging and has lovely views over Fontmell Down and the surrounding hills. There is a large terrace on the southern side of the house accessed from the sitting room with the main garden being to the west of the house at the rear and also having wonderful views over the adjoining fields and countryside. A pair of wooden five-bar gates on the northern side give vehicular access to the rear. Externally, the property has recently undergone a programme of landscaping including a new drive, new gates and planting.
Situation - Bedchester is a small rural hamlet situated amongst lovely rolling countryside between the market towns of Shaftesbury and Blandford. The village of Fontmell Magna is nearby and has everyday facilities including an excellent Post Office/Store, primary school, surgery, pub and church.
