A development opportunity to refurbish the existing four-bedroom property and build a detached house at the rear, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.
The Property
This site presents a development opportunity, offering the potential to refurbish the existing property and construct a new building at the rear, to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.
The detached property features brick elevations under a tiled roof with UPVC double-glazed replacement windows. It has gas-fired central heating and offers an adaptable ground-floor layout, which could potentially include an annex for an independent or dependent relative.
The accommodation includes a bright entrance hall, where stairs lead to the first floor. The sitting room, featuring an open stone fireplace, connects to the dining room, which in turn leads a utility/second kitchen with base and wall cupboards, an integrated gas hob, and a gas-fired boiler.
On the ground floor, there is also a double bedroom, a bathroom, and the kitchen which is equipped with a range of base and wall cupboards, a tiled floor, and a door that opens to a long conservatory/lean-to. From here, a door leads to the study, which can also serve as a fourth bedroom, and another conservatory.
The first floor comprises two double bedrooms and a second bathroom.
Outside
The property has developmental potential, with detailed plans for a detached dwelling in the rear garden of the existing property. It currently features a triple garage, spacious front and rear gardens, and a driveway.
Situation
Winterbourne Abbas is about 5 miles west of Dorchester and has a primary school, St Mary’s parish church, petrol station with village shop and public house.
Dorchester has a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities, the County Hospital and rail stations to London/ Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads.
The Heritage coastline is nearby with the picturesque village of Abbotsbury being about 5 miles away. The A35 gives good access to the west as well as Poole and Bournemouth to the east.
