House For Sale £700,000
A most beautifully and immaculately presented detached family home with four double bedrooms, offering contemporary living space and situated in a private road of just twelve other properties. The property is located in the well served and popular Dorset village of Marnhull, which boasts a doctor's surgery with pharmacy, two stores, one with post office, two primary schools and three churches. In addition, there is the village hall and recreational grounds and public houses. Further facilities are a short drive away in Sturminster Newton and Shaftesbury. The property was completed four years ago by a highly respected local construction company, traditionally built of local natural stone and finished to an exemplary standard using high quality fixtures and fitting, which include soft closing kitchen units from Harts of Stur and Whirlpool integrated appliances plus bathroom suites from Burlington. This fabulous home provides spacious and bright accommodation with a flowing and easy to use layout that will certainly satisfy many potential buyers' needs. The property benefits from sustainable wood framed double glazing, gas fired central heating with underfloor heating on the ground floor and the remaining six years of the Premier Build Warranty. There is an annual service fee for the upkeep of the close, which is set by the owners of the properties who become directors of the management company on completion of their purchase. This wonderful home must be viewed to really appreciate - not just the stone and mortar - but also for the feel and atmosphere that it offers, as well as the location within the village.
