A beautifully appointed and extended bungalow with some of Dorset's finest views to the south and west.
A wide and spacious bungalow in a semi rural location, recently completely modernised and extended with a conservatory, taking in the spectacular views towards Bulbarrow Hill and the Dorset Gap.
The living areas all take in the extensive countryside views and can be all opened up to create one large living space giving the house much flexibility. However, the sitting room has a cosy wood burner as a central feature and the inner bi-fold doors can be closed to the newly created conservatory if needed. The south-west facing new conservatory has integral window and ceiling blinds and underfloor heating and bi-fold doors to the front garden, which itself sits above the quiet village lane, encapsulating those stunning views beyond.
A useful sun room is adjacent to the sitting room and has plumbing for washing machines with further space for a condensing dryer and is currently used as a utility room / drying room but equally has access to the side garden.
The kitchen is very well appointed with an integrated dishwasher and fridge / freezer, a built in Neff oven, grill and microwave. The central island has useful further cupboards and an induction hob with extractor above. There is a good area for a dining table to the front which adds to the depth to the kitchen / dining room area.
To the rear of the house are the two bedrooms. Along the inner hallway with airing cupboard. The principle bedroom has a wall of built in wardrobes, an en suite shower room and an easterly aspect to the level rear garden. Bedroom 2 also has a built in wardrobe. Lastly, the family bathroom has a wc, heated towel rail, wash hand basin and bath with shower over.
Situation
Kingston is one of several hamlets that make up the parish of Hazelbury Bryan, which is surrounded by breath-taking countryside that stretches towards Bulbarrow and the escarpment to the east. There are numerous paths and bridleways crisscrossing the countryside giving ample opportunity for walking and riding.
Hazelbury Bryan has a shop/post office, school, public house and village hall. Sturminster Newton, which is the nearest market town, offers a good range of shops, schools and other amenities. The larger towns of Dorchester, Sherborne and Yeovil are accessible as are the coastal resorts of Poole and Weymouth.
Directions
From Sturminster Newton, go over the bridge, turning right. At Glue Hill, turn eft towards Hazelbury bryan and continue until you get to the village. Take the right turn after Wheat Close and Greenacres will be found most of the way along on the right hand side before the bend into Kingston itself.
Outside
The gardens are level and mainly laid to lawn for ease but carry much content for the ever changing seasons. The gardens are enclosed on all sides, giving privacy and security.
At the rear of the driveway is a single garage with up and over doors, a personal door to the garden, a large basin and sideboard and, intriguingly, a gardeners wc.
The driveway will cater for 3 or more cars behind the five bar gate onto the village lane.
Services
Mains water and electricity and drainage are connected to the property. Oil fired central heating system.
