3 bed property for sale

Westfield, Glue Hill, Sturminster Newton DT10

This well-appointed Semi-detached home is located within the curtilage of Sturminster Newton. The property itself has been extended in recent years to offer a roomy kitchen/diner; this cosy feeling home offers a wood burning stove in the sitting room, a large garden in the rear with a pleasant front garden.

Description:

A superb opportunity to acquire a well-maintained family home offering significant potential for further development (STPP), positioned in a highly sought-after location with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. The property is offered to the market in good condition throughout and benefits from a complete onward chain. Previously granted (now lapsed) planning permission allowed for a substantial two-storey side extension, which would have almost doubled the existing footprint, highlighting the scope available.

The accommodation comprises a living room with woodburner, open-plan kitchen/dining room with bifold doors onto the rear garden patio, ground-floor W.C., three double bedrooms, and a family bathroom.

Set within a generous plot, the property enjoys front and rear gardens, a side driveway, and ample parking provision. To the front, the elevated garden is predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by mature hedging, providing a good degree of privacy. A driveway runs along the side of the property to a gravelled parking area with space for at least two vehicles. Beyond this, to the rear of the plot, is an additional hardstanding suitable for further parking or potential garaging.

To the rear of the house is a concrete patio area, ideal for outdoor seating, which leads onto a spacious rear garden mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by a dense hedge, creating a private and peaceful outdoor space.
