Edge of village
Set on the fringe of the ever-popular village of Fontmell Magna, this attractive three-bedroom thatched home combines classic charm with practical, modern living.
Positioned within the desirable cul-de-sac of St Andrews View, a thoughtfully designed development dating from the late 1990s, the property enjoys a delightful setting while remaining part of a friendly and established community.
Inside, the accommodation is well arranged and naturally light. The kitchen/breakfast room forms a sociable hub of the home, offering ample space for day-to-day living, while the separate sitting room provides a cosy retreat, centred around an open fire, perfect for cosy evenings. A separate dining room provides an ideal space for entertaining or family gatherings, and a ground floor cloakroom adds everyday convenience.
Upstairs, there are three comfortable bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom with its own en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom, making the layout well suited to families, downsizers or those seeking a peaceful village base.
