The Property
Charlton Down was established as a new village in 1997, when three late Victorian hospital buildings were sympathetically converted into apartments, now known as Redwood House, Greenwood House and Herrison House.
This apartment is beautifully presented and maintained in excellent condition throughout. Large windows and high ceilings enhance the sense of space and light, while the entrance hall benefits from two windows allowing plenty of natural light to flow through.
The sitting room is a well-proportioned room with two windows that enjoy sunlight for much of the day. The kitchen is located just off the sitting room and features fitted units, a breakfast bar for casual dining, and an integrated oven with electric hob. There is also space for a tall fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.
The property offers two spacious double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from built-in wardrobes. Both rooms are tastefully decorated. The contemporary family bathroom is fitted with a white suite, including a p-shaped bath with shower over.
Outside
Ample residents’ parking is available, along with a discreet refuse storage area. The property is set within large, well-maintained landscaped grounds featuring a variety of mature trees and benches, providing pleasant spots to sit and enjoy the surroundings.
Situation
Set approximately four miles north of Dorchester, Charlton Down is a peaceful village nestled in open countryside. The village itself is a quiet cul-de-sac, free from through traffic, and offers a strong sense of community with a shop, a splendid village hall, a gym, cricket pitch, and tennis courts available for residents.
The County Town of Dorchester is close by, offering a wide range of amenities including shops, cafés, restaurants, and leisure facilities. Dorchester South and Dorchester West train stations provide direct services to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads. The town is also home to several highly regarded schools and the renowned Dorset County Hospital.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, Charlton Down is perfectly positioned with excellent footpaths and bridleways across the surrounding countryside.
