2 bed detached bungalow for sale

South Drive, Cattistock, Dorchester DT2

A two-bedroom detached bungalow with loft room, recently redecorated and tucked away in a quiet village setting, backing onto open fields, with garden, driveway and garage.

The Property

Situated close to the heart of the village, this two-bedroom detached bungalow has been recently redecorated and offers well-balanced, versatile accommodation with the added benefit of a useful loft room.

The property is approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to a detached garage. Inside, the accommodation flows neatly from a central hallway, leading to a generous sitting room with a pleasant outlook over the garden, and a well-appointed kitchen which has a range of floor and wall mounted units. There are two comfortable ground floor bedrooms, both well-proportioned, along with a family bathroom.

A staircase rises to a spacious loft room, offering excellent flexibility as a home office, hobby space, or potential third bedroom, subject to individual needs and relevant regulations.

Outside

The bungalow enjoys a particularly attractive setting, backing onto open fields and providing a sense of privacy and tranquillity. The garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a patio abutting the rear of the bungalow, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Well-stocked flower borders, along with mature shrubs and trees, add colour, structure, and a pleasing sense of enclosure.

Situation

The bungalow lies within both a Conservation Area and a designated National Landscape (formerly known as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). Cattistock is a village of considerable character, offering a village store/post office, children’s playground, a notable Victorian parish church, and a well-regarded public house, The Fox and Hounds.

Local facilities can be found in Maiden Newton, approximately 1.5 miles away, including a range of shops, a petrol station, primary school, doctor’s surgery, and a railway station on the Dorchester-Yeovil to Bristol line. This is one of the few villages in the area to provide such a broad selection of everyday amenities, along with a public house and restaurant.

The surrounding countryside is particularly attractive, with gently rolling landscapes interspersed with an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways, providing access to many areas of notable natural beauty.

The area offers a good range of educational options in both the state and independent sectors, with primary and secondary schooling available within a reasonable distance.
