The Property

Turnpike Lane is a quiet and attractive residential cul-de-sac in the popular village of Blandford St Mary, located immediately south of Blandford Forum. The lane is entirely residential and forms part of a thoughtfully planned and award winning development. The lane enjoys a private and peaceful feel and is particularly popular with families and professional households. Despite its tucked away position, the location is highly convenient and within walking distance of the town centre and a wide range of shops, schools and amenities.

The property itself is a well proportioned three-bedroom house, ideally suited to modern living. The accommodation includes a large reception room and a spacious kitchen/dining room, utility room and downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with ensuite shower room, and a family bathroom. Further benefits include a garage and additional off road parking.

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by an inviting entrance hall, creating an immediate sense of space and light. The hallway provides access to the principle rooms and a downstairs cloakroom with stairs rising to the first floor. The highly attractive kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of cream painted shaker style wall and base units with wooden worktops, inset stainless steel sink with mixer tap and integrated appliances including a gas hob with extractor hood above, electric double oven, fridge/freezer and space for a dishwasher. The dining area is bright and spacious with a wood effect floor, making it the perfect dinner party location with ample room for a dining table and chairs. This conveniently flows into a utility room benefitting from access to the rear garden, as well as a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, wall mounted gas boiler and space and plumbing undercounter for a washing machine. The charming sitting room enjoys an attractive outlook over the garden with a door opening directly onto the patio and two side full height windows. The focal point to the room is a feature open fireplace with brick surround and adjacent log storage alcove.

The first floor offers a generously sized landing with a large sash window, capable of accommodating a desk for home working, leading to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a nicely presented family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from a double built-in wardrobe with shelving above and is coupled with an ensuite shower room. Bedroom two also has a built-in wardrobe and is situated to the rear of the property enjoying a pleasant view over the garden, while bedroom three has a wooden floor and overlooks the front.

Outside

The enclosed and private rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for low maintenance and enjoyment, featuring extensive patio areas ideal for outdoor entertaining. Three separate sets of steps lead directly from the house, creating a seamless "live in, live out" feel between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Steps lead down to a lower patio / off-street parking space, accessed via timber double doors off the communal rear driveway. A convenient personal door gives access to the single garage which benefits from an up and over door, light and power with potential to convert the generous loft space for storage.
