Owner says, ''It's a lovely peaceful setting with beautiful views, and very convenient for Shaftesbury''.
College Arms Close is a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Stour Row. This pretty North Dorset village is situated in the beautiful Blackmore Vale, three miles southwest of the ancient hill town of Shaftesbury.
The bungalow is set on a spacious plot and has a generously sized garden with beautiful views. Enter the bungalow into a spacious HALLWAY, from which all rooms are accessible. The SITTING ROOM at the front of the property is a generous, light-filled space that was previously open to the adjacent dining room. Reopening it by removing the partition wall should be straightforward if required. The modern and bright KITCHEN at the back of the property offers lovely garden views and features ample storage, an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher, eye-level electric oven, and electric hob. The kitchen opens to the DINING ROOM and leads to a very useful UTILITY ROOM, which provides additional storage, space and plumbing for a washing machine, along with access to the garden.
All the bedrooms are accessed from the hallway, including the PRINCIPAL DOUBLE BEDROOM, which features built-in wardrobes. BEDROOM TWO and BEDROOM THREE are both smaller double bedrooms, perfect for guests, teenagers or smaller children. The bright FAMILY BATHROOM has a modern white suite, including a bath with a shower over it, a wash hand basin with a built-in vanity cupboard, and a W.C.
Stairs rise to the first floor, leading to a small landing area and a spacious loft that the owner currently uses as a home office. On the other side of the landing, a door accesses an additional large loft area, ideal for storage.
Several properties in College Arms Close have been extended, and there may be an opportunity to do so here, subject to the appropriate permissions.
To the front of the property is a lawned front garden, a driveway offering ample parking, a carport, and a GARAGE. The rear garden is a great size, ideal for entertaining, gardening, and growing vegetables. There is a patio area directly outside the house, a large lawn area with a storage shed, a pergola, and access to the garage. A gated area leads to an additional garden space, currently left wild, which could be used for vegetables, further storage, or as a great location for a home office or studio.
Stour Row has a great community and an active village hall that hosts various events throughout the year, such as the "Stroll Inn Pop-Up Pub and BBQ." The surrounding countryside is beautiful and includes Duncliffe Hill, home to the Woodland Trust's Duncliffe Wood, one of the oldest and largest woods in North Dorset, known for its magnificent bluebell display. The award-winning Udder Farm Shop, with its restaurant, café, and bar, is less than two miles down the road.
Nearby Shaftesbury is renowned for its community spirit, independent shops, charming cafes, regular markets, and pubs. Other amenities include a vibrant arts centre, cinema, supermarkets, a cottage hospital, and a post office. Shaftesbury is also famed for the iconic cobbled street of Gold Hill. In nearby Gillingham there is a Waitrose and a number of other shops and amenities.
Local road connections are excellent providing access to Bath to the East, Gillingham, Salisbury, Sherborne, and Warminster. A303 links with the M3 provide access to London approx. 11 miles. Railway stations at Gillingham (4.5 miles) and Tisbury (11.8 miles) provide mainline services to London (Waterloo).
