4 bed detached house for sale

Aspen Road, Dorchester DT2

Situated in a peaceful, elevated position on the edge of Charlton Down, enjoying a rural outlook, is this impressive four‐bedroom detached home. This immaculate property offers generous accommodation, a beautifully landscaped garden, a gated driveway and a detached double garage. With a fully integrated green energy system designed to keep running costs low, this modern family home delivers a rare EPC 'A' rating!

A wide entrance hall with smart flooring and useful understairs storage sets the tone for the space and light found throughout. To the front is a dedicated study, ideal for home working, and a cloakroom completes the practicalities of the ground floor.

The heart of the home is the superb open‐plan living–dining–kitchen, redesigned from the original layout to create a wonderfully sociable and contemporary space which extends the full width of the house. The hallway opens into a casual living area, which sits centrally, and has double doors which open onto the patio. The sitting and dining areas extend the full depth of the property on one side, offering wonderfully versatile spaces and a double aspect for fantastic light.

The kitchen is fitted with ample cupboards and drawers, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances including a double oven, induction hob with extractor, dishwasher and fridge‐freezer. A breakfast bar denotes a clever break between the spaces and offers further undercounter storage and worktop preparation space. There is a further small counter for laundry with space for a washing machine, adjacent to which is the back door to the gated driveway.

Upstairs, the galleried landing gives access to four well-proportioned double bedrooms, an airing cupboard, and a ceiling hatch for loft access. To the front aspect, the master bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes with matching bedside tables and drawer units, and a private en‐suite shower room. Bedroom three is also situated at the front and has a fitted wardrobe. Bedrooms two and four both overlook the rear garden with far-reaching rural views, and bedroom two also benefits from a fitted wardrobe. The family bathroom has been tastefully updated and comprises a panelled bath, a separate shower, and fitted cabinets integrating the basin and toilet.

The front garden is attractively planted with established shrubs, setting the house back from the street. To the side, there is a generous gated driveway with an EV charge point and parking for two vehicles, leading to a double garage which benefits from power, light and an up-and-over door.

The enclosed rear garden is unoverlooked and enjoys a peaceful rural aspect. It has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of inviting spaces: A patio for alfresco dining with steps descending to a lawn with mature borders featuring trees and shrubs, and a secluded seating area currently used for a hot tub.

Just steps away from public footpaths into rural walks and within easy walking distance of the village shop and the excellent amenities Charlton Down provides, this property combines modern convenience with a welcoming village setting.

Charlton Down is a thriving village approximately four miles north of Dorchester, offering a well‐stocked shop, gym, splendid village hall, cricket pitch, tennis courts and excellent walking opportunities across the surrounding countryside. Dorchester provides a wide range of amenities, including mainline rail links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, Dorset County Hospital, leisure facilities, restaurants and highly regarded schools.​
