Plowman Close, Sturminster Newton

The Property
Inside
A useful entrance porch opens into a good sized reception hall, which creates a welcoming first impression and gives access to the principal ground floor rooms, with stairs rising to the first floor. The sitting room is a particularly generous reception room and leads directly through to the conservatory, creating a lovely sense of space and an easy flow through the ground floor. The conservatory overlooks the rear garden and has double doors opening outside. There is a separate dining room to the front of the property, while the kitchen is positioned to the rear with an outlook over the garden and a door opening outside. It is fitted with a range of Shaker style cupboards and laminate work surfaces, with space for appliances and scope for some updating. Also on the ground floor is a well proportioned double bedroom together with the shower room. On the first floor are two further double bedrooms and a separate WC. The main bedroom is especially impressive in size, extending across much of the rear of the property and enjoying views over the garden. It also benefits from built in storage. Bedroom three is another good sized double, again with built in storage, and has attractive timber wall paneling which gives the room additional character.
Outside
The property is approached over a driveway providing ample off road parking and leading to the garage. The front garden is attractively laid out with gravel areas with roses planted, giving the property a welcoming and well cared for appearance. A pathway leads to the front entrance and useful porch. The rear garden is a particularly lovely feature of the property and has clearly been much loved and carefully tended by the current owners during their many years at the home. Mainly west facing, it enjoys a good degree of privacy and is enclosed. A generous paved patio adjoins the house, creating an attractive area from which to enjoy the garden, with colourful pots and established planting adding plenty of charm and interest. Beyond the patio, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn and is complemented by a variety of mature trees, shrubs and well stocked borders which give the space a wonderfully established feel. There are further areas of planting throughout the garden, with an abundance of colour and greenery creating a very pretty backdrop. The mature planting also helps give the garden its private and peaceful character, while the lawn provides a lovely open aspect. A greenhouse and garden shed are positioned within the garden, adding to its traditional appeal and practicality. Altogether, it is a generous, established and very inviting outside space which reflects the care and attention given to the property over the last forty years.
