Summary - Broadmayne, DT2 DT2 8EB
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious five-bedroom thatched home with large garden and annexe potential in Broadmayne.
Grade II listed thatched house, dating from c.1600
A rare Grade II listed thatched house in the heart of Broadmayne, this substantial five-bedroom home blends historic character with flexible family living. Exposed beams, flagstone and original parquet floors give warmth and authenticity throughout, while generous reception rooms and a large kitchen/breakfast space provide comfortable everyday living and entertaining zones.
Set on about a quarter of an acre, the south/west-facing garden is level and lawned with mature borders, fruit trees and a stone patio that extends the living space in fine weather. At the far end sits a large stone outbuilding with power and light and historic planning permission for conversion into a one‑bedroom annexe — a clear opportunity for guest accommodation, home office or rental income subject to listed‑building and planning constraints.
Practical advantages include off‑street gravel parking, a stone garage, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and low local crime in a prosperous village setting with a well‑regarded primary school and easy access to Dorchester and the Jurassic Coast. The house’s size and layout suit multigenerational families, those wanting separate living areas, or buyers seeking a character home with scope to adapt.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listing preserves historic features but will complicate alterations and repairs; buyers should factor specialist conservation advice and potential higher maintenance costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Viewing is recommended for those who value period character and are comfortable managing listed‑building responsibilities.
