Set in a quiet cul‑de‑sac close to Blandford Forum’s Georgian centre, this three‑bed semi offers practical family accommodation with a private garden, driveway and detached garage. The ground floor flows from a bay‑front sitting room into a kitchen/dining area with French doors onto a paved patio — a layout suited to everyday family life and small‑scale entertaining. Local schools, shops and riverside walks are all within easy reach.
The house is compact at about 608 sq ft, so it will suit buyers seeking a manageable family home or a first‑time purchase rather than someone needing large living spaces. There is a single shower room for three bedrooms, which may be restrictive for larger families. The property dates from the late 1990s and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators.
There is scope to extend subject to planning permission, offering potential to increase living space and long‑term value, subject to local approvals. The plot is a decent size with a graveled driveway, separate garage and additional seating area beyond the garage, giving useful outdoor options. Buyers should note council tax band D and that details in the listing await seller verification.
Overall this freehold semi is a well‑located, move‑in ready option for families or first‑time buyers who value proximity to schools, good local amenities and outdoor routes. It also offers straightforward renovation or extension potential for those wanting to add space.
