This 2-bedroom semi-detached home in St. James, Beaminster, offers a compact, practical layout ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into the area. Ground floor sits comfortably for everyday living and entertaining, while the kitchen provides space for a small dining table and direct access to the garden. Two double bedrooms upstairs make efficient use of the 654 sq ft footprint.
Outside, a patio leads down to a small lawn and gravel area — an easy-to-manage garden for alfresco meals or pot plants. Two tandem off-street parking spaces run alongside the house, convenient for one or two cars but requiring sequential parking. The property is freehold, fitted with mains gas central heating, and benefits from double glazing installed post-2002.
The house is structurally typical of late-1980s build and sits in a very low-crime, generally affluent neighbourhood close to local shops, schools and links. The home is habitable as-is but shows signs of 1980s fittings and some areas (living room joinery and general finishes) would benefit from cosmetic modernisation to maximise comfort and value. No flood risk is recorded.
For a buyer seeking a straightforward, well-located starter home with outdoor space and parking, this property presents good value. Be aware the plot is small and the tandem parking arrangement limits easy vehicle manoeuvring; buyers wanting larger gardens or garage parking should factor that in.
