A solid, traditional semi-detached home in central Dorchester with substantial scope for improvement and uplift. The house offers three double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a large rear garden that provides privacy and a leafy outlook — an attractive canvas for a growing family or a project buyer.
The property requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic updating, kitchen and bathroom replacement and general refurbishment will be needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. Heating is via a mains-gas boiler and radiators and the windows are double glazed (installation date unknown). Services are connected and ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and modern connectivity.
Practical benefits include potential for off-street parking subject to planning (STPP), convenient side access to a decent-sized, mature rear garden, and proximity to Dorchester town centre (approximately ½ mile) with shops, restaurants, rail links and several well-regarded schools nearby. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure add to the practical appeal.
This property suits buyers wanting to create a personalised family home or investors seeking a refurbishment opportunity in an affluent, low-crime area. Be prepared for an all-over renovation project; the value lies in the location, room sizes and garden rather than move-in readiness.
