This single-storey detached bungalow offers practical, single-level living close to Dorchester town centre. Two double bedrooms, a kitchen/diner and a conservatory provide comfortable, adaptable space for downsizers or those seeking easier mobility. The property includes a driveway, detached garage and an enclosed low‑maintenance rear garden.
Offered with no forward chain, the home is occupancy-ready but reflects its 1970s/early 1980s construction: partial cavity wall insulation is assumed and some modernisation or energy-efficiency upgrades may be beneficial. The layout is compact at about 865 sq ft and there is a single bathroom, so buyers should consider whether the room count meets their needs.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing and convenient walking distance to shops, schools and amenities. Notable neighbourhood factors: the area is classified as deprived with very high local crime levels, which may affect insurance costs and future resale for some purchasers. Flood risk is low and council tax is described as affordable, which helps running costs.
This home will suit buyers wanting immediate, low-hassle occupation with scope to improve energy performance and update cosmetic elements over time. Investors should note the local social profile and crime statistics; owner-occupiers seeking ease of living and proximity to town will find this a sensible, compact option.
