Description

This detached bungalow, nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is located in the desirable village of Cattistock and presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. While the property requires modernisation, it offers a blank canvas for those looking to tailor their living space to personal taste. The interior includes a spacious sitting room illuminated by two front-facing bay windows, creating a bright and airy environment. The focal point is an attractive brick fireplace, adding character to the room. The kitchen/diner features ample wall and base units, providing opportunities for updating or redesigning according to your preferences. Both double bedrooms benefit from natural light through side and rear aspect windows, making them comfortable spaces to unwind. The bathroom contains essential amenities, including a panel-enclosed bath, WC, and wash hand basin. With thoughtful renovations, this home could be transformed into a stylish retreat. Outside, the property is set on a generous 0.26-acre plot with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside. The expansive rear garden offers a mix of mature trees and shrubs alongside a paved patio area—ideal for outdoor seating or entertaining. The front garden is predominantly lawned with established borders that enhance its appeal. A driveway ensures off-road parking and leads to a detached brick-built single garage. Cattistock itself boasts a strong community spirit with local amenities such as a historic pub over 400 years old, a village shop and post office, sports facilities including football and cricket pitches, as well as a notable lawn tennis club. Its convenient location allows easy access to nearby towns like Bridport, Yeovil, and Dorchester—all offering diverse shopping and leisure options. For investors or owners willing to put in some work, this bungalow represents significant potential not only as a residence but also as an opportunity to increase value through strategic renovations.
