De Haviland Close, Merley, Wimborne, Dorset, BH21

A beautifully presented, modern 5 bedroom detached family home situated in a favoured cul-de-sac on the popular Merley development, about 2 miles from Wimborne town centre.

Built in 1979, and extended on 4 separate occasions, the property offers spacious accommodation, decorated to an impeccable standard, with quality floor coverings. The house is connected to all mains services, and has gas central heating, UPVC double glazing, garaging and excellent off road parking, and the attractively landscaped, private gardens are a particular feature. Also worthy of note are the vaulted garden room and ground floor en suite bedroom.

A large entrance porch leads to a long entrance hall with under stairs storage space and a cloakroom. There is a large living room with glazed double doors to the rear garden. A spacious dining room opens onto an impressive garden room with a vaulted ceiling, 3 rooflights and glazed double doors to the rear garden.

There is a utility room with worktops, units and space for white goods. The attractive kitchen/breakfast room features work surfaces, pine units, breakfast bar, fan oven, ceramic hob, extractor, integrated fridge and freezer, ceramic tiled floor and door to outside.

Also on the ground floor there is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes (available by separate negotiation), an en suite shower room (with shower and wash basin.)

Stairs lead to a large, L-shaped first floor landing with loft access and airing cupboard. Bedroom 1, to the rear, has full height wardrobes and an en suite shower room (with shower and wash basin.) Bedroom 2 has built-in wardrobes and a shelved cupboard. Bedroom 3, also to the rear, is currently used as a study, and bedroom 4 is a generous single room. There is also a fully tiled family bathroom.

A large tarmac driveway provides extensive off road parking. The open plan, lawned front garden includes lawns, a cherry tree, pavioured pathways and 2 fir trees. The property benefits from an integral garage with up-and-over door, lighting, power and water.

The immaculately presented, well stocked rear garden is enclosed by fencing and walling, and features a flat lawn, a pond, a planted rockery, a palm tree, a large paved terrace, and a pathway around the house leading to an entertaining area (with purpose-built barbecue, raised timber deck and pergola with climber.)

Merley offers local shops, a health practice, a First School and a church, and bus services run to the coastal towns of Poole and Bournemouth, both of which have mainline rail links to London Waterloo. Schools for all ages, including grammar schools, are easily accessible, and Wimborne town centre provides a wide range of amenities.
