Merley Lane, Wimborne, BH21

An imposing and extensively modernised five bedroom family home within the heart of Merley boasting generous open plan living as well as a sympathetic south facing garden, two en-suite bathroom facilities and scope to create an integral annex.

Property Description
The property is situated centrally on Merley Lane at the head of Oakley Straight and has been methodically extended and updated by its current custodians to create a very versatile family home. The accommodation comprises an open plan reception hallway with feature fire place, formal dining room and an expansive open plan kitchen and living room, along with ground floor cloakroom. The first floor offers four, evenly proportioned double bedrooms, of which two benefit from en-suite shower facilities, a further family bathroom and a fifth bedroom which can easily function as an office. The kitchen was only completed c. 4 years ago and the open plan living room features three ceiling lanterns as well as westerly facing bi-folding doors, which all contribute to a very light and spacious environment that is ideal for family living and entertaining. The kitchen has been supplied by Magnet and there are two independent eye level ovens and there is a generous utility area which houses washing appliances. The home also features a smart lighting system and the home benefits from gas fired heating as well as a solar panel and photovoltaic tubing, which contributes towards water heating and the provision of electricity. Furthermore, the dining room is positioned towards the front of the home and has the dimensions that would easily facilitate the creation of annexed accommodation, should it be required.

Gardens and Grounds
The property is slighted elevated from the kerb, giving a sense of privacy and the front garden is entirely laid to a tarmacadam driveway which has created a forecourt style environment suited to several vehicles. Furthermore, there is an EV charging point and gated access to the rear garden from the right hand side of the home. The rear garden has been carefully landscaped to a kept lawn and there is a generous paved patio which spans the rear elevation of the home. There is a covered pagoda which houses a spa pool and the garden has a south facing elevation.

*NB: There is planning permission to build a garage at the front of the property, or the annex could be converted back into a garage.
