Broadmayne, Dorchester, Dorset

Situated on this favoured tree-lined road, lies this well-proportioned detached family home—beautifully balanced to offer space, style, and flexibility for modern living.

Stepping inside, you’re welcomed into a spacious ENTRANCE HALL which sets the tone for the rest of the home—bright, airy, and thoughtfully designed. Underfloor heating runs across the entire ground floor (with the exception of the gym), offering both comfort and warmth beneath your feet for those cooler months.

At the heart of the home is the impressive KITCHEN/DINING ROOM —flooded with natural light thanks to two sets of bi-folding doors that open directly onto the garden. Whether you're gathering the family or hosting friends, this space is made for entertaining. The kitchen with Travertine flooring underfoot adding a touch of sophistication, is equipped with contemporary wall and floor-mounted units topped with sleek quartz work surfaces. Integrated appliances include an AEG ™ induction hob, Neff ™ double oven and microwave, dishwasher, CDA ™ wine cooler, and there is space for a fridge/freezer. A large breakfast bar completes the look, offering both style and function and there is ample room for a dining table and chairs. A separate UTILITY ROOM keeps the everyday essentials tucked out of sight and there is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The SITTING ROOM is a wonderfully inviting space, bathed in natural light and benefiting from garden views via generously proportioned windows. A Portland stone fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove adds a natural focal point—perfect for cosy evenings in.

On the practical side, a modern SHOWER ROOM complete with wash hand basin and W.C lies adjacent to the fourth reception room, currently set up as a GYM. From here, there’s direct access into the integral garage.

Completing the ground floor accommodation are two versatile, interlinking rooms currently used as STUDY and CINEMA ROOM, ideal for modern family life with work-from-home flexibility.

Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are five double bedrooms of which all enjoy lovely outlooks and offer restful retreats for everyone. The PRINCIPAL and SECOND bedrooms are especially generous, each with its own stylish en-suite shower rooms and built-in storage. BEDROOM THREE and FOUR both benefit from built in wardrobes.

A family BATHROOM serves the remaining bedrooms and comprises a P-shaped bath with shower attachment and screen, wash hand basin with vanity unit under and W.C.

Outside
A wooden gate opens to a shingled driveway flanked by a plant border with mature shrubs, guiding you to the front of the property where there’s ample off-road parking for several vehicles and a single garage. The garden itself is a real highlight – thoughtfully landscaped and mainly laid to lawn, it offers a wonderful blend of structure and interest. Designed with both relaxation and entertaining in mind, there are multiple seating areas perfect for dining outdoors or simply enjoying the surroundings. Mature shrubs and flowering plants create seasonal colour and texture throughout, while a feature pond – complete with a remote-controlled waterfall – adds a peaceful focal point. Sculptures are positioned throughout, adding a touch of character and creativity, whilst a raised deck area provides a vantage point over the garden.

Location
Set in a picturesque part of Dorset now recognised as National Landscapes (formerly known as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty), the surrounding countryside offers an enviable lifestyle. Scenic walks start almost at the doorstep, with the stunning coastline of Ringstead Bay, Weymouth, and the Jurassic Coast just a short drive away.

The county town of Dorchester lies only 4 miles to the northwest and offers a wide selection of amenities, including a mainline station with regular services to London Waterloo and Bristol.

Broadmayne itself has a strong sense of community and is well-served by a village shop with post office, a popular pub, and a highly regarded first school. Tucked away on the village’s southern fringe, Martel Close is well-suited to those drawn to the countryside way of life.
