Swyre Road West Bexington, Dorchester, DT2

An exceptional four/five-bedroom detached residence with sea views, ideally positioned in the heart of the highly sought-after coastal village of West Bexington.

Introduction
Just a short stroll from the beach, this distinctive and generously proportioned chalet bungalow enjoys a peaceful setting with stunning sea views, close to the renowned Manor and Club House restaurants. Owned by the same family since 1999, the property has been significantly enhanced over the years, most notably through the addition of an impressive two-storey rear extension, which has greatly expanded the accommodation and created two substantial first-floor double bedrooms. Photovoltaic solar panels were installed in January 2012 and benefit from a 25-year feed-in tariff.

The Property
The principal reception room is a beautifully presented front-facing sitting room, centred around an attractive open fireplace. Adjoining this is a versatile study or home office, with both rooms opening into a bright conservatory that overlooks the well maintained front garden and enjoys delightful distant sea views. The kitchen is well equipped with an extensive range of base and wall-mounted units, an integrated double oven, electric hob, stainless steel sink, and traditional Belfast sink. There is ample space for freestanding appliances, while a central breakfast island provides both practicality and a focal point. The adjoining dining room offers generous space for family dining and features a second charming open fireplace.

The ground floor accommodation also includes a spacious double bedroom with a large en suite bathroom comprising a bath with hand shower, WC, and wash basin. An additional internal room, currently used as a home office, could easily serve as a fifth bedroom but currently lacks a window it also features double doors connecting to the adjacent bedroom. A separate shower room, accessed from the hallway, includes a shower cubicle, WC, and wash basin, offering excellent flexibility for guests or multigenerational living.
A staircase from the study leads to the front section of the first floor, where the impressive principal bedroom enjoys breathtaking sea views and built-in storage within the eaves. This floor is served by a contemporary shower room.

A second staircase rises from the rear hallway to two further generous double bedrooms, both forming part of the substantial two-storey extension. A landing area also provides additional storage, including a cupboard housing the hot water tank and access to further loft storage.

Outside
The beautifully landscaped rear garden has been thoughtfully designed by the current owners. A paved terrace adjoins the property, leading via a gentle slope to the main garden. At the centre of this slope is an attractive two-tier ornamental fish pond. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by an abundance of mature hedging and established planting. To one side is a productive vegetable garden, greenhouse, and metal-framed shed, while the opposite side features a further large storage shed. Beyond, the garden enjoys an idyllic backdrop of surrounding organic farmland.

To the front, the property is approached via an extensive driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles, with an external power point suitable for motorhome charging. A generous lawned front garden enhances the property's kerb appeal. The driveway also leads to a long single garage with an electric roller door, power, and lighting.

The vendors have lived at the property for a long while and thoroughly enjoy the micro climate the rear garden offers. They noted the ability to grow cactus outside all year round and the protection from wind proving a great entertaining garden where you can still enjoy a sea view.

Situation
West Bexington is a sought-after small coastal village, with a single road leading down to the sea and a cluster of properties, a hotel, a farm shop and restaurant.
