Property description

Dickinson Bowden is pleased to offer this deceptively spacious split level apartment which is full of character located in the heart of the County Town of Dorchester. The property's accommodation is arranged over the ground and first floor and benefits from a ground floor double bedroom suite, stunning living room with double height ceilings, separate dining room and a well equipped kitchen with integrated appliances with granite work surfaces above. On the first floor there is a galleried landing, a further double bedroom, walk in storage cupboard, bathroom and a mezzanine space which over looks the living room. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazed windows. Originally built in 1839, Bejamin Ferrey House was converted just after the turn of the millennium into luxury town centre apartments which benefit from allocated parking at the front of the building. To the rear of the building there is pedestrian access leading to Princes Street.

Entrance hallway
The generous and impressive entrance hallway with its high ceilings and painted original stonework arch is just a small taster of the character that flows throughout the apartment.

Doors provide access into the living room, dining room and ground floor bedroom suite. There is also an under stair storage cupboard, telephone point and smoke alarm.

Living Room - 19' 0'' x 11' 7'' (5.80m x 3.54m)
With its wonderful high ceilings and the clever use of mirrors which accentuate some of the beautiful period features within the room, the sitting room really does offer the wow factor.

There are wall lights, two radiators, television and telephone points.

Dining Room - 12' 7'' x 6' 11'' (3.83m x 2.12m)

Kitchen - 9' 7'' x 7' 7'' (2.92m x 2.30m)
