Have you ever wanted to take a look inside one of the modern Poundbury homes on the market for more than £800,000. Well now’s your chance.
A four-bedroom home in Halstock Street has recently hit the market at a price of £875,000 as part of a new development.
Poundbury is the urban extension to Dorchester and has been built on ‘the principles of architecture and urban planning as advocated by HM King Charles, III, in ‘A Vision of Britain.’
The property sits in a row of similar looking houses, sticking to the theme of the architecture in the area, with Helen Asteris of Savills estate agents describing the area as ‘a sensational run of exquisitely styled houses.’
From the outside, the home fits in with the Poundbury aesthetic with large windows allowing for plenty of natural light and a two-toned exterior which has seen the bottom half of the building painted white and the top half remains as brickwork.
Moving inside, there is a very modern and elegant theme, with a large open plan kitchen and breakfast room complete with a breakfast bar and double doors to the garden.
Set out across three floors, the property boasts around 1,899 sq ft of space which includes four bathrooms, two of which are en-suite.
The modern theme is contrasted with the deeper bluey-grey tones of an office space and the more neutral beige tones of the principal bedroom.
There is also an outside area which the future homeowner could make the most of as well as a double garage.
Construction of Poundbury started in October 1993 and is scheduled to be completed in 2026.
