An attractive traditional two bedroom Dorset country cottage, built in the late 18th Century, retaining much of its period charm with added modern contemporary touches. No single cottage in The Street is quite like the other! Constructed from cob under a lime render (recently redone throughout, internally and externally) and a thatched roof (in need to attention in the near future), the cottage has been sympathetically maintained and renovated, and includes a generous garden leading to enchanting woodland.
The delightful SITTING ROOM contains a lovely Inglenook fireplace with cosey wood burner and bread ovens, plus aspect to the front of the property. The DINING ROOM has been thoughtfully refurnished with tiled flooring and is a charming practical room with a side aspect leaded window, and feature fireplace. The newly fitted KITCHEN BREAKFAST ROOM blends country style with contemporary convenience. There is an integrated electric double oven/grill with five-ring electric hob, and ample space for further white goods, plus space for a breakfast table. Beyond is a convenient UTILITY AREA, and then the FAMILY BATHROOM with bath, W.C. and wash hand basin, finished to the same high standards as evidenced throughout.
Stairs rise to the two bedrooms, with the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM overlooking the front aspect, and the SECOND BEDROOM accessed beyond overlooking the rear. This room also contains a new ENSUITE with shower cubicle, W.C. and wash hand basin, lending the second bedroom to becoming an idea dedicated walk-in wardrobe or home office, if desired.
Outside
The extensive elevated rear garden takes advantage of the most stunning views across the valley. At all times of the day there is a delightful position within the garden from which to enjoy the sun, which it turn leads to an extensive woodland area.
