A delightful semi detached Victorian cottage with two double bedrooms, outside space and parking and located in the heart of the sought after and desirable village of Shillingstone. The village has a range of facilities, which include a public house, petrol station with shop plus a Co-op convenience store. There is also the Trailway with the old railway station and café plus a large seven acre recreation ground and a primary school. The village lies 4 miles from the market town of Sturminster Newton and 6 miles from Blandford Forum in the opposite direction, both of which offer a comprehensive range of amenities including secondary and further educational establishments.

Having been a beloved home for the past decade, this cottage has been thoughtfully updated to meet modern needs while retaining its historical charm. A new fireplace has been installed in the sitting room with multi-fuel burner and tiled hearth, which gives a cosy ambiance and adds a touch of warmth and character, the addition of a downstairs WC adds convenience, while the new kitchen with soft-closing doors and oak work surfaces is a chef's dream and has plenty of space for a dining table and chairs. Outside, parking has been created, providing enough room to park two cars and the private courtyard, complete with an undercover area, provides a tranquil space to relax and entertain, perfect for enjoying the British weather in style.

This delightful home must be viewed to fully appreciate how it will satisfy many prospective buyers' needs - a fabulous full time residence or equally a great lock up and leave UK base as well as a wise investment for the rental market. An early viewing is strongly advised as this type of home in this location will not be on the market for long.
