A characterful cottage with flexible accommodation located in the centre of the popular village of Semley.

The ground floor features a welcoming entrance hall leading to a traditional sitting room, a spacious, bright, semi open-plan kitchen/breakfast room that overlooks the garden and formal dining room, and bright breakfast room. Upstairs, the property provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite with an en-suite shower room and built-in storage, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom.
The Annexe
Offering a variety of uses, the annexe easily provides additional, independent accommodation featuring a shower room and a generous open-plan kitchen / living area on the ground floor. A feature spiral staircase leads to a first-floor bedroom. This could work equally well as a hobbies area, for working from home or to provide an income stream.

SITUATION
Semley is a desirable village enjoying lovely countryside on its doorstep but with the convenience of everyday amenities a short distance away. The village offers a popular public house, the village church, primary school, nursery at the village hall and small convenience/bakery store. All everyday amenities including, doctors surgeries, dentist, supermarkets and a choice of national and independent retailers can be found in Tisbury and the market town of Shaftesbury, both 4 miles by car. Tisbury also benefits from a mainline railway station offering services to London Waterloo within 2 hours. The wider area offers a large choice of state and independent primary and secondary schools. Local leisure activities include numerous leisure centres, shooting, golf, horse riding, and various arts and crafts clubs. Communication links are excellent with the A350 being a short distance and the A303 which runs to London and the West country approximately 6 miles from the property.

OUTSIDE
Applehay is approached via a tarmacadam drive across the common, leading to a private, gated gravel parking area. The beautifully maintained gardens wrap around three sides of the cottage, enjoying farmland views on the southerly aspect. A substantial timber outbuilding provides useful storage for garden equipment.
At the front of the original cottage, a charming pedestrian gate opens directly onto the common, providing easy access to the nearby village amenities.
