Description

Tucked away in the historic village of Bere Regis, this charming two-bedroom cottage presents a fantastic opportunity for renovation and investment potential. The property is well-positioned within a row of terraced homes, providing easy access to local amenities and picturesque countryside walks, making it appealing for both residential living and holiday rentals. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a dining room that exudes character while incorporating modern elements. The current owners have managed to retain the cottage's traditional feel while updating it with contemporary touches. Adjacent to the dining area, the sitting room offers a cozy atmosphere, complete with an ornate fireplace that promises warmth during cooler evenings. The kitchen benefits from ample natural light, thanks to its glazed back door and large window. It features contemporary cabinetry, a fitted gas hob, and a waist-height electric double oven, along with space for an upright fridge freezer and washing machine. A step up from the sitting room leads you to the bathroom, where modern finishes meet functionality with a wide bath offering a shower over it. On the first floor, you will find two double bedrooms that overlook the village and offer views of rolling hills in the distance. The layout offers great potential for reconfiguration or modernization to suit personal preferences or rental needs. Outside, the garden is a standout feature of this property. Designed across multiple levels, it provides various spaces for planting or entertainment. From the kitchen entrance, a walled area serves as an ideal outdoor dining spot surrounded by natural stone—a perfect setting for alfresco meals with friends. Ascending through the garden reveals further sections suitable for gardening or relaxing; one area is particularly charming as an afternoon tea nook equipped for enjoying scones and jam amidst serene surroundings. At the top of the garden lies a decked seating area that offers stunning views over neighbouring hills—an inviting space to enjoy evening sunsets. Additionally, there is a summer house currently utilized as a home gym but equally suited for conversion into an office or hobby space; with planning permission (STPP), it could even serve as extra accommodation. A practical storage unit at the rear ensures ample space for bikes and outdoor equipment. Unusually for this village setting, there is parking available for at least two cars. The location enhances appeal further; situated just off major routes A31 and A35 allows straightforward travel to Dorchester to the west and Poole and Bournemouth to the southeast. The nearby riverside town of Wareham can be reached via scenic drives through Wareham Forest. Local amenities like shops, a post office
