Description

This charming semi-detached cottage, situated in a tranquil Dorset village, presents an exciting opportunity for renovation and enhancement. Nestled on a spacious plot of approximately 0.14 acres, the property features a large rear garden, offering ample space for outdoor improvements or extensions, subject to planning permissions. With its traditional thatched roof and natural stone façade, this home exudes character while requiring some modernization to unlock its full potential. Inside, period features such as exposed beams and a brick fireplace anchor the home's charm but could benefit from updating to meet contemporary tastes. The accommodation includes three generous bedrooms and multiple living areas including a sitting room with access to a conservatory, which could serve as a wonderful focal point for entertaining or relaxing. Close proximity to local amenities—such as shops and schools—and scenic countryside walks further enhances this property's appeal for families or as an investment project. Overall, while the property is already equipped with essential heating systems and double glazing, it offers considerable scope for personalisation and improvement at various levels.
