Description

This substantial five-bedroom residence, originally built in the 17th century as a barrel store, offers a blend of historic charm and modern potential. Having been owned by the same family for nearly five decades, the house has undergone significant extensions and reconfigurations to transform it into a spacious family home. While it boasts expansive gardens filled with mature herbs and shrubs, it also presents an opportunity for renovation to enhance its interior and exterior appeal further. The ground floor features a large sitting room with a woodburning stove and direct access to the terrace, alongside a formal dining room and a kitchen equipped with ample cabinetry and a traditional gas-fired Rayburn. Beyond the kitchen lies a utility space and conservatory that showcases views of the beautiful gardens. Upstairs, four well-sized bedrooms include an en-suite bathroom, while the fifth bedroom offers private access via a separate staircase. Though currently fitted with gas central heating and double glazing, there is scope for modernization throughout—providing an attractive investment prospect in this tranquil coastal village. The outdoor area includes parking spaces for multiple vehicles, striking terrace space for entertaining, and charming outbuildings such as a thatched stone structure and summer house. Located within walking distance to Seatown beach and close to local amenities in Chideock, this property is ideally situated to capitalize on both residential living and holiday let opportunities.
