This three-bedroom detached cottage, nestled in the picturesque rural landscape of Dorset, offers a unique opportunity for both comfortable living and future enhancement. With a harmonious blend of historical character and contemporary style, the property presents ample room for personalization. The entrance is through a timber front door leading to a charming porch that connects to an inviting hallway.
The spacious kitchen/breakfast room features classic shaker-style cabinetry, quartz countertops, and an electric Aga set within the charming inglenook fireplace, creating an atmosphere of warmth and nostalgia. Adjacent is a sizable utility room equipped with modern slate flooring and generous storage options, including access to the rear garden through a traditional stable door.
The sitting room boasts rustic flooring enhanced by a wood burner and views over the tranquil country lane. Upstairs, the first-floor landing can accommodate additional furniture while maintaining its quality finishes throughout. The principal bedroom offers stunning countryside views alongside two additional double bedrooms—one complete with a period fireplace.
A large attic room with Velux windows presents potential for further conversion into an extra bedroom (subject to relevant permissions). Outside, the expansive grounds include multiple outbuildings such as garages, workshops, stables with tack rooms, and even a kennel. The rear garden features both extensive patio space and vibrant lawns surrounded by mature flora—a perfect canvas for outdoor enjoyment.
Positioned on the outskirts of Maiden Newton village, this property benefits from close proximity to local amenities including shops, schools, and transport links to larger towns like Dorchester and Bridport. An exciting bonus: previous planning permissions were granted for further developments including an annexe and sunroom—opening doors for significant investment potential in this enchanting home.
