Description

'Rose Cottage' presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors seeking to capitalize on its substantial potential. This charming, double-fronted detached cottage, constructed from natural stone and set in a picturesque semi-rural location near Ashington, boasts captivating views of the surrounding countryside. With just under two-thirds of an acre of land, the property features a generous garden offering sunny easterly and southerly aspects. The absence of Grade II listing provides the freedom for prospective buyers to explore significant extensions or the addition of structures such as a large carport or garage, pending planning permission. Inside, the home retains classic character touches such as exposed beams and natural stone fireplaces amidst its well-designed layout. Comprising four double bedrooms and living spaces that flow with an abundance of natural light, this residence is both functional and inviting. However, some areas may benefit from contemporary updates to align with modern living standards. Given its proximity to Sherborne's vibrant town centre—boasting shops, restaurants, and historical attractions—this property offers not only a lovely home but also a chance to enhance value through thoughtful improvements.
