Dating back to the 1850s, this charming cottage features a delightful blend of chequered stone and flint construction topped with a classic clay tiled roof. Nestled in the quaint village of Sutton Waldron—situated between Iwerne Minster and Fontmell Magna within a conservation area—the property boasts an array of period details that contribute to its distinctive character. While the cottage holds significant potential for restoration and modernisation, it is appropriately priced to reflect this need. The extensive front and rear gardens offer ample outdoor space, and the possibility for extensions (pending planning consent) adds to its investment allure.
The interior is arranged over two levels, showcasing features such as an original arched brick fireplace and a Rayburn stove. Upon entering, you'll find a spacious hall leading to the sitting room, kitchen-diner, ground floor bathroom, and pantry. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, with the master bedroom housing built-in wardrobes and an intriguing hidden fireplace.
While the property requires some level of modernisation, it presents an exciting canvas for anyone looking to create a unique home tailored to their tastes. The adjacent cottage has successfully added a two-storey extension at the rear, suggesting similar possibilities here.
Outside, you will discover a picturesque garden with parking available for multiple vehicles. The sloping rear garden is bordered by hedges and features various shrubs and trees along with a summer house that needs repairs but promises serene views—ideal for relaxation during warm afternoons.
Located in South West England's beautiful countryside, Sutton Waldron may lack certain local amenities but offers community spirit alongside nearby conveniences in Iwerne Minster and Fontmell Magna. This property represents not just a home but also a valuable investment opportunity in a captivating area steeped in history.
