House For Sale £465,000
A charming and generous four bedroom property set in a sought after hamlet location with fabulous countryside views and off road parking.
Highland is a semi-detached three storey cottage believed to date back to the late 19th Century and was originally two cottages. The property has rendered elevations under a pitched tiled roof with pretty front and rear gardens.
The property is approached by a garden path which takes you to an entrance porch. Steps up to the front door lead into a snug with period features including an attractive open fireplace with brick surround and an exposed stone wall. The kitchen is located at the rear of the property and is a wonderful size with plenty of space for a large dining table. There is a good range of wall mounted and floor standing units with ample built in kitchen storage. Appliances include a built in electric cooker with gas hob, integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and microwave. There is access into the utility room with plumbing for a washing machine and a separate cloakroom with hand basin. Doors from the dining area lead directly to the wonderfully private rear garden.
The main sitting room is located in the other half of the property with steps up from the snug. This is a fabulous double aspect room with countryside views, a large fireplace with inset wood burner and patio doors to the rear. Stairs from the sitting room lead to the first floor with three generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which has Jack and Jill access.
The second floor offers very versatile accommodation and is currently used as an attic/store room and a separate bedroom/study.
The property is approached from the road with a gravel parking area for 3-4 cars. A gate leads you into the front garden with lawn and an idyllic seating area taking advantage of the south facing countryside views. To the side of the property is a rose garden and vegetable plot and access to the rear garden. Surrounded by mature trees and hedging, the generous rear garden is laid to lawn with colourful island beds and established pond.
The rural hamlet of Hartgrove is two miles west of the charming village of Fontmell Magna with a village store, pub/restaurant, primary school, church and doctor’s surgery. Four miles north is the Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury offering a range of boutique shops, pubs, restaurants, a supermarket and recreational and commercial facilities. Five miles south is the former market town of Sturminster Newton. A mainline railway station direct to London (Waterloo) is accessible at Gillingham, 6 miles away.
On the doorstep is a network of country lanes, bridleways and footpaths to enjoy walking, cycling or riding. Melbury Hill and Fontmell Down provide open access for walking and riding.
