History And Overview
This charming, substantial, detached thatched cottage was originally built we believe in the 1800’s and was a two up and two down cob cottage. This over the years has been significantly extended twice in the 1930’s and 2000, and it now comprises well-planned modernised accommodation whilst retaining character features. This includes 4 bedrooms and 2-bathroom facilities to the first floor, plus and optional 5th bedroom on the ground floor, in addition to the sitting room, dining room, study and kitchen breakfast room.
The cottage stands in the most attractive and private garden on a site extending to about 1/3 of an acre, in a quiet prestigious residential lane in the heart of Colehill, approximately 1 mile from Wimborne Town Centre.
