House For Sale £450,000
A delightful and charming terraced character cottage with tremendous far reaching rural views, three double bedrooms and presented to the market with the advantage of no onward chain. The cottage enjoys a prime position, just a short stroll to the centre of Dorset's smallest town and lies in the favoured and sought after Gold Street, which forms part of the conservation area. The town caters well for everyday needs with an award winning supermarket, family run butchers, post office and dentist surgery. There is also a highly rated primary school, community library, public house and various takeaway outlets. We believe that the cottage dates to the 18th century and rumour suggests that at one time might have been used as a Cider House. The cottage retains many character and original features, which include the original front door, pane glass windows with seats under, fireplaces with Bressumer beams and a Victorian style fireplace plus extra wide exposed floorboards. Catering for modern day expectations there is gas fired central heating via radiators. This lovely cottage must be viewed to really appreciate how it would meet many potential buyers' needs and how it could be your next home.
