House For Sale £400,000
A wonderful opportunity to purchase a captivating, semi detached cottage, offering adaptable spacious accommodation with three double bedrooms, three reception rooms and boasting a rear garden of around 200 feet/61 meters in length as well as far reaching views over the Blackmore Vale. The property lies within the conservation area of Stalbridge, one of Dorset's smallest town and is just a short walk to the town centre where there is an award winning supermarket, family run butchers, post office, public house and takeaway shops. There is also a community run library, well rated primary school and dentist. We believe that the cottage dates to the mid 1860s, built of natural stone under a triple gable roof and has been very much loved and enjoyed home to our sellers for thirty years. During this time it has been extremely well maintained and has recently benefitted from new external fencing and concrete posts to the rear garden. In addition, the property has uPVC double glazed windows in a pane sectional finish and gas fired central heating as well as retaining character features, such as the original front door and key, deep window sills and picture rail. The old laundry outhouse, privy and pig house are also in excellent condition with original flagstone floors. This lovely home offers a well laid out, bright interior that needs to be viewed to really appreciate how it would meet many potential buyers' needs. An early viewing is recommended to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next lucky owner.
