House For Sale £395,000
Vale Cottage is a terraced stone cottage in the heart of Stour Provost surrounded by pretty period houses. Listed Grade II, the cottage has been sympathetically modernised in recent years with improvements including a pressurized water system and a well equipped kitchen. There is a nicely proportioned sitting/dining room with oak flooring leading to a well equipped kitchen/breakfast room and cloakroom at ground floor level. Upstairs are three bedrooms with a family bathroom. Other attributes worthy of mention include beamed ceilings, a magnificent inglenook fire place with inset wood burner and window seats in the sitting room/dining room.
The property is approached off the street with steps leading to the front door flanked on either side with well stocked borders. The majority of the garden lies to the rear and is accessed from the kitchen onto a paved terrace with steps flanked on either side by colourful flower borders with roses, hydrangeas and geraniums leading to the lawn. This is well screened on both sides, with a path leading to the top of the garden with a timber shed, wood store and a gate through tall beech hedging, leading to the rear of the village church. Parking is available immediately outside the front of the property.
Vale Cottage lies in the centre of Stour Provost, an extremely pretty North Dorset village comprising mainly of period houses and cottages. The village has a church, village hall and a primary school nearby. Shaftesbury has an excellent range of facilities including cafes, restaurants, niche retailers, hotels, banks, a small hospital, library, health centre and arts centre. In nearby Gillingham, there is a Waitrose as well as a mainline railway station with services to London Waterloo. For more sophisticated requirements, Sherborne, Bath and Salisbury are within motoring distance. The A303 lies some eight miles to the north, giving access to the South West and London, via the M3.
