House For Sale £850,000
A superb cottage recently beautifully restored set in its own grounds on the fringe of this very popular West Dorset village.
THE PROPERTY
It is hard to imagine a more idyllic setting than that occupied by Ford Cottage. The only house at the end of the lane, the property sits in a quiet position with woodland, streams and meadowland surrounding it.
On first entering the property there is a real sense of light and space and it is immediately obvious that the property has been lovingly restored with stone flooring throughout the ground floor and attractive wooden beams. Of particular note is the lovely sitting room with a central fireplace and wood burning stove and views over the delightful gardens and grounds. The family kitchen has recently been beautifully restored and is the perfect hub of the house with plenty of room for a dining/kitchen table. Alongside the kitchen is a large boot room and a utility room and WC.
A very pretty wooden staircase leads up to the first floor with a large principal bedroom and en suite shower room, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The gardens surround the property and are a true delight. Two streams run through them, one meeting the other with a small waterfall and the sound of gently running water pervades. To the southern gable of the cottage is a terrace with pergola over, ideal for al fresco dining. There are several bridges over the steams and small areas of woodland fringe.
To the rear of the property is an area of meadow divided into two enclosures, the first with a dew pond.
There are two garages/stores of timber construction with electric light and power.
All in all, this cottage would make a wonderful primary or secondary home in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
