House For Sale £865,000
A superb cottage attached to two fantastic ground floor and first floor workshops, a short walk from the centre of Beaminster.
PROPERTY
Tucked away near the centre of the most popular and picturesque town of Beaminster, this wonderful property offers a unique opportunity, comprising a two-storey semi-detached four-bedroom home and two-storey workshop and garage.
Approached via a shared drive on the sought after Fleet Street, first glimpses of Granary Cottage are most impressive with its attractive stone elevations beneath a pitched slate roof.
The property, which is not listed, is bordered to the west by Fleet Street and to the east by a narrow watercourse. Part of the property is rated for commercial use, although not fully used as such. The upper floor of the workshop and garage is used as a joinery/workshop, and offers huge potential, (subject to planning) to further extend the residential aspect, or for a number of other uses including a fantastic home office.
On first entering the cottage there is a real sense of charm and space with a large open plan kitchen and sitting area with plenty of room for a dining/kitchen table and views over the delightful gardens. The kitchen incorporates a number of wall and base units with a utility room alongside and a large under stairs cupboard. The garage and office can be internally accessed via the utility room.
Also worth a special mention is a superb garden room which can easily be used all year round and with sliding doors opening out to the garden and terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. The accommodation throughout is well-presented yet totally untainted by inappropriate modernisation with huge potential to further extend and improve.
The accommodation on the first floor is fantastic with four beautiful bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and there is also a separate family shower room. The upstairs bedrooms have the potential to serve a variety of purposes.
OUTSIDE
Attached to the cottage is a two-storey section with a large garage/workshop on the ground floor and a separate WC. Above this is an absolutely superb joinery/workshop, again with separate access.
To the rear of the cottage is a lean-to utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, accessed externally. There are a number of timber sheds and structures located to the rear, ideal for storage.
To the rear of the house is a delightful garden mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and borders, partially enclosed, and timber fencing and a stream alongside one boundary. There is a very pretty stone paved terrace, ideal for entertaining.
All in all, this is a fantastic mixed use property in a most convenient and popular location.
LOCATION
Beaminster is justifiably one of the most sought-after towns in the area. This vibrant, attractive market town has an excellent range of facilities including a butcher, baker, post office, chemist, hardware store, convenience stores, greengrocers, two doctors' surgeries, veterinary surgery, independent gift and tea shops, restaurants, public houses, hotel and leisure facilities. There is a wide variety of clubs and societies to choose from and Beaminster Festival, an annual event, hosts local and national artists, writers and musicians. Nestled in the countryside surrounded by hills, woodland and rolling pasture, much of it designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is a short walk to nearby footpaths and a vast network of routes.
The Georgian town of Bridport and the coast at West Bay are within 20 minutes' drive and Crewkerne with a main line railway service to London Waterloo is approximately 7 miles, both with a further range of facilities and supermarkets, including Waitrose.
