Having been sympathetically refurbished throughout, the accommodation comprises a useful entrance porch that opens into a spacious hallway with ample room for storage. The main sitting room is positioned towards the front of the home and features an enticing exposed brick fireplace, wooden panelling and decorative coving helping to create a cosy and characterful room. The open plan kitchen breakfast room is located to the rear of the property with windows and doors leading to the garden allowing for plentiful natural light. The kitchen itself has been upgraded to a modern suite with deep blue storage cupboards contrasting against the wooden work surface, built-in & further free-standing appliances and central breakfast bar. A vertical hung radiator adds further warmth and style whilst the breakfast area offers ample room for a dining set.
Wooden crafted stairs lead to the first floor where an initial landing seating area has been created before leading to the two double bedrooms, both of which features built-in wardrobes. A stunning, four-piece bathroom has also been recently refitted to create a wonderful family bathroom suitable for all.
Externally the cottage boasts a well-maintained and landscaped rear garden with a sizeable patio, lawn and additional flower borders. A useful free-standing shed provides additional storage for the home.
Shaftesbury is famed for the iconic cobbled street of Gold Hill and rich history going back to the times of King Alfred. Shaftesbury is a delightful community orientated town with an attractive and bustling High Street that provides most everyday requirements including a farmer's market, cafés, charity shops, various retail shops and a cottage hospital. Families are drawn to this area by the quality of life and excellent choice of state and independent schools including Port Regis, Clayesmore, Sandroyd, Bryanston, and St Mary’s amongst many others.
The local road network offers strong connections to the other main towns in the region including Gillingham, Salisbury, Sherborne, Warminster and Yeovil as well as to the South Coast. In addition the A303 links with the M3 that makes London accessible for the motorist. There are railway stations at Gillingham (4.5 miles) and Tisbury (8 miles) with mainline services to London (Waterloo) and the West Country. Shaftesbury also offers several ways to explore the stunning countryside and traditionally English villages of the Blackmore Vale, Cranborne Chase and Wiltshire Downs with their many miles of public footpaths and bridleways.
