Description
Main Description - A beautifully and sympathetically refurbished thatched cottage believed to date back to 1720. Situated in a semi-rural location just outside Lytchett Minster and on the edge of the hamlet of Slepe. The property is close to and has good access to both Poole and Bournemouth, both benefitting from a mainline rail link at Poole. The riverside town of Wareham which is just over 5 miles away and leads through to the Jurassic coastline with Lulworth Cove, Studland and Swanage beaches.
On the ground floor of the cottage there are two reception rooms, one benefitting from a superb inglenook fireplace with large wood burning stove. The kitchen offers a range of base and eye level units and leads through to an impressive, recently constructed garden room with views over open farmland to the rear. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom with en-suite shower, ideal for guests, with access to a courtyard garden to the rear. Completing the downstairs is a cloakroom with WC and wash basin.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, set at opposite ends of the cottage. One of the bedrooms offers an en-suite shower room whilst the other has its own walk in wardrobe and is served by a stunning main bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with a freestanding copper bathtub, from which you get a wonderful view of the gardens, a wash basin, WC and a separate shower.
Externally the driveway sweeps up through the gardens and gives access to a double garage, single garage and workshop as well as offering ample space for off road parking. The gardens are beautifully tendered, mainly laid to level lawn with a selection of pretty flowers to the front of the cottage. There is a vegetable patch and the remains of a piggery, which could be the perfect spot for an outdoor kitchen/BBQ area. There are a number of hidden seating areas sotted round the garden, some offering pleasant views over neighboring farmland.
The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.
