Description

A charming and sympathetically updated, Grade II Listed two bedroom end of terrace cottage situated in the heart of the popular village of Yetminster. Now offered with off road parking and a no onward chain.


Clare Cottage, a Grade II listed thatched cottage nestled in the heart of a conservation area within the picturesque village of Yetminster, offers a seamless blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Just a stone's throw away from the historic Abbey town of Sherborne, this enchanting cottage invites you in through an ornate front door framed by ham stone mullions.
Step inside to discover a sympathetically restored interior that radiates character at every turn. The lounge, with original flagstone flooring and a fireplace with historical significance from its days as The Swan Inn, beckons with its warmth and heritage. Exposed beams, a cast iron radiator, and a quaint window seat add to the cottage's irresistible allure, creating an ambience of timeless comfort.
Continuing through the hall, the newly fitted kitchen steals the spotlight with its solid oak worktops, Belfast sink, and integrated appliances (dishwasher and fridge) offering both elegance and practicality. Adorned with views of the garden, it becomes the heart of the home. Conveniently located on the ground floor, a WC also houses space for a washing machine.
Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms await; the main bedroom features original, beautifully restored elm floorboards, adding a touch of rustic elegance to the space. The shower room, though modest in size, surprises with its quirky charm and tasteful design. Moreover, Clare Cottage has been thoughtfully upgraded with a complete electrical rewire, plumbing/heating system, and wood treatment throughout, ensuring not just charm, but also peace of mind for its lucky inhabitants. With its blend of historic allure and modern comforts, Clare Cottage presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of timeless beauty in a coveted location.
