The principal bedroom benefits from 'his and hers' walk-in wardrobes and a modern fitted en-suite shower room. There are two additional double bedrooms and a fitted family bathroom, offering ample space for family and guests.
Outside - Valley Cottage is approached by a drive that is enclosed by mature trees and shrubs providing privacy from Plaisters Lane. The drive leads to a parking area for several vehicles and a detached double garage with power, lighting and a side pedestrian door. Situated to one side of the garage are two timber-built stables with lighting. There is a path to the front door and pedestrian access to either side of the property leading to the rear.
To the rear of the house is a stunning landscaped lawn garden with well-stocked shrub beds and trees. There are stone-paved sun terraces and a sun deck with a timber summer house which surrounds a delightful garden pond. The garden opens into a fenced paddock which borders the open fields beyond.
Situation - Valley Cottage is set within this charming village which nestles below the chalk downs and is about 3 miles to the north-east of Weymouth. Within the village is a picturesque duck pond, a pub/restaurant and access to some lovely walks across the surrounding downland. The Mill and Mill House were both used by Thomas Hardy in his novel 'The Trumpet Major' as the setting for Overcombe. Sutton Poyntz is a designated conservation area and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The nearby Preston area is well served with a wide range of amenities; including a primary school, doctor's surgery, hairdressers, a delicatessen, a general store and a small supermarket. There are also two public houses and a restaurant.
The County Town of Dorchester is about 4 miles away and offers a comprehensive range of shops as well as cultural recreational and educational facilities. The coastal resort of Weymouth provides the opportunity to enjoy a range of sailing and water sports activities, with beaches and walks along the Jurassic Coastline.
Both Weymouth and Dorchester also provide main line rail links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads.
