Description
The Dwelling - 1 Charity Farm Cottage, as the name indicates, is a classic 19th-century farm cottage with handsome stone elevations under a slate roof. The property sits to the centre of the sought-after village of Litton Cheney that lies on the north side of the Bride Valley. The cottage was substantially extended in the 20th century and is now in need of some modernisation but remains in good working order with a generously proportioned rear garden.
Accommodation - The accommodation is simply laid out with a sitting room to the front of the property centred around a large brick fireplace equipped with a wood burning stove. The entrance hall is to the centre of the house and is of generous proportions, with enough space to be utilised as a home office or separate dining room if required. The kitchen/dining room is to the rear and has space for a good sized every day dining table and is equipped with solid wood floor mounted cupboards handmade by Dorset Kitchen Company, with an integral double oven and electric hob with space for a dishwasher and washing machine. In addition there is a walk-in pantry and a useful cloakroom downstairs.
Upstairs there are three good sized bedrooms served by a bathroom that is equipped with both a shower and a bath. The property has plank flooring and brace and ledge doors throughout giving continuity.
Outside - To the front of the house there is a small garden enclosed by a stone wall with a pathway down to the main entrance that lies along the side. The west facing rear gardens are unusually generously proportioned, with space for a further extension subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents. The gardens are primarily laid to lawn, offering an ideal blank canvas for gardening enthusiasts and are largely enclosed by a stone wall.
Situation - This property is situated in Litton Cheney, a popular village known for its outstanding countryside beauty and offers numerous walking opportunities. Heading west you will find the Jurassic Coastline and one of Dorset's local towns, Bridport, it has a variety of independent shops, restaurants that cater to range of tastes, and especially for its arts and music events. Dorchester and Weymouth are to the east of the village where sports and other opportunities lie.
