Sturminster Marshall

A CHARMING CHARACTER - 3 bedroom thatched cottage, situated in an enviable semi-rural location

Nestled in the picturesque village of Sturminster Marshall, this beautifully presented 3 bedroom semi-detached cottage offers a rare blend of character, comfort, and modern convenience. Having been thoughtfully remodelled, extended, and re-thatched in recent years, the property now boasts a light-filled and airy interior, ideal for modern living while retaining its traditional charm.

Ideally located within easy reach of Wimborne town centre, the property also enjoys proximity to local nature reserves, scenic woodland & riverside walks, and highly regarded schools. Excellent road links provide convenient access to Blandford, Poole, and Bournemouth, making this an ideal setting for families and professionals alike.

A charming thatched entrance canopy welcomes you to the front of the property. Stepping through the timber ledged & braced front door, you're greeted by a warm and characterful sitting room featuring exposed ceiling beams, a cosy inglenook fireplace with timber bressummer beam, a front aspect window, and a handy understairs cupboard. A second reception room, currently used as a playroom, also showcases beautiful exposed beams and provides a flexible additional living space.

To the rear, the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room is finished in a sleek, contemporary style. Full-width sliding patio doors frame lovely views over the garden and open fields beyond, allowing natural light to flood the space with a lantern skylight. The kitchen is equipped with an extensive range of units topped with quartz work surfaces, a central island with breakfast bar, Belfast sink, and high-quality appliances including an electric induction range-style cooker, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher.

A utility area adjoins the kitchen and offers further storage, plumbing for a washing machine, a wine rack, and a work surface. Beyond this, a stylish ground floor bathroom features a freestanding oval bath, WC, and wash basin.

Stairs from the sitting room lead to the first-floor landing, where you'll find 3 well-appointed bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area and wonderful views across open fields and towards the River Stour. All bedrooms are served by a modern family shower room comprising a shower cubicle, WC, and hand basin.

The rear garden is a particular highlight, private, enclosed, and in the agent's opinion, offering a high degree of seclusion. A spacious decked patio provides the perfect spot for outdoor entertaining, with ample room for a hot tub. The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn with space for a garden shed. To the front, there is off-road parking for two vehicles.
