Duck Street, Symondsbury

Charming four bedroom detached Grade II listed cottage with parking and a lovely garden a short walk to Colmers Hill.

The Dwelling - This property is a classic country cottage to the centre of Symondsbury village. It has all the character one would expect of a house of this age with timbered ceilings, open fireplaces and window seats to name but a few features. The position is outstanding with some of best walking to be had in Dorset straight from the village itself, Bridport town just a short drive or a long walk away and the village pub a stroll away.

Accommodation - The accommodation is set out in traditional style with a kitchen leading to formal dining room and in turn to a sitting room on the ground floor. The kitchen is equipped with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units and cupboards with space for a breakfast table to its centre with, to one side a doorway through to a cloakroom. To the centre is a formal dining room with windows on each side beyond which there is a sitting room with the same double aspect each room having a traditional fireplace as its focal point equipped with a woodburning stove . Upstairs there are four good bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

Outside - To the left-hand side of the property there is parking for 1 to 2 cars while the gardens stretch out to the rear of the property and are organised into three terraces. Each terrace has its own character with the formal areas nearest the cottage and the wilder areas furthest from the cottage. The gardens adjoin agricultural land and an orchard.

Situation - This property lies within the village of Symondsbury. Here you will find wonderful countryside walks over Colmers Hill and the well established Symondsbury Estate.
