Trigon, Wareham, BH20

Welcome to East Cottage, which is thought to have been built towards the end of the Victorian era.
Accessed via an unmade track and private gravel driveway, the home announces itself quietly but confidently, a detached cottage that has been thoughtfully extended for modern living, yet retaining its original soul.

The open and generous stone reception hall welcomes you. There is a lovely warm vibe to the cottage, which can only come from the history of the original cottage.

However, there are plenty of modern updates to the cottage, including a utility/shower room just off the hallway. You will find space and plumbing for a washing machine, room to hang coats and space to store muddy boots. There is also a shower, basin, and WC.
The sitting room manages to be both light and bright and cosy too. With a log burner to warm the heart of the home, and character features, it provides a lovely ambiance for you to enjoy. The doors to the south facing terrace can be thrown open on a Summer’s day, allowing you to utilise the space both inside and out for entertaining.
The snug links the sitting room to the kitchen, but retains its own personality. A cosy area for reading, listening to music and perhaps throwing those doors open onto the garden terrace for a sun downer, would be a perfect idea.
The kitchen/dining room, is a light and open space, it’s country style is simple, but there is a statement range style cooker (LPG Gas) which stands out. There are also electric ovens. There is space for a tall fridge/freezer and dishwasher, and plenty of storage and preparation spaces too.
The dining area can comfortably accommodate a generous dining table, perfect for kitchen suppers. Doors open onto the terrace, which has relaxing rural views, and the sound of birdsong breaking through the quietness.

From the hallway, stairs rise to the three double bedrooms, all served by the family bathroom, which has a deep bath to relax in, a separate shower, handwash basin and WC.

The bedrooms are full of character, with ornate Victorian fireplaces and sloping ceilings. The principal bedroom, has views out to the garden and beyond.

A gravel driveway provides plenty of parking for multiple vehicles. And there is an EV charger to one side.
The gardens of East Cottage are quite simply, a haven of peace and tranquillity. The dark skies allow star gazing and contemplation.
A rear stone terrace runs the width of the cottage, with a Southerly aspect, it is a sunny, warm and an inviting space to spend some time. The terrace is accessible from all of the living spaces, allowing an ease and natural flow between inside and outside.
The garden is approximately 0.43 acres, and has been left mostly to its natural self, a simple lawn and some established shrubs and trees. The gently sloping lawn, creates a sense of openness and freedom, but ultimately the feeling of privacy and seclusion that is found here, is a rare find.
It could be a wonderful project to bring the garden to life, with the planting of a kitchen garden, the placement of a bee hive and a chicken coop.
The garage provides storage for garden paraphernalia and electric bikes or kayaks, on one side. The other side has been used as a home office, and now an operations hub for the holiday lettings business. There is water, power and plumbing and the walls have insulation too. There is potential here, to create a home annexe, subject to the usual regulations.
Nestled on the fringes of the ancient Wareham Forest, East Cottage originally formed part of the historic Trigon Estate. It's location is hidden away, and yet within close proximity to the Saxon walled town of Wareham.

Wareham is a busy market town, with an eclectic mix of independent shops, cafes, eateries and its own independent cinema.
There is a main line station with a regular timetable connection to London Waterloo.

Wareham is the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck, with the world renowned Jurassic Coast, picture postcard village of Corfe Castle, and the famous Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door are within driving distance.
There is an exceptional network of bike and walking trails via Wareham Forest and it is easy to connect to national footpaths too.

An open house is being hosted on Friday 15th May from 1330, interested and proceedable parties, will need to secure a viewing slot in order to view.
