St. Martins Square, Gillingham

Quirky modernised charm, in a unique detached cottage that has been transformed by the present owners to a level rarely seen. This is a remarkable home that benefits from a finish that is only possible when someone has an eye for all the little details and an ambition to create something special for themselves. All within what most would regard as easy walking distance of all Gillingham has to offer.

This is a property that can only be fully appreciated when visiting to note all the appealing aspects. Where to start? Firstly, stepping through the front door and being wowed by the first impression: beams, exposed stone, panelled walls, stylish modern finishes and light from windows on three sides.

Step into the kitchen and that is another feature room, with space for a breakfast area along another exposed stone wall. A door opens onto the west facing courtyard with garden room to make the most of outside, whatever the weather.

Upstairs the landing is large and there are more beams. The bedrooms are both good doubles and are either end of the cottage. For an older property, it surprisingly has a well appointed en-suite shower room, full bathroom with shower over the bath and the modern cloakroom WC downstairs.

Gillingham is a thriving, historic market town in North Dorset, set within the picturesque Blackmore Vale. Located near the Somerset and Wiltshire borders, it features excellent commuter links (London Waterloo 2 hours), rich historic heritage, and beautiful surrounding countryside. As one of the fastest-growing towns in the region, it provides a great balance of rural charm and modern convenience. Good schools, major supermarkets including Waitrose, local independent shops, and a leisure centre.
