East Stoke

COTTAGE SET IN RURAL LOCATION

Nestled in an idyllic rural setting and surrounded by open countryside, this delightful semi-detached cottage offers a rare opportunity to enjoy rural living while remaining just a short distance from the historic market town of Wareham. Situated in the charming hamlet of East Stoke, the property enjoys beautiful far-reaching views across neighbouring fields, creating a truly tranquil retreat.

Wareham is a Saxon walled market town on the banks of the River Frome, with a wide range of amenities including shops, public houses, restaurants and cinema, with the train station providing a direct line to London Waterloo.

Access to the cottage is by a right of way in front of the neighbouring property with single gate leading up to a welcoming entrance porch, providing the perfect space for coats and shoes. From here, a door opens into the characterful sitting/dining room, a warm and inviting space featuring a beautiful fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating an attractive focal point. Stairs rise to the first floor, while the room offers ample space for both comfortable seating and family dining.

The kitchen is well-appointed with a range of floor and wall-mounted units, complemented by an eye-level double oven, electric hob with cooker hood above and an integrated fridge/freezer. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room, offering additional storage, further fitted units and space and plumbing for household appliances. A door from the utility room provides direct access to the rear garden.

The ground floor also benefits from a generously sized principal bedroom, positioned to the rear of the property. Double doors open directly onto the patio, allowing you to wake each morning to uninterrupted rural views across the surrounding countryside. Completing the ground floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower over, wash hand basin, WC and an airing cupboard.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the second bedroom benefiting from two built-in wardrobes, providing excellent storage.

Outside, the property is set within delightful established gardens of just under 1/4 acre that make the most of the stunning countryside backdrop. A generous patio provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining, while the established vegetable garden offers an opportunity for keen gardeners to cultivate their own produce. A charming timber summerhouse provides a peaceful retreat, and freestanding solar panels are thoughtfully positioned within the garden. Further benefits include double glazing and gas-fired central heating.

Combining period charm, well-balanced accommodation and an exceptional rural setting, this enchanting cottage presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a character home surrounded by Dorset's beautiful countryside.
