"A truly fantastic Grade II listed property dating back to the 15th Century, with an enormous amount of character and charm, situated in the heart of one of West Dorset s prettiest and most sought after villages.
THE PROPERTY
Tucked away in the heart of the most popular village of Burton Bradstock, first glimpses of this wonderful property are most impressive, with its attractive fa ade constructed of local stone under a pretty thatched roof.
Dating back to the early 15th Century, this house has been in the same ownership for the last 30 years and has been lovingly looked after and is justifiably Grade II listed of historical and architectural importance. On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm and space, with a large hall with fantastic flagstone flooring and original wooden panelling. This leads perfectly into a very well proportioned and good sized sitting room, with original inglenook fireplace and open fire, exposed wooden beans and an original window seat. There is also a stone staircase leading up to the first floor. Also on the ground floor is a kitchen which could perhaps be extended out subject to planning to the end dining room, which has a superb central fireplace and wood burning stove, two window seats, wooden flooring and direct access to the gardens. This could result in a fantastic open plan modern kitchen with a utility alongside. There is also a garden room, a large utility room and separate cloakroom.
The lovely bedrooms are situated on the first floor with a very large landing and sitting area. The three bedrooms are all bursting with character with one having an adjoining WC. There is also a separate family bathroom.
The delightful garden lies to the side and the rear of the property with a lawned area and well stocked borders, and a raised paved terrace, an ideal place for a gin & tonic after a long day at the beach. There is also a green house, log store, and two more external stores. The garden is private and rather magical. There is a small grassed area to the front of the property on the Eastern side that could potentially lend itself to a parking space for one vehicle if required. There is also a single garage available by separate negotiation in the village.
All in all, this is a truly fantastic property in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
