Description

"A charming little cottage situated in the picturesque, ancient hamlet of Hewood near Thorncombe in the western corner of Dorset. Hewood consists of a small number of cottages, houses and farm buildings set around a central green about 1.5 miles from the village of Thorncombe and just under 10 miles from the seaside resort of Lyme Regis.
Built in the 1600 s we believe , the cottage is Grade II listed as is the whole of Hewood and thatched with white washed walls. On entering the property, into the pretty sitting room, the large Inglenook fireplace takes centre stage. Fitted with a wood burning stove making the cottage very cosy in colder months. Beside the fireplace is a short passage with steps down to a little kitchen, which has a stable door to a small enclosed garden. There is a stone outbuilding in the garden offering generous storage area and offering the potential to create a second bedroom subject to planning and listed buildings consent . Stairs from the sitting room lead up to a good sized bedroom with pretty little windows on both sides and a door from here opens to a generous bathroom with roll top bath.

In addition to the wood burner, there are a number of electric heaters and the property has private drainage to a new sewage treatment plant . For many years, the owners of the property have been using a parking bay just opposite the cottage, which provides space for one vehicle. The property can be purchased to include most of the furnishings if required subject to negotiation .
N.B. The property is successfully let through Airbnb. Therefore, viewings will be organised around the letting schedule.
