Cottage for sale in Sturminster Newton DT10, 2 Bedroom

An endearing semi attached stone cottage with an enchanted and magical rear garden and boasting an ideal location just a hop, skip and jump to the town centre. The town caters well for every day needs, with an award winning independent supermarket, family run butchers, chemist and highly rated primary school. There is also a dentist surgery. We believe that the cottage dates to the mid 1850's and was at one time part of the adjoining property. The cottage has been a much loved home to our sellers for nearly ten years during, which time they have maintained and improved the property to a high standard with a new electrical consumer unit and power shower installed. The cottage retains many character features, such as, an original door from the porch, cottage style windows and deep sills, exposed floorboards and ceiling beams and a wonderful inglenook fireplace with alcove and wood burner that has been converted to gas. The property also benefits from gas fired central heating via radiators. A viewing is essential to really appreciate the ambience of this charming cottage and the potential of the wonderful garden.
