The Dwelling
Apple Tree Cottage is a charming home blending many character features with modern living, which has been extended and includes a separate detached annexe which is ideal for multi generations or for holiday rentals. The heart of the cottage is the extended kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga (oil) set into a chimney breast as a focal point to the room and French doors leading to the beautiful garden and terrace. The kitchen area comprises of a range of base units, a pantry and is adjoined by a utility room and cloak room. The sitting room has a cosy feel with low ceilings and wooden beams making it ideal for winter nights with a lovely wood burner as a focal point. A further reception room includes French doors and would make a good study. Completing the ground floor is a small bedroom with a useful ensuite shower. The master bedroom is a spacious dual aspect room overlooking the garden and surrounding countryside, with a range of built in storage and a modern ensuite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms would all accommodate double beds and there is a family shower room.
The Annexe
Set away from the cottage is a self contained detached annexe which would make an ideal home or potentially a holiday let. Constructed of traditional materials befitting the neighbouring cottage but enjoying modern living and fittings. There is a large open plan kitchen/sitting/dining room, which is a very light room boasting two sets of French doors to the garden. Two bedrooms are situated on the ground floor with a shower room. Rising to the first floor the staircase opens to a large bedroom with elevated views of the garden and a modern bathroom.
Outside
The property is approached by a gravel driveway providing parking for both the cottage and the annexe which includes a single garage and a wood store. The garden is a particular feature enjoying a good degree of privacy from established hedgerows and trees. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with many colourful well stocked flower beds and there is a sunny terrace adjoining the cottage for outside dining. The garden has several sheds for storage and a part constructed shepherds hut.

The Georgian Market Town of Blandford Forum is 7 miles approx., Wimborne Minster is 8 miles approx., Poole and Bournemouth are respectively 14 and 19 miles approx.
