A handsome period cottage built of brick and stone, with historic extensions, set in a good garden on the edge of this well regarded village. In addition is a useful 1,368sqft (127sqm) workshop / former garage with electric roller doors to the road.

The Dwelling

This double fronted cottage has a good balance of accommodation over two floors only. The dining room links into rear lobby / pantry, possibly the original kitchen, which then leads into the sizable kitchen. To the rear is a large utility room with guest wc and access to the garden and also links to a boot room with access to the garage / workshop side door.

The workshop / former garage encompasses some 1,368sqft / 127sqm with high ceilings throughout. There is an electric roller double width door fronting the road. The newer end has an insulated ceiling and flooring with double glazed windows, ideal as an office area or useful as another working area.

Accommodation

See floor plan: A sensible layout with excellent ancillary space. The workshop has been added on to recently creating additional workshop or office area.

Outside

The gardens are undoubtedly a fine feature of the property with scope to add content or remain as good level lawns but ultimately they could be a stunning cottage garden. Mostly laid to lawn and bordered by mature hedging, the front of the house faces south and the patio area is to the western side, accessed from the utility room. Parking for at least 2 cars has been created off the highway at the end of the garden.

Situation

Buckhorn Weston is a delightful North Dorset village very close to the Dorset/Somerset border and within 4 miles of Gillingham and about 5 miles from Wincanton. The village has a well-regarded pub and a church. The towns of Gillingham and Wincanton have a wide range of shops and services for everyday needs with Waitrose in Gillingham and a large Morrisons in Wincanton.

The A303 is about 4 miles to the north and A30 is about 2 miles to the south giving excellent road access to London and the West Country.
