Desirable village location with views of St. Mary’s Church
Charming and deceptively spacious four-bedroom Grade II Listed cottage with period features throughout, large south-facing garden and views of St. Mary’s Church – nestled in the heart of this popular village.
The Property
Priory Cottage is a charming and characterful Grade II Listed cottage, part thatched and part tiled, nestled in the heart of Charminster. Full of period features and natural light, the cottage offers a surprising sense of space throughout.
You enter into a generous hallway that leads into a beautifully bright, dual-aspect sitting room with stone mullioned windows and an attractive stone fireplace. To the left is a versatile dining room—also ideal as a second reception room—featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace with a bread oven.
The L-shaped kitchen is filled with natural light and fitted with shaker-style units, a walk-in pantry, and lovely views across the garden. A fourth bedroom at the far end of the house provides excellent flexibility and is currently used as a study, with a modern shower room conveniently located nearby.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a spacious dual-aspect double, enjoying views over the rear garden and towards St. Mary’s Church at the front.
Outside
The large, south-facing garden is mainly laid to lawn and backs onto open meadows. A gravelled, enclosed side yard provides additional outdoor space and gated access to the front. Well-stocked borders, mature shrubs, and established trees create a peaceful and private setting.
Situation
The property is located in the picturesque village of Charminster which is home to a first school, shop/sub post office, two pubs, a pretty Norman church and a village hall.
Charminster is just a couple of miles from Dorset’s historic county town, Dorchester, which has many restaurants, over 400 shops, various leisure facilities, a number of highly regarded schools and the renowned Dorset County Hospital. A regular bus service operates through the village of Charminster and Dorchester provides rail links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads.
There are numerous sporting facilities and leisure pursuits in the area including Golf at Dorchester (Came Down), Sherborne and Yeovil. The Jurassic Coastline is a few miles to the south with some sandy beaches, outstanding walks and the opportunity to enjoy a variety of water sports. The Iron Age hill-fort of Maiden Castle is just four miles from Charminster and boasts breathtaking views of the countryside.
