Property Description
**Agents note planning permission granted P/lbc/2025/07503**
This Grade II listed two-bedroom cottage is superbly situated in the very heart of Dorchester town centre and has recently undergone a programme of thoughtful refurbishment, enhancing both its presentation and day-to-day comfort while retaining its historic charm.
The property enjoys an abundance of character, with a wealth of original features throughout, complemented by new carpets, a newly fitted kitchen, and fresh redecoration throughout, resulting in a bright, well-presented home ready for immediate occupation.
Externally, the cottage benefits from a private rear courtyard garden.
Situation
The property offers the opportunity to live in an exceptionally convenient position within the county town of Dorchester. Steeped in history, Dorchester occupies a central location along the Jurassic Coastline and is renowned for its period architecture, all set amongst beautiful surrounding countryside.
The town provides a wide range of shopping and social facilities, including a cinema, County Museum, leisure centre, Borough Gardens, and an excellent selection of public houses and restaurants. Major local employers include Dorset County Hospital and Dorset County Council. Dorchester also benefits from mainline rail links to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, together with regular bus services to surrounding towns.
Sitting Room
The spacious sitting room is filled with natural light via a front-aspect secondary glazed window. The room showcases a wealth of character, including exposed original beams and a feature fireplace with inset gas fire, creating a warm and inviting focal point.
Additional features include a wall-mounted radiator, telephone and television points, and stairs rising to the first floor with a useful storage cupboard beneath.
Kitchen
The kitchen is accessed via a hallway from the sitting room and has been recently refitted, offering a modern yet sympathetic finish. It comprises a range of wall and base units with wood block work surfaces, a Belfast sink with mixer tap and drainer, and integrated electric oven and four-ring gas hob.
There is space provided for a fridge, freezer, and slimline dishwasher. The room benefits from part-tiled walls, a rear-aspect window allowing in natural light, and a part-glazed door leading directly to the rear courtyard garden.
Shower Room
Located on the ground floor and accessed via the rear hallway, the shower room is fitted with a modern suite comprising a low-level WC, wash hand basin, and shower. The walls are part tiled, and the room benefits from a wall-mounted radiator and a front-aspect secondary glazed window providing natural light.
Bedroom One
The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned L-shaped room, offering excellent practicality alongside character. The room benefits from two double built-in wardrobes, providing plentiful storage, and has been newly carpeted as part of the recent refurbishment.
There is a wall-mounted radiator and a front-aspect secondary glazed window, allowing for good levels of natural light.
Bedroom Two
The second bedroom is a comfortable and versatile space, also benefiting from new carpeting. The room features a built-in wardrobe which houses the wall-mounted combination boiler, along with a wall-mounted radiator and a front-aspect secondary glazed window providing natural light.
Garden
To the rear of the property is an enclosed courtyard garden, laid to paving for ease of maintenance. This private outdoor space provides an ideal area for seating or potted planting, offering a peaceful retreat despite the property’s central location
