Set in the peaceful village of Winterborne Houghton, this charming two bedroom detached thatched cottage enjoys a generous plot, mature garden and uninterrupted views across the Dorset countryside.
The property is approached through wooden five-bar gates, opening onto a good-sized driveway to the front and side. A side entrance leads into a useful boot room, with a handy utility cupboard providing additional storage.
The well-presented kitchen has an integrated oven and hob, dishwasher and a sink positioned to make the most of the garden outlook. From here, the spacious sitting/dining room provides the main living space, with plenty of room to relax and dine. A feature fireplace with inset wood burner adds a cosy focal point, alongside a further ornamental fireplace.
Upstairs, the landing showcases the cottage's attractive exposed beams. The main bedroom is a generous double with the added benefit of a walk-in wardrobe that could also provide useful home office space. There is a second double bedroom and a sizeable bathroom with a three-piece suite and shower over the bath.
Outside, the mature garden is a real highlight, with open countryside views creating a lovely backdrop. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a patio area providing a spot to sit, enjoy the sunshine and take in the outlook.
A detached garage sits to the side of the property, while the driveway provides convenient off-road parking.
With its thatched character, versatile living space, generous garden and peaceful village setting, this cottage offers a great balance of traditional charm and everyday practicality.
