The first of the two reception rooms is positioned to the front of the home and features an inviting wood burner with internal French Doors leading to the family room that overlooks the rear garden and countryside beyond. The family room also features a large pyramid skylight to create an open and airy room with a second set of French Doors leading onto the patio. Also forming part of the extension to the home is the formal dining room that again offers flexibility given its proximity to ground floor shower room of which is a modern suite, tiled in finish.

Outside
Front: A gated driveway allows for plentiful off-road parking whilst a garage and additional free-standing shed provide useful storage solutions. A sizeable front lawn and patio create differing seating areas, all edged by an established hedgerow which provides privacy whilst further established trees and shrubbery offer colour throughout the year. The wraparound garden continues to the rear with access to both sides of the home.
Rear: Immediately backing onto open countryside, the rear garden is level flat giving a multitude of potential uses. Currently, a patio and shingled area runs the width of the plot giving the ideal footings for an outdoor dining set and greenhouse before the remainder is laid to lawn with periodic fruit trees and blossoming trees planted throughout.
Location
The delightful, rural village of Motcombe sits on the northern edge of Shaftesbury and benefits from a locally run popular community shop, a memorial/village hall which hosts a variety of activities, a traditional country pub and a bus service that runs to and from Shaftesbury - Gillingham.
On the outskirts of Motcombe is one of the county's most prestigious preparatory schools in Port Regis which has been rated Excellent by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.
The nearby town of Shaftesbury is famed for the iconic cobbled street of Gold Hill and rich history going back to the times of King Alfred, whilst an eclectic mix of independent shops brings a vibrancy to the town.
