This beautiful 17th Century Grade II Listed cottage, oozing with charm and character, is solidly built of brick and stone and is sitting, ready and waiting, for a new owner to make it their home.
Stepping into the HALL from the pretty frontage there is handy space for coats and boots. As you open the inner door to the SITTING ROOM, your eyes are drawn to the fabulous inglenook fireplace. The original bread oven is still in situ, reminding you of times gone by. This really is a lovely large and comfortable space, tempting you to spend cosy nights in front of the fire. There is a very useful DINING AREA just to the side of the Sitting Room, which has space for a large family dining table. From here, step into the KITCHEN, which is light and bright and has glorious views of the garden from the window and a door out to the rear garden too. There is plenty of worktop space, ample storage cupboards, and new integrated appliances - washing machine, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.
As is often the way in a Dorset cottage, the BATHROOM is just off a small hall from the kitchen. It is a calm retreat, with natural light and a delightful claw foot bath, imagine soaking away a long hard day!
From a door in the Sitting Room, the stairs take you up to two DOUBLE BEDROOMS. The first is a truly generous Double Bedroom, with a very pretty village outlook and lots of character. There are plenty of storage cupboards too. The second Double Bedroom has a modern En-suite shower room and overlooks the garden and fields to the rear.
Outside
From the kitchen door, the REAR GARDEN opens out to a large Patio with steps up to a lawn and then, on through an arbour, to a second paved area, perfect for entertaining with friends and family, or long relaxing days listening to the sounds of nature. Throughout the garden, it feels like there are separate rooms, with sections of privacy for seating, a pergola for sunnier times, somewhere to have your own BBQ or why not build your own pizza oven?
Towards the rear of the garden and behind fencing, is a dedicated area for a kitchen garden, complete with greenhouse. From the rear of the garden, there are open views to the countryside beyond.
Through a five bar gate there is a parking space and the GARAGE is in a block of three to the side of the cottage.
The cottage has agreed vehicular access to the garage down a private drive. There is also pedestrian access to the rear garden from here.
Location
Winfrith Newburgh is a very popular village lying close to Lulworth Cove, a natural horseshoe shaped harbour forming part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site.
Set in the heart of the Purbecks, its unique beauty is reflected in its status as a designated area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village itself enjoys many amenities including an award-winning village shop and Post Office, public house, church, pre-school and primary school, and an active village hall.
