About
A rare opportunity to buy a lovely little detached cottage built circa 1850 with many original features.
Main Description - Corner Cottage – A Charming 19th Century Detached Home Full of Character Steeped in charm and dating back to circa 1850, Corner Cottage is a delightful detached period home brimming with character.
Original timber beams feature in several rooms, and the property still retains two original internal doors—one from the mid-19th century and another over 100 years old—adding to its authentic appeal.
Ideally positioned in a desirable non-estate location in Ferndown, this unique cottage offers two double bedrooms, two reception rooms, and a bright conservatory overlooking the west-facing enclosed rear garden.
Allocated parking is conveniently located to the front of the property.
The cottage benefits from a modern gas-fired combination boiler and a full central heating system, ensuring warmth and comfort throughout the year.
You enter via the sunroom/conservatory, a versatile space with double-glazed windows and a radiator, making it suitable for year-round use.
This leads through to the welcoming dining/reception room, which provides access to the hallway and the cosy living room.
The living room enjoys a view over the front garden and features a charming fireplace.
While currently sealed and capped at roof level to prevent damp, the fireplace could easily be reinstated to accommodate an open fire or wood-burning stove, subject to reinstatement of the chimney.
From the inner hallway, stairs rise to the first floor, and there is a wall-mounted gas-fired combi boiler.
A well-appointed ground floor shower room features fully tiled walls and flooring, a corner shower enclosure, pedestal washbasin, WC, and a window for natural ventilation.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern base and wall units with roll-top work surfaces.
There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, as well as room for a cooker and fridge-freezer. Dual-aspect windows to the front and side bring in plenty of natural light.
On the first floor, a cloakroom provides a second WC for added convenience. Two double bedrooms sit on either side of the landing, each benefiting from bespoke fitted wardrobes.
Outside, the fully enclosed west-facing rear garden measures approximately 35 feet wide by 20 feet deep and is mainly laid to lawn with a small patio area—ideal for enjoying afternoon and evening sunshine.
A garden shed and side access path lead to the quaint front garden and the allocated parking space.
Corner Cottage is ideally located just a short distance from a local convenience store and bus stop, with Ferndown town centre approximately 0.8 miles away. EPC rating - D
