About
Believed to date back to the early 1700s, Honeysuckle Cottage is a delightful Grade II Listed thatched home offering characterful accommodation arranged over three floors.
Lovingly cared for by the current owners for the past 27 years, the cottage retains a wealth of period charm whilst providing comfortable modern living.
Entering through the front door of the cottage, there is immediately a sense of the cottage's history, with deep walls and traditional proportions creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
A CLOAKROOM is conveniently positioned nearby. The DINING ROOM sits at the heart of the home, creating a welcoming space in which to gather with family and friends.
Conveniently positioned just beyond the KITCHEN, it is perfectly suited to both everyday dining and more relaxed entertaining.
The hallway leads onwards to the adjacent SITTING ROOM, a charming reception room enjoying an outlook to the front and centred around a traditional open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the seasons.
The KITCHEN lies to the rear of the cottage and is well fitted with a range of cupboards and work preparation surfaces.
The sink is ideally positioned beneath the window overlooking the garden, whilst there is space for a fridge/freezer together with two further appliances, such as a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Alternatively, a dishwasher could be installed in place of one of the appliances, subject to extending the existing plumbing.
A breakfast bar adds to the practicality of the room, creating an informal dining space for everyday use.
Venturing to the first floor, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a particularly generous room benefitting from fitted storage and an EN-SUITE BATHROOM comprising bath, wash hand basin and W.C.
BEDROOM TWO is another well-proportioned double room with an extensive range of fitted wardrobes providing excellent storage, including a generous airing cupboard.
Completing the first-floor accommodation is a separate CLOAKROOM conveniently positioned off the landing. The second floor provides wonderfully flexible accommodation.
BEDROOM THREE is an impressive room extending over 20 feet in length and enjoying a wealth of character beneath the original beams of the roofline.
A SHOWER ROOM comprising a shower enclosure, wash hand basin and W.C. serves this level.
Completing the accommodation is BEDROOM FOUR, currently arranged as a STUDY, offering flexibility as a home office, hobby room, guest bedroom or additional sleeping accommodation.
Oil-fired central heating and a pressurised hot water system provide modern convenience throughout this charming Dorset cottage.
Outside To the rear, the property enjoys a charming walled courtyard garden providing a sheltered and private space for outdoor dining, entertaining and container planting.
Beyond the cottage lies a substantial double garage, offering excellent storage, workshop potential or secure parking, together with additional off-road parking for two further vehicles.
To the front, Honeysuckle Cottage benefits from an attractive outlook across the historic Roman road and protected conservation land beyond.
Mature trees and landscaped surroundings create a wonderfully peaceful setting, while the absence of development opposite helps preserve the cottage's delightful rural character.
The ridge to the main thatched roof and the tiled roof over the kitchen were both renewed in 2022/23, further enhancing this charming cottage and providing reassurance for future owners.
