The Property
This well presented end of terrace cottage with two double bedrooms is located in the quiet village of Toller Porcorum, located ideally for access to both Bridport and Dorchester, plus within 2.5miles of Maiden Newton for mainline trains.
Entering the property you are welcomed by a sitting/dining room with two large windows to the front making it a bright and light space. The room itself centres around a gas wood effect fireplace with character wooden beams on the ceiling. There is space to the left hand side for a table and chairs whilst the seating area is to the right, along with stairs rising to the first floor.
Beyond the sitting/dining room is another reception room which can be utilised as a small dining space or as a study, ideal for someone looking to work from home, with a rear facing window looking over the courtyard. Double doors access the kitchen, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units with a work surface over, with a porcelain sink and space for necessary appliances. At the end of the kitchen is a small foyer, with the cupboard to the right housing a modern combi boiler. Off here is a door to the garden and access to the bathroom. The bathroom itself is a contemporary white suite with part tiled walls, comprising a wc, wash hand basin and a bath with a shower over.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms, both of which benefit from having windows to the front of the property and views over fields. The attic is insulated, fully boarded with light and a ladder.
Outside
There is a courtyard area immediately adjoining the rear of the property, with a few steps rising to the main body of the garden which is predominantly laid to lawn. The garden is south facing and has sun all day. There is a large summerhouse, patio area for outdoor dining and then a graveled section which provides good utility space for an additional shed, wood store and also houses the calor gas bottles. There is rear access to the property and garden via a path behind adjacent properties.
