A fabulous opportunity to purchase an attractive stone fronted detached family home with four generously sized bedrooms, enjoying countryside views and located in the desirable village of Motcombe. The property forms part of a small development of just ten houses and is ideally located within easy reach of all the village's amenities. Motcombe enjoys a good village community with church, primary school and village hall, which hosts many events and there is also the community run shop with post office and café. In addition, there is also a garage and The Coppleridge Inn that serves food and has accommodation. The village is well placed, in between Shaftesbury and Gillingham, which has a mainline train station.
The property is just three years old and has been finished to an exemplary standard, having been the show home for the development and is immaculately and stylishly presented to the market. The property enjoys a double aspect sitting room with fireplace and wood burner, perfect for colder months and creates a warm and cosy atmosphere. If you are working from home there are two options - inside there is a study and outside, there is a large insulated cabin, that offers multi-functional usage. The open plan kitchen and dining room provides plenty of room for family gatherings or entertaining friends and is fitted with a range of soft closing modern units and some built n appliances. From the first floor there are countryside views and often, if you are quiet and patient, you might even spot a deer and her fawn. Outside, there is parking for three cars plus the garage and a fully enclosed garden with high privacy and a paved seating area - perfect for alfresco dining.
This delightful home will go a long way to accommodate the needs of many potential buyers and must be viewed to fully appreciate all that it has to offer.
