BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED & EXTENDED FAMILY HOME WITH LARGE GARDEN & A GATED GRAVELLED DRIVEWAY - MUST BE SEEN

Nestled within Durweston, this exquisite character property has been significantly extended and beautifully renovated throughout by the current owners, to create a truly impressive family home. This pretty Dorset village offers a parish church, a popular primary school and there is a fantastic village hall with a playing field. There are also excellent walking routes from the property. The house has secure fencing and paving which leads to the formal front door. There is also a useful side gate which gives access into the main garden. Internally, the spacious hallway provides plenty of room for hanging coats and bags and to the far-end is an understairs storage cupboard. There is access into the two reception rooms and all the original doors for the cottage have been lovingly restored. The second reception room is currently set up as a home office, but this space also makes a great snug or children's play room. The main sitting room has been extended to the rear aspect and this large living space, which has a cosy multi-fuel stove, also enjoys views over the rear garden. One of the many features of this home is the stunning, dual aspect, kitchen/dining/family room which creates a superb area for cooking, dining and relaxing in with friends and family. There is a vaulted ceiling to the dining area and a bi-folding door which opens out onto the patio. The kitchen has an extensive selection of storage cabinets and drawers and the worktop extends to create a sociable breakfast-bar. There is a ceramic sink and integrated appliances to include a dishwasher, microwave and a wine-cooler. The rear door has a tiled canopy porch. In addition to the ground floor is a sizeable utility room, which is where the gas boiler is located and the cloakroom is accessed from this space. From the sitting room, a staircase leads to the first floor which provides three double bedrooms and a high specification family bathroom, which is complete with a built-in shower cubical, a freestanding bath tub and fitted vanity storage. The principal bedroom has a feature fireplace and a built-in wardrobe and bedroom two also has a period fireplace and all these rooms have been decorated in soft neutral tones. There are also some far reaching countryside views from the first floor. Externally the property has a gated, gravelled driveway which is accessed from Water Lane and the sizeable lawn area has an enclosed chicken / duck pen to the far corner. There is a timber summer house, a good-sized patio area beyond the house and a further decked seating area. The property also has an attached brick out-building which is great for garden storage. Please note this property has a flying freehold with the neighbouring property.
