About this property

  • Double fronted stone built house

  • Elegant living space

  • Low maintenance garden

  • Quiet village location

  • No onward chain

A well formed double fronted house, built some 35 years ago of local stone with mullioned double glazed windows, in a central village location.

The Dwelling

An aesthetically pleasing double fronted house with impressive reception and bedroom space. The entrance hallway gives way to the drawing room, kitchen, office and snug directly off from there. The drawing room is especially elegant with a fine Bressummer beam over the open fireplace. This links to the dining room and then flows through to the kitchen. The kitchen has a good array of wall and floor units with the usual appliances and has vistas and also access to the garden.

Back through to the hallway is a guest wc and then onto the study. The stairs lead up and then divide to a good landing with 2 double bedrooms to the left and a family bathroom with separate shower. Along the other half is the principal suite with en suite shower room and a large walk in wardrobe. Completing upstairs is a further, 4th, double bedroom with views over the garden

Accommodation

See floor plan: In essence, a wide, double fronted house in an excellent village. Bakery Cottage has a highly manageable small garden, ostensibly south facing with a high wall protecting from the north east.

Outside

The garden is set out in effectively two parts with the larger part being an enclosed cloister style garden with pergola and rose / shrub borders surrounding the patio area. This is a delightful spot with the advantage of being easy to maintain and sits above the patio area directly off the kitchen and dining room. Ideal for al fresco dining or entertaining in a sheltered spot. The garage is a useful size at the head of the shared driveway with parking to the front. A side gate gives access to the village lane, West Street.

Situation

Kington Magna is a quiet village set within the Blackmore Vale. The village has a strong community with church and village hall hosting events during the year. The village is only 4 miles from Gillingham, which has Mainline Railway linking to London (Waterloo), supermarkets such as Waitrose and Mole Valley Country Stores . The A303 is some 5 miles to the north for road access to the East or the West Country.
