A delightful two-bedroom end of terrace period cottage situated close to the heart of the desirable village of Milborne Port, beautifully presented throughout with charming cottage garden.

Approached through an ornate wrought-iron pedestrian gate, the cottage enjoys a pretty frontage framed by natural hedging and space for pots to add seasonal colour. The sense of care and character continues inside, where the current owner has meticulously updated the property to a high standard in recent years. A generous hallway sets the tone for the rest of the home, leading into an open-plan sitting and dining room, a dual aspect space brimming with character. Original stripped floorboards run throughout, and a decorative arch subtly defines the two areas while maintaining an easy, natural flow. The sitting room is a wonderfully cosy space centred around a multi-fuel stove, with a sash window to the front and an inviting atmosphere ideal for quiet evenings. The dining area is fitted with bespoke cabinetry and offers ample room for a dining table; this area is perfect for relaxed meals or entertaining.

It features Fired Earth base and wall units with wooden worktops, Inset Belfast sink, Electric Everhot cooker, Bosch integral dishwasher and under-counter space for fridge and freezer.
A garden room extends the living space further, offering a delightful spot to relax with French doors opening onto the garden and framing the greenery beyond.
The first-floor hosts two generous double bedrooms, a striking bathroom, a useful storage cupboard and access to the attic via a pull-down wooden ladder. The loft offers clear potential for conversion, subject to the necessary consents, adding further versatility to the home. The main bedroom is a calm and elegant retreat, enhanced by an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and a leafy outlook to the front. The second bedroom is another comfortable double, filled with natural light and ideal for guests, family or a dedicated workspace.
The bathroom is a true highlight of the cottage, effortlessly blending character with a sense of quiet luxury. A freestanding roll-top slipper bath takes centre stage, complemented by a separate shower with a rainwater shower head, WC and pedestal basin. Vibrant turquoise part-tiled walls add a distinctive splash of colour, balanced by neutral tiled flooring.
