3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Berrywood Lane, Donhead St. Mary, Shaftesbury, Dorset SP7

Oak Cottage provides over 1,600 sq ft of light-filled accommodation arranged across two floors. The black timber-clad exterior gives the property a contemporary appearance, complemented inside by a clean, neutral décor and an airy, open layout.

The main ground-floor living and entertaining space is the open-plan kitchen, dining room and sitting area, which stretches from the front to the rear, with the kitchen at its heart. There are sleek white fitted units and integrated appliances, including a double oven and an induction hob, as well as a central island with a breakfast bar. To one side of the kitchen, the dining area welcomes plenty of natural light through its south and east-facing aspects, which feature French doors and panoramic windows, as well as a large ceiling lantern skylight. To the other side of the kitchen lies the comfortable sitting area, which has a fireplace with a logburner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. There is also a useful utility room for further home storage and appliances, as well as two well-presented double bedrooms and a shower room with a heated chrome towel rail and a walk-in shower.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is generously proportioned, with built-in wardrobes and access to eaves storage. It also benefits from a large en suite bathroom with spa-like features, including a walk-in shower and a freestanding bathtub.

Further accommodation comes in the form of the detached, cabin-style annexe with its attractive timber-clad internal walls. Entering through the double doors at the front there is a kitchen and dining room, while further double doors lead to the 22ft double bedroom at the rear, with its WC and open shower room.

Agents Note: There is a small section of the entrance driveway that runs down the side of the property which does not lie within the curtilage of Oak Cottage and therefore, does not belong to the property. However, a formal Statutory Declaration is in place which can be requested from the selling agent.
Agents Note:

At the entrance to the home, a five-bar wooden gate opens onto the gravel driveway providing access and parking for several vehicles. Stairs lead to an area of lawn at the side of the house, with a pathway leading onwards to the front door. The garden is mostly situated at the rear, and features a patio for al fresco
dining with a lawn beyond, enclosed by high timber fencing for a sense of privacy. Towards the end of the garden, the annexe has its own private patio and area of lawn.

The property is set in the picturesque village of Donhead St. Mary, in an idyllic rural position in the heart of the Cranbourne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering stunning views across the surrounding countryside. The village has a parish church and a village hall, while the nearby village of Ludwell provides several local amenities, including a post office, village store, local pub and primary school. Three and a half miles to the west, the historic market town of Shaftesbury offers a good choice of shops, supermarkets and leisure facilities. Five miles away, Tisbury offers further amenities and schooling, as well as a mainline station, providing direct services to London Waterloo. Historic Salisbury is 18 miles away, with its wealth of shopping and leisure facilities. Local road connections include the A350, which provides easy access to the A303.
