4 bed cottage for sale

The Close, Charlton Marshall DT11

A truly stunning character cottage, with a completely self contained one bedroom annexe set in a tucked away position.


Nestled within a tranquil village setting just moments away from the North Dorset Trailway, this stunning character cottage has been lovingly renovated by the current owners and boasts a separate one-bedroom annex.

The cottage has historically been extended to the side and rear elevation to create spacious and versatile accommodation. The property offers generous off road parking facilities to the front and side of the house and the sizeable garage benefits from light and power points, plus plenty of space to store a vehicle inside.

The front door, with a wooden canopy porch above, opens into the charming entrance hallway which really sets the tone for Cobb Cottage. A doorway gives access into the front snug which has a cosy wood-burning stove. One of the many features of this home is the large, light-filled kitchen/breakfast room which creates a wonderful place to cook, dine and socialise in with friends and family. There is an impressive Rayburn stove to the far end, two separate under counter ovens, a wine cooler, integrated two-drawer dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. The formal dining room is a excellent place for special occasions or could be utilized as a downstairs bedroom.
Another highlight of this home is the charming, dual aspect sitting room which enjoys a large inglenook fireplace which houses the wood-burning stove. Completing the ground floor is a stylish shower room and a well-equipped utility room.

Upstairs, the elegant gallied landing provides access into the three spacious bedrooms and a 'state of the art' family bathroom which has a separate shower cubical. The jacuzzi bathtub features a changing colour spotlight mode and there is bespoke fitted storage, a heating towel rail and an LED mirror with a built-in Bluetooth speaker.

The one-bedroom annex, which is located above the garage, has an enclosed decked veranda. This stylish self-contained accommodation would make a superb home for an independent family member. The open-plan kitchen/living room has been thoughtfully designed to maximise storage and there are fully integrated appliances to include a combination oven, a ceramic hob with a centre extractor system, a built-in washing machine and an integrated fridge/freezer. The double bedroom is serviced by a high specification shower room.

Externally, the delightful rear garden is framed with plant and shrub borders and there is a mature cherry tree. The garden offers a good-sized patio area, an ideal spot to relax on within the summer months, and there is a sizeable timber summer house which could make a fantastic home office or home gym. A secure side gate leads out the gravelled driveway.
Internal inspection goes highly recommended to fully appreciate all this beautiful character home has to offer.
