A charming and well appointed detached cottage style house together with a detached cottage annexe, set in extensive gardens and grounds occupying a lovely secluded setting with far reaching views. EPC Band D.

The Property - Woodhayes is a charming well appointed detached cottage style house together with detached cottage annexe, set in extensive gardens and grounds in a lovely secluded and elevated setting with far reaching views. The original property was built in 1946 in a charming Arts and Crafts style, having rendered and colour washed elevations under a thatched roof.

Under the current ownership since 2005, the property and annexe have been subject to extensive refurbishment and alteration. A large two storey extension was added to the main house 8 years ago. The refurbishment has been carried out to a very high standard and in a contemporary style although sympathetic with the original design.

The many impressive features include solid oak sealed unit windows, oil fired central heating (part underfloor), porcelain floor tiles, quality well equipped kitchen with Neff appliances, large garden/family room again with oak windows and a fixed insulated roof, polished limestone fireplace with woodburner, quality bathroom and shower room fittings with Italian tiles and bespoke windows.

The accommodation is very well presented and tastefully decorated in neutral colours, facing principally south taking advantage of the lovely views over the grounds, over Bridport and the surrounding countryside. Every room has a view.

Briefly the accommodation extends to -

Woodhayes - Ground floor: oak framed entrance lobby with oak door, hall, cloakroom, living room, large open plan L-shaped kitchen/dining/family room, garden room, utility.
First floor: landing, principle bedroom suite - dressing room, lobby with large shoe cupboard, large bedroom and ensuite shower room - two further double bedrooms, bathroom/shower room.
