STUNNING CHARACTER COTTAGE IN PRIME RURAL LOCATION ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF WAREHAM

Welcome to Horseshoe Cottage, a delightful character cottage nestled in the idyllic rural location of West Modern. The village, which has no through traffic, lies within splendid unspoilt countryside in the ownership of the Charborough Estate. The market town of Wareham is within easy reach and offers an excellent range of facilities, together with Poole and Wimborne also only a short drive away. From Wareham or Poole there is a regular fast train service direct to London Waterloo.

This charming property offers a peaceful retreat, surrounded by stunning countryside and boasting a range of wonderful features.

Situated on a generous plot, Horseshoe Cottage is enveloped by a large, well-maintained garden, providing a haven for relaxation and outdoor activities. For those seeking additional space, there is also the option to acquire a shepherds hut through a separate negotiation, perfect for use as a private retreat or guest accommodation.

The cottage itself comprises three inviting bedrooms, offering ample space for family, guests, or home office needs. A tastefully designed bath/shower room provides a haven for relaxation, complete with modern fixtures and fittings.

The heart of this home lies in its charming kitchen/breakfast room, featuring a traditional Rayburn oven, infusing the space with warmth and character. This is a wonderful setting to indulge in culinary delights or enjoy a leisurely breakfast with loved ones.

The lounge/dining room is a focal point of comfort and relaxation, boasting a cosy log burner that adds both warmth and ambiance during the colder months. This versatile space provides ample room for entertaining guests or simply unwinding with a good book.

A modern sitting/garden room adds a touch of contemporary flair to the cottage, with exposed oak beams and a bespoke Italian log burner. This light-filled space invites the outdoors in, creating a seamless connection between the interior and the enchanting garden.

Beyond the cottage, the property offers a range of outbuildings, providing valuable storage or potential for conversion, subject to the necessary permissions. This presents a unique opportunity for those seeking additional space or the chance to create a bespoke workspace or hobby area.

For those with a love for nature or an interest in smallholding, the option to rent an additional paddock and separate garden plot of just over 2 1/2 acres is available, increasing the total plot size to just over 3 1/4 acres. This allows residents to indulge in gardening, horticulture, or even keep a few animals, providing a fulfilling and rewarding country lifestyle.

Additional features include mains drainage, double glazing and oil fired central heating.
