Welcome to Walnut Tree Cottage in Kingsley Paddock, a tranquil, exclusive collection of just five individual residences tucked away off a private, gated road close to heart of this vibrant village.

As soon as the front door opens, it is immediately apparent that the house is stylishly presented and both light and airy. The inviting ENTRANCE HALL is well proportioned and would readily accommodate some hall furniture. The staircase elegantly rises to the first floor, whilst discreetly positioned is the CLOAKROOM with W.C. and wash hand basin. The SITTING ROOM is a wonderful light reception room with windows overlooking the front private courtyard drive, whilst French doors to the patio perfectly frame the view over the walled rear garden. Centred around the brick fireplace with bressummer style timber beam this engaging room has a Contura™ wood stove for those cooler evenings. The separate DINING ROOM lies adjacent to the kitchen and similarly enjoys views over the rear garden and effortlessly accommodates a dining table and chairs with room for further furniture. The KITCHEN /BREAKFAST ROOM has the sink ideally positioned under the window providing a delightful view over the garden. There is an array of wall mounted and floor-based cupboards, with generous food preparation work surfaces. A free-standing island unit provides for still more storage and forms a breakfast bar for casual dining. Integral Neff™ appliances include an electric hob with fume hood over, oven, fridge, and dishwasher, an additional appliance space has plumbing. On a practical note, concealed from view is the Worcester™ boiler. Neatly off set from Kitchen is the SNUG, a convivial area with plentiful natural light courtesy of the two windows overlooking the courtyard drive and the side garden. Off the kitchen is the BOOT ROOM with stable style door to outside and provides for coat hanging and boots after that country walk. In addition, there is additional plumbing for a washing machine.

Venturing upstairs doesn’t disappoint, a large and well naturally lit landing with generous sized window to the front whilst doors radiate out to the bedrooms and the bathroom. Also located here is the airing cupboard and access to the roof void with fitted ladder, light and part boarded loft. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM SUITE comprises bedroom with ensuite shower room and separate dressing room (repurposed from bedroom four). The bedroom overlooks the rear garden, the village scape and has far-reaching country views beyond. A built-in cupboard largely shelved provides for storage. The ENSUITE comprises corner shower cubicle, vanity unit with wash basin and W.C. Double opening doors lead to the DRESSING ROOM (formerly bedroom four) with return door to the landing. Here there is a range of free-standing wardrobes and plentiful room for a dressing table. BEDROOM TWO and BEDROOM THREE are both comfortable double bedrooms, the guest bedroom also enjoying the captivating vista offered by the principal bedroom whilst bedroom three lies to the front of the residence. Concluding the well-presented and configured accommodation is the BATHROOM, with wash basin, W.C. and bath with shower screen and shower attachment.

Outside
Private timber gates open to reveal a courtyard and generous parking leading on to the double garaging consistence with the residence having brick and flint elevations and with twin up and over doors, power, light and loft storage. The WALLED GARDEN southwest facing rear garden is extremely sunny and sheltered. There are various seating areas including the decking to the strategically placed timber SUMMER HOUSE, (internally pine panelled) – offering a magical spot to unwind whilst surveying the largely arranged to lawn garden with generous borders providing both colour and interest. For those with green fingers, a potting shed is on hand, while the oil storage tank remains discreetly positioned, hidden from view. A pathway leads down the garden and in turn to twin gates and beyond.

Location
Nestled in the ever-popular village of Maiden Newton, this thriving Village lies approximately 8 miles north-west of the county town of Dorchester and some 11 miles from Yeovil. Situated in a valley where the River Hooke joins the River Frome. The village with its welcoming community is particularly well served by a variety of small shops, post office, public house, and petrol station. The thriving, friendly village also has a doctors' surgery, veterinary practice, village hall, primary school and the railway station offering links to various destinations.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on August 10, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
