A fabulous chance to purchase a unique village home that offers extremely flexible room usage and around 2293 sq. ft. (213 sq. m) of living space. The property is presented to the market with the advantage of no onward chain, five double bedrooms, three with en-suite facilities and boasts an ideal position, within reach of the village's amenities and backs onto meadowland where deer may be seen grazing. Motcombe enjoys a good village community with church, primary school and village hall, which hosts many events and there is also the community run shop with post office and café. In addition, there is also a garage and The Coppleridge Inn that serves food and has accommodation. The village is ideally placed in between Shaftesbury and Gillingham, which has a mainline train station. The property has been the very much loved and enjoyed home of our seller for the last thirteen years. During this time it has been well cared for and has benefitted from a first floor conversion to create useful and flexible space with a double bedroom and the garage too has been transformed into useable that could be further developed into an annexe for a dependent relative. The rest of the property is well presented with good sized rooms and all the bathroom suites have been fitted with stylish contemporary fixtures. A viewing is an absolute necessity to truly appreciate what this home has to offer and how it would satisfy many types of buyer and their needs.
