A well-appointed, individual, detached cottage-style home in one of the best locations in this desirable, picturesque coastal village.

The Property - Foxglove Cottage is a very attractive and well-appointed detached cottage-style home, considered to be located in one of the best positions in the sought-after village of Burton Bradstock, on a no-through road. The accommodation is well proportioned and highly versatile with the option of a self-contained single storey annexe, ideal for a broad variety of uses including for a dependent relative, as a guest wing for family and friends to realise an income stream via long-term or holiday lets. Owing to its position within the picturesque old village and close to open countryside, a charming outlook can be enjoyed from the property, particularly from the first floor, and with well kept, level gardens to the front, side and rear, this charming home offers every attribute expected from the perfect village home.

Under the current ownership a extensive programme of alteration and refurbishment has been carried out to an exacting standard and the property is now presented in virtually as-new condition with every modern amenity on hand. The many excellent features include gas fired central heating, traditional timber small-paned sealed unit windows, well-equipped main kitchen with triple ovens, 5 burner gas hob, integrated fridge/freezer and integrated dishwasher, well-appointed second kitchen (or utility) with electric oven, hob and integrated dishwasher, attractive bathroom and shower room fittings, security alarm system and a brick and beamed fireplace with wood burner to the sitting room.

The front door opens into a spacious lobby which, facing south, is used to great effect as a sun room during fine weather and leads in to the central dining hall. In addition to this highly sociable rooms, there are two further reception rooms on the ground floor including the expansive yet comfortable sitting room and adjoining snug, in which the fireplace is a key feature, and the large kitchen/breakfast room which includes a study area and adjoining utility/cloakroom. A further door from the dining hall leads to the annexe/wing which is currently appointed as a generous double bedroom with an ensuite shower room, a well appointed kitchen and a sitting/dining room with French doors to a separate side terrace. This area could easily be used as part of the main house, providing two bedrooms and an additional utility/laundry room, if desired. On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an ensuite shower room, and the family bathroom. There is also a large landing which has scope for a variety of purposes and gives access via a hatch with a pull down ladder to a part boarded loft space with power and light.

Outside - Foxglove Cottage is well screened from the road by an attractive front garden with an intriguing and characterful thatched summerhouse and a concrete driveway which leads to a crazy paved turning and parking area. Double wooden gates to the side lead onto a further driveway with access to the detached single garage.

The rear garden is a further feature, benefitting from a detached summerhouse which is insulated and lined with power, light and outside lights and therefore would make a superb home office or studio if required. In addition to this, there is also a detached timber workshop and greenhouse. To one corner, hidden behind fencing, is a working area with tool shed.

Situation - The property enjoys a very picturesque and peaceful position in this delightful back lane within the favoured old part of the village. Burton Bradstock lies on the coast and is considered to be one of the most attractive and sought-after villages in West Dorset. It is a Conservation Village and the centre consists mainly of period stone and thatched cottages for which the area is particularly well known. There are excellent local amenities including a shop/garage, Post Office, library, public houses, church, village hall and popular primary school. There is an excellent beach which forms part of the Jurassic Coast. Virtually on the doorstep there are public footpaths giving easy access to open countryside, riverside walks and to the beach and clifftops beyond.
