A beautifully presented modern DETACHED THATCHED HOME that combines classic Dorset character with a smart, contemporary interior. The house has been thoughtfully renovated and modernised throughout, creating a bright, spacious, and comfortable living environment.
The SITTING ROOM enjoys a wonderful sense of light, with wide glazed doors opening to the garden and an integrated wood burner forming a natural focal point. It is an inviting and well-proportioned space, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining.
The KITCHEN is stylish and practical, fitted with quality units, a range of white goods including a five-ring gas hob and cooker and a useful, sociable breakfast bar and island. There is also space for a breakfast table or, as the current owners have configured it, a relaxed seating area overlooking the rear garden via tri-folding doors that bring the outside in. The DINING ROOM sits alongside, providing a warm and elegant setting for family meals or gatherings.
The ground floor also includes a UTILITY ROOM and a CLOAKROOM/W.C., both finished to the same exacting standard as the rest of the home.
Upstairs, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM benefits from a calm, refined feel. The DRESSING ROOM, originally the fourth bedroom, has been cleverly reconfigured to complement the principal suite beautifully, offering generous storage and an elegant sense of flow. The layout still allows for an easy return to a four-bedroom format if desired.
BEDROOM TWO is a generous double room, well-proportioned and finished in soft, neutral tones and includes a well-appointed EN SUITE with a shower cubicle, W.C., and wash hand basin. BEDROOM THREE is another double room with a rear aspect, currently utilised as a home office. The FAMILY BATHROOM is partially tiled and contemporary in style, finished to the same high standard as the rest of the home. It features a large, deep freestanding bath with an overhead shower, W.C., and wash hand basin.
Outside
Outside, the property continues to impress. A generous driveway provides ample parking and access to a single GARAGE. Beyond this lies a substantial STUDIO/OUTBUILDING, currently used as a gym, offering excellent flexibility for hobbies, home working, or creative use. There is also a hot tub, ideal for enjoying the seclusion and relaxation of your surroundings. The gardens are private, neatly landscaped, and arranged to provide pleasant areas for seating and relaxation.
This is a home that delivers all the charm of a traditional thatched cottage combined with the comfort, practicality, and visual appeal of a high-quality modern renovation. It stands as an ideal blend of period character and contemporary finish, perfect for buyers seeking something special in a well-connected Dorset village.
