Higher Street, Blandford Forum

Accommodation
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and retains a wealth of character throughout. The ground floor is entered via a porch into a central hallway, leading through to the principal reception spaces. The main sitting room/dining room is a particularly attractive space, centred around a striking inglenook fireplace which provides a real focal point and enhances the cottage’s charm. This room offers ample space for both relaxing and dining, with a cosy yet open feel. A second reception room provides additional flexibility and could be used as a snug, study or further sitting room depending on requirements. The kitchen is fitted in a traditional shaker style with wood-effect laminate worktops and includes an oven. There is space for further appliances, and the room enjoys a pleasant outlook with access towards the garden. A useful outside W.C is also located next to the kitchen providing potential to incorporate it into the main house. Upstairs, the wide landing leads to two good sized double bedrooms, both enjoying character features and natural light. The landing also included plenty of built in storage space. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom fitted with bath, wash hand basin and WC.
Outside
The property benefits from a large, mature rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn and enjoying a south-westerly orientation, making it a particularly sunny and enjoyable outdoor space. The garden offers a high degree of privacy and presents a fantastic blank canvas for landscaping, growing vegetables or adding further outbuildings if desired. There is a single garage and additional parking available to the side of the cottage, along with on-road parking nearby.
