Rarely available, this immaculately presented Victorian cottage forms part of a small terrace and stands in an excellent position in the centre of the village of Studland, close to the beach and a short distance from open country.
The property has been thoughtfully and meticulously renovated by the current owners, with a focus on preserving its period features including open fireplaces and wood burning stoves. The result is a charming home that harmonises comfort and stylish modern living in the pretty village of Studland, highly desirable with buyers today.
It is thought to have been built towards the latter part of the 19th Century of brick, with part cement rendering to the front elevation, under a slate tiled roof. The village of Studland lies at the South-Eastern tip of the Isle of Purbeck, approximately 9 miles from the conurbations of Poole and Bournemouth both of which have main line rail link to London Waterloo (approximately 2 hours). Much of the surrounding area is owned by the National Trust and is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty including the gateway to the Jurassic Coast and World Heritage Coastline. The village has a popular pub, two hotels – Knoll House and the Pig on the Beach, and it is also well served by a village store. There is also a riding school and an international Golf Club on the outskirts of the village.
As you enter the cottage, you are welcomed by the dining room with feature brick fireplace. Enhancing the decor, the ground floor of the cottage is fitted with oak wood flooring throughout. Beyond the kitchen has been fitted with Neptune oak units complemented with granite worktops, AGA cooker and integrated appliances including a slimline dishwasher and fridge freezer. Matching furniture is fitted to the dining room. The spacious living room is at the rear of the cottage enjoying views over the garden and surrounding countryside. It has a fitted wood burning stove and double doors lead to the covered patio harmoniously extending the indoor/outdoor living entertaining space.
