A HIGHLY ATTRACTIVE GRADE II LISTED THATCHED THREE BEDROOM COTTAGE, SET IN NEARLY HALF AN ACRE OF WONDERFUL GARDENS WITH TWO TRADITIONAL STYLE OUTBUILDINGS, IN A SECLUDED LOCATION WITHIN EASY REACH OF THE ISLE OF PURBECK AND THE ...

Property Oracle says ..

This Grade II listed thatched cottage in East Knighton, Dorset presents a charming blend of character and rural tranquility. The property features three bedrooms and one bathroom, and boasts a substantial garden. The interior shows a mix of updated and older features. The kitchen and bathroom have been recently updated, offering a modern aesthetic, while some of the bedrooms and overall interior finishes appear ready for some updating. The large garden, complete with landscaping features and a greenhouse, is a highlight, offering significant outdoor space and privacy. The additional outbuildings provide versatile storage or potential for conversion (subject to necessary planning permissions).

The location in rural East Knighton offers a peaceful setting and proximity to the attractive Isle of Purbeck. However, it’s important to note the distance to more substantial amenities and the need for a car for daily transportation. The nearby towns of Wool and Wareham offer access to railway services and a wider range of facilities. Educational facilities are available nearby, but investigation into their Ofsted ratings is crucial for families with children. In summary, this property offers an appealing balance of character, a substantial plot, and a tranquil rural location but buyers should consider the required effort for modernization and relatively isolated setting.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
