Description
Readers Cottage is a charming 18th-century Dorset farm worker's cottage located on a hillside with views of the surrounding countryside. The cottage has been transformed into a larger residence, retaining its original character while incorporating modern amenities. The property features five reception rooms, including a sitting room with an inglenook fireplace, a study with a corner window, and a dining room with a vaulted ceiling. The combined kitchen and dining room has bi-fold doors that open to a terrace and garden, and the kitchen is fitted with bespoke units. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, including a principal bedroom with a dressing room and ensuite shower room. The garden is an absolute delight, with terraced lawns, mature hedging, and a variety of roses and herbaceous perennials. The property also includes a workshop, two garden stores, and a bin store. Located near the villages of Milborne Port and Sherborne, and with easy access to major towns and cities, Readers Cottage is a unique and beautiful home in a picturesque setting.
