About the property

The property enjoys an idyllic setting along a quite private road on the rural edge of Corfe Mullen close to Happy Bottom Nature Reserve with a number footpaths leading onto surrounding heathland and the Lambs Green Inn, perfect for walkers. It enjoys some far reaching countryside views, yet is also within easy reach of Wimborne Minster just 1.5 miles away. The local area is known for its sought after schooling including both Corfe Hills and Lockyers in walking distance.
Bumble Cottage is a charming detached home boasting a wealth of character features including features fire places, exposed wood flooring, doors and architraves. In recent years the property has been considerably improved and extended using reclaimed materials where possible, with the addition of a detached garage plus a large outbuilding that would make an ideal home office, studio, annexe or holiday let subject to relevant permissions. This unique home really must be viewed to fully appreciate.

The sitting room has high ceilings, a dual aspect with french doors leading out to the garden and a feature fire place with an inset wood burner. There is a separate snug with a further fire place with wood burner and doors to the garden.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. When extended the current owners created a superb main bedroom suite with a dressing area with fitted wardrobes together with a fully tiled en-suite shower room.
