About the property
IDEAL PROJECT SET WITHIN 1.5 ACRES
Situated just on the outskirts of the Saxon walled market town of Wareham, Woodpecker Cottage offers a fantastic opportunity to create a wonderful family home set in a stunning woodland setting whilst being within easy reach of the town centre. The Saxon walled market town of Wareham offers a wide range of amenities including shops, public houses, restaurants and mainline train station providing access to London Waterloo. The River Frome also benefits from a marina and yacht club.
Nestled in a serene woodland setting off a private road, this detached house presents a rare opportunity for complete refurbishment, offering endless potential to create a dream home in a stunning location. The property is surrounded by approximately 1.5 acres of wonderful grounds, including a lush lawn, a charming patio, and mature woodland, providing both privacy and tranquillity.
The existing accommodation is filled with character and includes an inviting entrance hall, featuring a striking stone staircase and vaulted ceiling. The spacious sitting room, with its classic fireplace, boasts views over the beautiful gardens. A separate dining room and kitchen with a cellar offer ample space for entertaining and everyday living. A convenient WC completes the ground floor.
Downstairs, the lower ground floor is home to four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with an en-suite shower room, plus a family bathroom. Two bedrooms offer views over the surrounding grounds, allowing you to wake up to the peaceful sounds of nature.
Externally, the property benefits from driveway parking and plenty of potential for extension or modernization (subject to planning permission), making this a blank canvas for the discerning buyer. Set in such a sought-after, idyllic woodland location, this property is perfect for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle and the opportunity to transform a classic home into something truly special.
The property also benefits from double glazing and gas fired central heating.
