Characterful village cottage with garage, courtyard and no onward chain.
Detached two-bedroom character home with exposed beams and vaulted bedroom
A compact, characterful two-bedroom detached home tucked into a converted farmhouse courtyard in Lytchett Matravers. Exposed timber framing, beam ceilings and a vaulted first-floor bedroom give the house authentic period charm while the open-plan ground floor with an open fire feels welcoming and practical for everyday living.
Practical benefits include two ensuite bedrooms, a detached single garage, driveway parking and low-maintenance, hard‑landscaped gardens plus a private front courtyard. The verandah area offers simple scope to create a second reception room (subject to planning) or to connect living space through to the garage if you need extra room.
Important negatives are clear and factual: the EPC rating is G and heating is oil‑fired, with a shared septic tank in use. The property’s walls are original solid brick and likely lack modern cavity insulation, so energy costs and retrofit work should be considered. The house is compact in footprint, with some low to medium ceiling heights in parts, so it suits buyers who prioritise character and location over large internal space.
No onward chain and a very large plot give flexibility and appeal to buyers wanting a manageable village home with scope for sympathetic improvement. The hamlet setting offers peaceful rural living while still providing reasonable road links to Poole, Dorchester and beyond.
