South Cottage is a charming three-bedroom thatched cottage recently renovated to combine period character with contemporary convenience. The ham-stone exterior, exposed beams and cosy reception rooms give authentic rural charm, while the kitchen, two modern shower rooms and triple glazing deliver everyday comfort. The property has been used successfully as a holiday let and is offered chain free.
Set in the active village of Mosterton, the house sits on a decent plot with gravel parking for two to three cars and a gated lawned garden with terrace for al fresco dining. The layout includes a snug/study, dining room, vaulted family sitting room and a practical utility — comfortable space for family life or weekend guests.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and the roof is thatched (recently renewed) which carries routine maintenance; there is a recorded medium flood risk for the area. The solid stone walls and heritage construction mean insulation and repairs should be reviewed, though the vendor fitted internal insulation and low-profile triple glazing during refurbishment.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking character in a quiet Dorset village with local shops, a primary school and good road links to Beaminster and Crewkerne. It offers immediate move-in condition with potential for personalisation, while the village location and previous holiday-let use also make it attractive to part-time owners or investors.
