A charming Grade II listed hamstone cottage set on the edge of West Chinnock, Rose Cottage combines authentic period character with generous outdoor space. The sitting room’s hamstone fireplace, exposed beams and traditional features create a cosy family living space, while a good-sized kitchen/breakfast room and handy boot room add practical everyday use.
The plot extends to approximately 0.37 acres and includes attractive cottage gardens, a small paddock, a range of outbuildings and a detached double garage with extensive gravelled parking opposite the house. These grounds suit families who want outdoor play space, hobby gardening or secure parking for several vehicles.
Practical points to note: the house uses oil-fired central heating and is EPC exempt owing to its listed status. Broadband is very slow in this location, and the property has a flying freehold and listed status, which will constrain some works and may complicate alterations or extension plans. Several useful outbuildings provide storage or workshop potential but will require ongoing maintenance.
This cottage will suit buyers who value rural character, generous grounds and village-edge living, and who are comfortable with the responsibilities of a listed building and rural services. Viewing will make clear the scale of the garden and parking, and how the internal character could be preserved while updating to modern needs.
