Set in a peaceful rural lane just under 2 miles from Wimborne, this tastefully restored Lady Wimborne cottage combines period character with practical modern upgrades. The house sits in a substantial plot of over a third of an acre with landscaped lawns, an orchard and two original brick outbuildings, offering excellent outdoor space, privacy and far-reaching views across the Stour Valley.
The interior has been sympathetically renovated to retain character: Gothic-style re-glazed windows, ledged oak doors, oak flooring and original-style switches sit alongside a refitted kitchen, a 2018 conservatory and full-speed fibre broadband. The sitting room’s multifuel stove (with back boiler) is a strong focal point and delivers heating and hot water alongside radiators.
Buyers should note the cottage's modest internal footprint (approximately 848 sq ft) and two-bedroom layout — ideal for a small family, downsizers seeking character, or a countryside retreat, but limited for larger households. Heating relies on dual fuel (mineral and wood) with room heaters and a multifuel stove rather than a conventional gas-fired boiler, and the property currently has an EPC around E with scope for improvement.
Practical positives include off-street parking, a recently installed sewage treatment plant and external wall insulation. The hamlet location offers very low crime, scenic walks to a river and nature reserve, and easy road access to Wimborne, Poole and Bournemouth. The large plot and outbuildings present clear potential for hobby uses, home working space or further adaptation subject to relevant consents.
