Charming village cottage with garden, garage and scope to modernise.
Character cottage with exposed beams and stone fireplace
Set in the popular village of Bere Regis, Southbrook Cottage is a charming three-bedroom detached home that blends period character with practical living. Exposed beams, a stone fireplace with a log burner and generous lounge proportions create immediate cottage appeal. The kitchen/dining room and garden room provide usable family space and direct access to the sunny, patioed rear garden.
The property sits on a decent plot with driveway parking and a single garage. Gas central heating and double glazing (triple glazing in the sitting room and main bedroom) help with comfort. The layout includes two shower rooms and a family bathroom, giving flexibility for families or multi-generational living.
Buyers should note this is an older solid-wall cottage (pre-1900) likely lacking cavity insulation, and parts of the house are compact—bedroom three is small. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, mobile signal is excellent, and the location has a medium flood risk. Council Tax is band E, above average.
This home suits a buyer seeking village life close to schools, local amenities and countryside walks, who appreciates character and is happy to modernise selectively (insulation, energy upgrades, or cosmetic updating) to improve comfort and running costs. Offers are invited.
