Summary - The Homestead, New Street, Marnhull DT10 1QA
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Spacious 17th‑century cottage with garden and large driveway in popular village location.
Three double bedrooms, master with ensuite
A substantial 17th‑century detached cottage combining authentic period charm with sympathetic later extensions. Stone elevations, exposed beams and a multi‑fuel burner give character and warmth, while a large kitchen‑diner, separate dining room and bright garden room provide generous family living space. The master bedroom includes an ensuite and a second bedroom benefits from a private staircase from the lounge.
Outside, the low‑maintenance, shrub‑planted garden and sizeable driveway make day‑to‑day living easy in this popular village location. Essentials are close: Spar shop three minutes’ walk, village pubs and hall within ten to fifteen minutes on foot. The property is freehold, has double glazing (install date unknown) and mains gas boiler with radiators.
Buyers should note this is an older, pre‑1900 building: period construction can mean elevated maintenance and updating needs over time. Double glazing install date is unspecified and some elements may require refreshing to modern standards. Broadband and mobile signals are average and some nearby schools have mixed Ofsted reports — factors to consider for homeworking or schooling choices.
This cottage will suit a family seeking generous, characterful accommodation in a quiet, affluent village setting who value space and charm over turnkey modernity. It also offers potential for modest updating while retaining strong curb appeal and practical outdoor space.
