Characterful thatched retreat with landscaped low-maintenance gardens and village feel.
Grade II listed cottage — restrictions on alterations and works
Marley Cottage is a Grade II listed, thatched detached cottage offering characterful two-bedroom living in Enmore Green, within easy walking distance of Shaftesbury town centre. The house is compact (approx. 849 sq ft) and arranged traditionally, with a bright, sociable kitchen/dining area and a beamed sitting room centred on an open fire.
The property is well-appointed for comfortable, low-key country living: two double bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom with roll-top bath, utility/boot room and downstairs cloakroom. The thatch was renewed in 2018 and attractive, low-maintenance cottage gardens provide several sunny seating areas and views towards the Blackmore Vale.
Buyers should note the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate modernisation or extension. The cottage has relatively low ceilings and limited internal space compared with modern homes, and parking is on-street only. For downsizers or those seeking a character home close to local amenities, the house presents a ready-to-enjoy period retreat with potential for sensitive updating.
