This well-presented three-bedroom cottage sits within the private Henbury House Gardens development, tucked into the former walled garden and backing onto rural walking routes. The house combines character touches — exposed brick, a log burner and beamed ceilings — with practical modern fittings such as an induction hob, integrated oven and mains gas central heating.
The property works well for families or those seeking a quiet village base with easy access to Wimborne, Bournemouth and Poole. The end-terrace layout offers two allocated parking spaces and a south-facing enclosed garden with a paved patio and gate to the parking and countryside footpaths.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: broadband speeds in the area are very slow, council tax is band E (above average) and there is a maintenance/service charge of £610 per year. The plot is modest in size and the house, built in 1998, is average in overall footprint (approx. 877 sq ft), so anyone seeking a large garden or extensive internal space should be aware of those limits.
Overall this is a comfortable, ready-to-live-in home with countryside character and convenient parking — a sensible choice for a growing family or downsizer who values village tranquillity and nearby green space, while accepting the trade-offs of plot size and local broadband provision.
