This Grade II listed three-bedroom semi-detached cottage in Frampton is full of original character: exposed beams, a feature fireplace and traditional plank doors create a warm, authentic village home. The property offers two reception rooms, a cottage kitchen with direct garden access and pleasant views over the village green. A large rear garden with mature fruit trees provides private outdoor space and scope for productive planting or landscaping.
Practical considerations are clear and should influence viewing decisions. The thatched roof and external elevations have recent or ongoing repair works, and listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation, so energy running costs and upgrade work are likely. The house has one family bathroom and needs updating in places, presenting scope for improvement rather than move-in perfection.
This property will be sold at public auction on 23 October 2025 and is offered freehold. It sits in a conservation area within easy reach of Maiden Newton’s amenities and local primary schooling, with Dorchester about five miles away for wider services and transport links. Buyers seeking period character and a village location — and who understand the responsibilities of a listed thatched cottage — will find genuine potential here, whether for a family home or a sympathetic renovation project.
