St. Mary Well Street, Beaminster, Dorset, DT8

A deceptively spacious Grade II listed period terraced cottage with extended and characterful accommodation. Three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a good sized garden. Conveniently situated close to the centre of Beaminster

THE PROPERTY
Dove Cottage is an attractive Grade II-listed terraced home, brimming with character and enhanced by a practical single-storey rear extension. Ideally situated close to the centre of Beaminster, the property offers convenient access to the Jurassic Coast and the beautiful Dorset and Somerset countryside.
External steps lead to the front door and an entrance porch, which opens directly into the spacious sitting room. This welcoming reception space features vintage wooden parquet flooring, a large front-facing window with a window seat, a stone fireplace with space for an electric fire, and useful under-stairs storage.
Double doors connect the sitting room to a generous dining room, providing ample space for family meals and entertaining. A further set of double doors leads into the kitchen, which is fitted with oak wall and base units and wooden worktops, with limestone floors throughout the kitchen and dining room connecting the two spaces beautifully.
Beyond the dining room is a convenient downstairs cloakroom, a rear lobby with direct access to the garden, and a compact utility room with space and plumbing for appliances.
Upstairs, the property offers three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard. The two principal bedrooms are positioned at the front and feature attractive exposed wooden floorboards, plenty of natural light and charming views across the surrounding cottages and town. The third double bedroom overlooks the rear garden towards St Mary's Church.
The family bathroom combines wooden panelling and tiled splashbacks and includes a bath with an overhead shower, washbasin, WC, heated towel rail and an attractive internal stained-glass window.

OUTSIDE
Outside, the rear garden is arranged over three levels and planted with an established variety of shrubs and plants. Steps from the back door lead to a gravelled courtyard and then to a level lawn. At the top of the garden is a good-sized timber outbuilding with a veranda, currently used for storage. The garden benefits from a wonderfully sunny aspect and a pleasing degree of privacy.
On-street parking is available at the front of the property along St Mary Well St.

LOCATION
Beaminster is justifiably one of the most sought-after towns in the area. This vibrant, attractive town has an excellent range of facilities including a butcher, baker, post office, chemist, convenience stores, greengrocers, two doctors' surgeries, veterinary surgery, independent gift and tea shops, restaurants, public houses, hotel and leisure facilities. There is a wide variety of clubs and societies to choose from and Beaminster Festival, an annual event, hosts local and national artists, writers and musicians. Nestled in the countryside surrounded by hills, woodland and rolling pasture, much of it designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is a short walk to nearby footpaths and a vast network of routes.
The Georgian town of Bridport and the coast at West Bay are within 20 minutes' drive and Crewkerne with a main line railway service to London Waterloo is approximately 7 miles, both with a further range of facilities and supermarkets, including Waitrose.
