THE PROPERTY

Stour Provost is a delightful village to the west of the popular market town of Shaftesbury. Shaftesbury has weekly markets and lies in the heart of the Blackmoor Vale.

Mill Cottage was extended in the early 2000s from an original 18th century stone cottage under a slate tile roof to create a fabulous light and airy family home over two floors. The entrance is via the porch through to an entrance hall, leading to a study/bedroom, WC/shower room, kitchen/dining room with French doors opening out onto a paved terrace with stunning views towards the River Stour and the open countryside. From the kitchen/dining room a door leads you into the sun room with a stone tile floor with doors leading out to the garden again with stunning views across the surrounding countryside. The double aspect sitting room has a timber floor, exposed beams, a large open fire with French doors leading out onto the gravel terrace area with views across the countryside. The staircase situated outside the sitting room leads up to the first floor landing. The main bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with a stunning view out onto the countryside, across the paddock. The ensuite has a tiled floor, bath and shower. There is a separate family shower room outside the master bedroom and two further bedrooms.

Mill Cottage is approached from the lane through a double gate onto a concrete parking area. From the parking area there is access to the single garage, with a stone pathway with well kept borders either side leading down stone steps to the front door of the house. A further lawn with a mixture of trees and shrubs is predominantly on the western side of the property. There is a potting shed and access to two paddocks on the northern side of the property which overlooks the River Stour and the adjoining countryside to the east side of the property. There is access from the lane to the paddocks extending to approximately 1.5 acres and a delightful stone cart shed.
