Owner says, 'The sense of space, privacy and quiet has been a dream. We have felt privileged to live in a Grade II listed, character-filled home.'
Welcome to Yew Tree Cottage, a Grade II listed residence where history is in the fabric of the house. The location, sense of space and wide-open gardens, leading to far-reaching rural views, are simply fabulous.
This handsome home welcomes you with generous rooms that exude warmth and lots of natural light. The moment you enter the HALLWAY, you step through onto parquet flooring, which is also found in the dining room.
There is a SITTING ROOM, with views out to the garden from the window seats, and a fireplace to keep you snug in the winter.
The DINING ROOM has French doors which open out to the paved terrace and allowing sunlight into the bright and airy room.
The kitchen is a delightful space, again light and bright, with plenty of space for a dining table, perfect for breakfasts or kitchen suppers. There are plenty of cupboards and even a PANTRY, which is so useful (and also has plumbing for the washing machine) There is a gas hob (propane), double oven, fridge/freezer and dishwasher too.
Upstairs, the bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat, with each one providing a unique view of the surrounding gardens. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has an EN-SUITE shower room, as does the GUEST BEDROOM. The remaining TWO BEDROOMS are served by the FAMILY BATHROOM, which has a bathtub, wash hand basin and W.C.
The gardens that surround Yew Tree Cottage, are rather special. They invoke the feeling of space and certainly have privacy too.
From the rear garden there are far reaching rural views out to pastureland.
A stone paved terrace invites you to enjoy the south-westerly position and to enjoy the views.
The adorable, thatched SUMMER HOUSE is so pretty and adds another dimension to outside entertaining.
Adding to the character of the home and garden, is the working well, where traditionally water was pumped to the house.
There is a GREENHOUSE and OUTBUILDING, comprising currently a GARAGE, UTILITY ROOM, WORKSHOP and OFFICE. There is potential here to create an annexe (STPP).
The driveway can accommodate several cars and there is generous provision for the additional parking of a boat or caravan too.
Despite its secluded feel, the property is within easy proximity of the A35 and links to Poole/Bournemouth and Dorchester and the A31 with links to Wimborne, Ringwood and Southampton. There is a very friendly and active Village Club housed in the old village school, with a varied social programme and in the centre of the village, is Saint Andrews Church. Bloxworth Heath is part of Wareham Forest which has several acres of walks and cycle paths.
