Owners say, "We have loved visiting our countryside escape since 2004. It's such a calming place to unwind and enjoy a drink out on the patio".
Welcome to Turret Cottage, at Whiteway Farm.
Probably built in the early 17th century, this Purbeck stone, Grade II listed cottage is a real treat.
The pure and soft interior colours, allow the character of the cottage to sing out. From the intriguing turret, mullioned windows and large open fireplace, there is much to admire in the cottage, and of course plenty of views to admire too.
Enter through the front door, which is nicely tucked into the turret, and kick off your boots in the PORCH. There is a convenient W.C., off to your right and a stylish glass door welcoming you into the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM. This is a comfortable and practical room with a lovely outlook towards the pond as you do the dishes! The AGA™ is both homely and practical, drawing you and your guests into the room, and there is space for a large dining table, to gather round.
The HALLWAY is a special place in itself, with a glass door that leads your eye out to the scenery beyond. Here you will find yourself curling up on a comfy chair to read a book, indulge in some yoga or simply meditate over the view and with the quietness surrounding you.
The cosy SITTING ROOM features a large stone fireplace, providing not only a warm and inviting space to relax, but a statement piece too.
The STAIRS lead up to the bedroom accommodation, the wooden balustrade contrasting with the wooden ceiling beams.
The cottage has THREE BEDROOMS, two of which have lovely rural views over the duck pond.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM has an ensuite shower room, adding a touch of modernity to this historical cottage.
BEDROOM TWO is designed with pale blue walls and exposed Purbeck stone, creating a contemporary feel while stone-framed windows pay homage to the property's heritage.
The stylish landing, also adorned with exposed Purbeck stone walls and beams, adds to the cottage's unique character. BEDROOM THREE is intriguingly set within the turret, it has a whimsical and enchanting air to it, and makes a captivating space.
Nestled in a quiet and serene rural location, this characterful cottage is part of a small, courtyard development.
The cottage has a detached DOUBLE GARAGE with side and rear aspect windows, the latter with delightful rural views. Parking is also available in the courtyard area
The courtyard leads to a secluded walled patio, perfect for climbing flowers for that extra touch of tranquility and to sit out and enjoy a glass of something lovely.
From the hallway, a glass door leads out onto a private stone patio which overlooks a picturesque pond, creating a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The view from here of the pond and fields beyond is truly fabulous, inviting you to take up your binoculars for some birdwatching and offering a daily dose of natural beauty and tranquillity.
