Owner says, "What an idyllic spot from which to explore the Nature Reserve at Arne! With the yacht club round the corner, and just a short stroll along the riverbank to Wareham, it's the perfect place to live or visit."
This pretty terraced home nestles amongst a small row of similar properties, believed to have been built around 1905 by the Pike brothers, as clay workers cottages. The stone steps lead up to a small storm porch and front door.
Stepping into the SITTING ROOM, you can feel the character of the property and a woodburning stove sitting in the hearth, just enhances this. The DINING ROOM, also has a feature fireplace with an ornamental original style range, found by the present owners and which perfectly fits the space.
Onto the KITCHEN, which was added on (along with the bathroom above it) in the 1950's, now has modern wall and base units, a fitted gas hob, electric oven and space for a fridge freezer. The boiler is housed here and the outlook is onto the pretty garden at the rear.
A door takes you out to the BOOT ROOM/UTILITY ROOM with space and plumbing for washing machine, and tumble dryer, and space for coats and muddy boots! Just off here is also a useful ground floor W.C.
From the dining room, cottage style stairs rise to the bedroom accommodation. BEDROOM ONE, a generous double and overlooking the woodland to the front, has a pretty ornate fireplace. BEDROOM TWO, a twin/smaller double, overlooks the garden at the rear.
The BATHROOM has lots of natural light flooding in and has a bath tub, separate shower cubicle, W.C., and wash basin set in base units. On the landing there is a useful AIRING CUPBOARD and loft access - many of the other properties in the terrace have taken advantage of the loft space and created a further bedroom (with the appropriate planning permission and building regulations).
The front of the house is delightful, the FRONT GARDEN is approached via stepping stones which lead up to the front storm porch, on either side is lawn and the garden is surrounded by a very pretty low Purbeck stone wall. The REAR GARDEN follows the width of the property and is surprisingly long with a lawn, SHED and vegetable plot.
There is an historic right of way across the yard and across the neighbours garden for access from the DESIGNATED PARKING SPACE at the side of the terrace.
Ridge is a highly sought after area just outside the riverside market town of Wareham, with its historic Saxon walls and eclectic mix of shops and eateries and its own independent cinema. Ridge is known for its yacht club and lovely walks, it is also very close to the lovely Arne Nature Reserve, part of the Dorset National Landscape. Wareham has a main line railway line to London/Waterloo (2 1/2 hours) and the beaches at Swanage and Studland are close by, as is the magical village of Corfe Castle.
