An attractive end-of-terrace cottage in a tucked away setting in a popular rural village wth a good-sized plot<br/><br/> PROPERTY<br/>Constructed of brick and flint elevations under a tiled roof, 3 Buddens Row is beautifully tucked away and offers potential for cosmetic improvement, as well as scope for extension (subject to the necessary consents). The rooms are nicely proportioned and set out in a linear fashion on both floors, taking advantage of the southerly aspect over its large front garden. It is likely that the property originally formed two cottages, and at each end are doors opening to the front from respective lobbies used for coats and boots. The kitchen/dining room is of a good size, while the study lies off a pleasant sitting room with a working woodburner. Upstairs are four decent bedrooms and a bathroom off a wide landing.<br/><br/>OUTSIDE<br/>The property is approached via a track past its neighbours to a parking area in front of a timber garage. The front garden is of a good size, planted with beds and shrubs climbing the cottage’s façade. Access to the rear is around the side, where there is an outside wc and concrete hardstanding. The lawn is raised, to the rear of which are fruit trees, raspberries and a compost area.<br/><br/>SITUATION<br/><br/>The property is situated in the sought-after rural community of Ashmore, reputed to be the highest village in Dorset and close to its border with Wiltshire.
