This well-loved cottage is both close to walks and the town. What is particularly unusual here, is that the cottage is not listed, although thought to have been built around 1760.

The lane that it sits on, is an eclectic mix of different building styles, from different eras, reminding us that Wareham town is ever evolving yet the links to its historic past remain.

Step through the front door and you step through into a very welcoming SITTING ROOM. It is full of character and a striking red brick fireplace catches your eye. This modern log burner, will warm you on cooler evenings, warming the whole cottage in Winter too.

The ground floor BATHROOM, is fresh and modern, with a bathtub, and electric shower overhead, hand wash basin and W.C.

Step through the sitting room, with its characterful wooden beams and you will be impressed with the light streaming into the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM from the large sliding patio doors.

The kitchen has recently been installed and there is plenty of work space, storage and style to entertain at home. The juxtaposition of the new within the old is endearing. There is an integral induction hob and oven, a dishwasher and washing machine.

To the rear of the kitchen, is a perfect spot for a dining area, with views out to the garden beyond, from the sliding glass doors.

As is usual in cottages of this age, the stairs are hidden behind a wooden door, to the side of the fireplace. These take you up to the two double bedrooms.

The PRINCIPAL DOUBLE BEDROOM, is generous in both size and character, with a super handy ENSUITE W.C., and wash hand basin. The views from the cottage window are out to the chimney pots of Wareham town.

BEDROOM 2 is at the rear of the cottage, with an airing cupboard and a Velux™ window, allowing you to stargaze, on bright clear nights.

Outside
From the lane, to the side of the cottage there is a gate which leads you into the enclosed rear garden. What an absolute treat, to have such a garden in the centre of town.

From the cottage, you can step out from your kitchen/diner onto the double level patio. There is plenty of space for a bistro table and chairs here.

The garden runs along the North/South compass lines, means you will always find a sunny spot.

To the rear of the lawned garden there is a hardstanding, perfectly positioned for a summer house or yoga studio, or home office.

This garden has some mature shrubs and plants, but with the right (green) fingers, could easily become a flourishing space for flowers and shrubs, veggies and fruit. Why not keep a greenhouse to grow your own herbs too?

Location
Located within the Saxon Walls, this cottage is right in the heart of the town. All amenities are within walking distance, including an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, including an independent cinema which host the annual Purbeck Film Festival. Wareham is the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck and all that this incredible area offers; beaches, walks, views, history, cycle tracks, water sports, the list is endless.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 4, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
