This immaculately presented superior detached period cottage is situated in the centre of the picturesque village of Worth Matravers approximately 100 metres from the village Green and Duck Pond.

Honeysuckle Cottage is Grade II Listed and is thought to date back to the early 1700s.

It has undergone a meticulous and stylish renovation whilst maintaining a wealth of original character features including inglenook fireplace with original bread oven and wood burning stove, vaulted beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls, resulting in an exceptionally fine home.

The exterior reflects the area's rich architectural history whilst the interior has a feeling of contemporary warmth creating a graceful, relaxed home offering an easy living style. High quality materials, including stylish kitchen and bathroom suites, electric radiators remotely wi-fi operated, combine seamlessly to unite the tranquility of the countryside with the demands of modern living. Landscaped gardens surround the property uniting the peace and tranquility of the countryside with walking access to Winspit and Chapmans Pool close by.

Presented throughout with a neutral decor to maximise the light and spatial feeling, the most attractive and particularly spacious and dual aspect living room welcomes you to Honeysuckle Cottage. Leading off, the dining room is further enhanced by North and South aspects through the conservatory, which has double doors leading to the garden harmoniously blending inside/outdoor living.

NB. The EPC for this property is currently Band G and is below the rating required to be able to let the property. This is mostly due to the age of the property and being Grade II Listed. In our opinion, there may be exemptions available to overcome this and it would then qualify for letting. We will be pleased to supply further information upon request.
