3 bedroom semi-detached house

A very special coastal home on this no-through road to Ringstead beach, a magical place forming part of the renowned World Heritage Jurassic coastline. Not only is the main home enchanting and beautifully refurbished and presented, but so is the separate one-bedroom annexe. Rose Cottage is a delightful opportunity for those considering extended family or seeking income potential.

The sense of space and character is immediately apparent as you step inside the cottage. A large PORCH with double doors leads to a very generous RECEPTION HALL which extends into the SITTING ROOM. Exposed stone walls, rustic timbers, and a cosy woodburner draw you in. On a practical note, timber flooring runs throughout. Steps up to the KITCHEN/DINING ROOM lead into another welcoming room tastefully arranged with a useful island unit and providing plentiful storage. A combination of timber and granite work surfaces adds interest and there is a Belling range oven with electric hob, an under-counter Neff™ dishwasher, wine cooler within the island unit and space for a fridge freezer. It lends itself beautifully to entertaining with bi-folding doors to access the garden. Adjacent to this room is another RECEPTION ROOM, with windows to two sides creating a light, airy room. From this room there are double doors providing secondary access to the PORCH (which also has space for a washing machine).

Stairs from the Reception Hall lead up to the FIRST FLOOR where there are 3 BEDROOMS, bathroom and ensuite to principal bedroom. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is impressive. Whether it’s watching the stars at night through the skylights above the bed, or enjoying a morning coffee on the balcony, it is very appealing. It has an ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM and a recess with fitted cupboard. The other two bedrooms are used as a double room and a twin-bedded room. The BATHROOM offers a relaxing retreat with curved bath having central taps, a W.C, and wash-hand basin. The exposed stone wall and softly painted wall panelling creates a calm and tranquil atmosphere.

The ANNEXE has been deftly planned: a KITCHEN has a range of wall and base units with space for a washing machine, a slot-in cooker with extractor hood over and lies adjacent to a SUNROOM with outlook over the courtyard and garden. The other side of the kitchen is a BEDROOM with walk-in wardrobe and BATHROOM which has a bath, hand basin and W.C.

Outside
To the front of the house is generous PARKING providing a number of spaces, which is unusual in this location. A door in the wall leads into the garden for Rose Cottage which is attractively designed incorporating a sunny patio area, and mature shrubbery edging the lawns. Steps from the parking area access the private courtyard garden for the annexe ensuring privacy for both: there is a paved patio area immediately abutting the annexe and the remainder is gravelled to provide a generally maintenance-free outside space.

Location
Upton is a small yet pretty hamlet close to the beautiful beaches and National Trust estate at Ringstead. Beautiful walks and proximity to the coast are just some of the advantages of living at Upton and yet it is also within easy access of the seaside resort of Weymouth and the county town of Dorchester, with mainline railway stations and many amenities. Noted as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Upton is also located close to the ever-popular village of Osmington, with its picture postcard cottages, a modern village hall which hosts a full calendar of activities throughout the year, a public house, the Smugglers Inn at Osmington Mills, and ancient thirteenth century church.
