This is a unique opportunity to acquire an outstanding semi-detached Victorian cottage, formerly the village school and converted into a characterful, residential property in the early 1990s retaining its original architectural footprint. It is considered to date back to the 1850s and is of brick construction under a tiled roof.
Steeped in character and reflecting the area’s rich architectural history, the cottage has been meticulously renovated to offer a charming home with a wealth of original features. It stands in an attractive rural enclave and has a most picturesque landscaped garden with magnificent views of the adjacent countryside from the first floor.
Immaculately presented throughout, the interior has a feeling of contemporary warmth creating a graceful, relaxed home offering an easy living style with spacious accommodation. The impressive galleried living room, high ceilings, architectural windows, rooflight and veluxes amplify the space and flood the property with natural light. Contemporary additions include the stylish kitchen and newly fitted shower rooms all to suit the demands of modern living.
The Old School is situated along Church Lane in the desirable hamlet of East Stoke which lies on the south side of the River Frome flowing through to Poole Harbour. Much of the surrounding area is classified as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty and incorporates a World Heritage Coastline. It is about 4 miles from the Saxon walled town of Wareham and approximately 2 miles from the village of Wool, both of which have a main line rail link to London, Waterloo (approx 2.5-3 hours). Wareham is well served with a number of schools, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and independent shops, museum, dentist and doctors.
Presented throughout with a neutral decor to maximise the light and spatial feeling, the superbly fitted kitchen welcomes you to this delightful home. The kitchen area has a rooflight providing additional light and is fitted with stylish grey units, contrasting worktops, freestanding Range cooker and a suite of integrated appliances; it has been designed to incorporate a small dining area. Leading off, the utility room has worktops and a sink providing a useful storage and working area.
The imposing open plan South facing dual aspect living/dining room spans the full width of the property with high ceilings and a row of windows accentuating the space and light. The fireplace is fitted with a woodburning stove and there are spiral staircases at each end of the room leading to the upper floor. There is also a conservatory with access to the rear South facing terrace, a self-contained one bedroom suite at the front, a further bedroom at the rear and bathroom on this level.
