Nestled in the heart of the Dorset countryside, Oak Tree Cottage is a charming Grade II listed home steeped in history and character. Originally built in the 18th century with traditional plastered cobb walls and a picturesque thatched roof, the property has been sympathetically extended and adapted over time, with significant additions made during the 1960s and 1980s.
Inside, the cottage retains many period features, including exposed beams and joists that add warmth and authenticity to the living spaces. The blend of original construction and later modifications creates a home that is both rich in heritage and adaptable for modern living.
Recognised by Historic England as Monument 44 in the Dorset Volume V, Oak Tree Cottage is not only a delightful home but also a piece of local history. Its character, charm, and timeless appeal make it a rare opportunity for buyers seeking something truly special.
The first time the property has been listed in 50 years.
The property is approached via a private driveway with parking for several vehicles, and is surrounded by a generous wrap- around garden, providing plenty of outdoor space to enjoy.
