Property description

Full description

"Farriers Lodge" Sympathetically Refurbished 17th Century Character Cottage in the Shadow of Iconic Corfe Castle

This  terraced Cottage is situated in the popular village of Corfe Castle approximately 300 metres from the Village Square, inns and local stores, and a short walk to the historic & National Trust managed Corfe Castle ruins. The train line operating a steam train service to Swanage (shortly to be linked to Wareham and the main Weymouth/Waterloo line) is approximately 5 minutes' walk  and the bus link to Poole/Swanage is close by. A short distance away are local open field space with fitness and children's play/outdoor areas and countryside walks over the Purbeck Hills to Studland and Lulworth.

The original building, thought to be Grade II Listed, is of stone construction under a thatch roof with a more recently added single storey extension to the rear which has external cement rendered elevations under a slate roof.  Many period features have been retained and benefits include gas fired central heating, some secondary glazed windows, en-suite shower to the master bedroom, ground floor bathroom/wc  and an enclosed West facing rear garden. The cottage has been successfully holiday let as self-catering accommodation for several years.  We are advised that some of the furniture can be purchased, if required. 
 
Residents may apply to Purbeck District Council for a residents parking permit in a local public car park.
