THE AGENT SAYS...
Lantern Cottage is a delightful property, lovingly restored embracing the old period features with a modern Scandinavian twist. The cottage may be small, but it has been cleverly designed to make the best of every inch, offering everything you could need without compromise. This super little cottage is close to amenities, has low running costs, certificates for everything and is within easy motoring distance of the Jurassic Coast, making it a lovely first home or a holiday rental property.

THE PROPERTY
The ground floor comprises an open plan kitchen/dining sitting room which is centred around a wood-burning stove set into a characterful red brick fireplace. The kitchen area is a superb size, comprising of contemporary white units with a pale wood worktop that blends quietly into the background. There is a great amount of storage, along with all integrated appliances, including a dishwasher and washing machine. A window seat defines the dining area and is a lovely spot to sit, whether dining or not. A comfy sofa tucks nicely under the staircase and there is room for an additional easy chair, coffee table, and small storage unit in the lounge area. An attractive glass-sided staircase rises to the first floor.

On the first floor is a gorgeous bedroom with a vaulted ceiling that creates an airy and spacious feel. There is a wealth of charming features which include: a red brick fireplace wall, exposed roof timbers, a wooden feature wall with hidden doors to the bathroom and wardrobe, and a built-in desk that makes very clever use of a dinky nook alongside the stairs. The bathroom might be an unusual shape, but contains a substantial 1800x800 Duravit bath with shower above, wall-hung toilet, wash basin, and a large heated towel rail.

OUTSIDE
There is no garden, however there is space for pots and planters outside the front door to add a touch of green. There is a wooden bench attached to the cottage to listen to the wildlife with a coffee and opposite there is a useful outdoor store that is perfect for a bike.
