West Hill, Charminster, Dorchester DT2

Charming and deceptively spacious four-bedroom Grade II Listed cottage with period features throughout, large south-facing garden and views of St. Mary’s Church – nestled in the heart of this popular village.

The Property

Priory Cottage is a charming and characterful Grade II Listed cottage, part thatched and part tiled, nestled in the heart of Charminster. Full of period features and natural light, the cottage offers a surprising sense of space throughout.

You enter into a generous hallway that leads into a beautifully bright, dual-aspect sitting room with stone mullioned windows and an attractive stone fireplace. To the left is a versatile dining room—also ideal as a second reception room—featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace with a bread oven.

The L-shaped kitchen is filled with natural light and fitted with shaker-style units, a walk-in pantry, and lovely views across the garden. A fourth bedroom at the far end of the house provides excellent flexibility and is currently used as a study, with a modern shower room conveniently located nearby.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a spacious dual-aspect double, enjoying views over the rear garden and towards St. Mary’s Church at the front.

Outside

The large, south-facing garden is mainly laid to lawn and backs onto open meadows. A gravelled, enclosed side yard provides additional outdoor space and gated access to the front. Well-stocked borders, mature shrubs, and established trees create a peaceful and private setting.

Situation

The property is located in the picturesque village of Charminster which is home to a first school, shop/sub post office, two pubs, a pretty Norman church and a village hall.

Charminster is just a couple of miles from Dorset’s historic county town, Dorchester, which has many restaurants, over 400 shops, various leisure facilities, a number of highly regarded schools and the renowned Dorset County Hospital.
