Set within the stable complex of 17th century Ilsington House, home to the first Lord Walpole. This Grade II listed home beautifully marries historic charm with contemporary living for the over 55's.

The property offers a light and spacious interior that is beautifully presented and welcomes you from the moment you enter.

The ENTRANCE HALL comes equipped with built-in storage, perfect for keeping your living space clutter-free. This leads you into a generously proportioned SITTING/DINING area where natural light floods through the space. French doors lead to the paved TERRACE. An electric stove provides both a focal point and a living flame to add cosiness to the room.

The sleek KITCHEN has an array of wall mounted and floor based cabinets with wood finish counter tops over. Integrated appliances include fridge/freezer and NEFF™ oven, microwave and induction hob with extractor over. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and a door from the kitchen opens onto the TERRACE.

Conveniently located on the GROUND FLOOR is a stylishly fitted SHOWER ROOM, complete with contemporary fixtures and finishes. This addition ensures comfort and accessibility for both residents and guests.

The property offers three well-appointed BEDROOMS on the first floor, each a sanctuary of tranquillity. All BEDROOMS come with built-in storage, ensuring ample space for your belongings while maintaining the room's airy feel. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM, in particular, is a haven of relaxation, featuring built-in wardrobes and a serene atmosphere. The BATHROOM is fitted with contemporary fixtures and finishes that ensure comfort and style.

Outside
The exterior of The Stables is as enchanting as its interior. Positioned in a peaceful corner on the edge of Puddletown, the property offers a sense of seclusion and serenity. The rear TERRACE is a standout feature, providing a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. This leads to a delightful, partially walled COURTYARD TERRACE, adorned with carefully selected planting that adds colour and fragrance throughout the year.

A short walk from the property takes you to a COMMUNAL GARDEN, a hidden gem filled with mature trees and shrubs. This tranquil space also includes a charming CHALET-STYLE SUMMER HOUSE, perfect for leisurely afternoons, meeting with and entertaining guests.

Parking is a breeze with both a GARAGE and additional OFF-STREET PARKING spaces, ensuring convenience for you and your guests. On a practical note there is an on-site laundry room plus guest suite.

Location
Nestled on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Puddletown, The Stables offers the best of both worlds: a tranquil rural setting with easy access to local amenities. Puddletown itself is a charming village with a strong sense of community, offering local shops, a well-regarded primary school, and beautiful countryside walks. The nearby town of Dorchester provides further amenities, including shopping, dining, and cultural attractions.
