Description
A splendid country residence set in the heart of Dorset's scenic countryside, offering a unique blend of historic charm and modern functionality. The ground floor of the main house welcomes you with a spacious entrance hall, setting the tone for its elegant interior. To the left, a large study provides an ideal home office with views over the garden. The drawing room is generously sized, while the adjoining sitting room offers a cosy area to relax with a view over the grounds. The snug, an intimate space ideal for quiet moments, is positioned near the dining room, a refined space for family meals and entertaining. The heart of the home is the large kitchen and breakfast room, complete with an AGA and ample room for informal dining. French doors lead to the terrace and garden. A utility room and boot room complete the ground floor, offering practical areas for storage and laundry.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is spacious with abundant natural light and an ensuite shower room. Bedroom two is equally generous making it an ideal guest or family room. Bedroom three is well-sized and close to the family bathroom, while bedrooms four and five offer versatility, whether for children, guests, or additional office space. A dressing room adjacent to these bedrooms provides convenient additional wardrobe space. The second floor features an expansive attic room offering potential as a playroom, studio, or additional storage area.
The garden has been carefully designed for relaxation and recreation. A beautifully manicured lawn stretches across rear of the property, bordered by vibrant flower beds with a mix of shrubs and hedges. These layers of plants provide gentle textures and colours that change with the seasons, creating year-round interest.
Beyond a row of tall, leafy hedges a secluded swimming pool area, hidden from view for complete privacy. The pool, bordered by natural stone tiles, is framed by lush greenery. This tranquil retreat, nestled in its own secluded corner, feels like an escape from the world, offering a serene and refreshing space to enjoy nature and relaxation at its finest.
There is a well-equipped stable block with four stalls. The garage/workshop offers a spacious and versatile area for vehicles, hobbies, or additional storage. An additional outbuilding includes a wood store, providing further functional storage space.
Location
The house is situated in a glorious position at the end of a no-through road, with outstanding views over the surrounding countryside. This area is particularly sought after due to the beautiful undulating landscape and its peace and tranquility. Whilst being very rural, it also has good transport links.
