A good sized, two-storey family home in a lovely rural setting with views out over surrounding countryside. It was built in 1990 using locally quarried Marnhull and Purbeck stone that was hand-shaped for use in period homes in North Dorset and then reclaimed. The house has an east/west axis so that it attracts the best of the available natural light throughout the day. The rooms all have good ceiling heights and the ground floor rooms are arranged in a layout that flows beautifully, giving a wonderful feeling of space and light. This overall feel is amplified by wide windows and light coloured, engineered oak flooring and joinery that is used throughout much of the house. The hall is positioned centrally with a large sitting room on one side, equipped with a wood-burning stove and oak floor, and the garden room on the other, with a vaulted ceiling and French windows that look out across the garden. The combined kitchen/dining room is at the far end of the hall and is fitted with a tiled floor and units including a central island under oak work surfaces, along with a range of electric appliances including an induction hob. The ground floor also incorporates a utility room and separate boot room fitted with a pet shower along with a guest bedroom with its own ensuite shower room. Upstairs off a central landing are a total of four bedrooms and the family bath and shower room, all with views out over the surrounding farmland. The principal bedroom is filled with natural light, and benefits from its own an ensuite shower room and private roof terrace with far-reaching views. The smallest of the bedrooms is currently used as a home office.

At a right angle to the main house so that it does not impinge on privacy, is a large, stone and brick-built and south-facing annexe/garage block. The annexe is all on one floor and is entirely self-contained comprising a living room, kitchen, utility room, double bedroom and bathroom. The annexe has been used initially by the current owners as an annexe for elderly parents and latterly, with great success, as accommodation to attract a steady rental income. To one side of the annexe is a double garage with workshop space at the rear and a first floor storage loft that has potential as a home office. To one side of the annexe/garage block is a former, timber built double stable block that is now used for storage plus a good-sized poultry run.
