Spacious modern country house in this rarely available location, set amongst the heathland of the rspb Arne Nature Reserve.

Description
A spacious modern country house built in the mid 1980’s having pleasing elevations of red brick and tile hanging under a tiled roof. The house has the benefit of an air source heat pump for the central heating, double glazed windows, and a recently refitted family shower room. The house offers spacious accommodation with generous room sizes and many rooms in the house enjoy views across the gardens to the nature reserve, and Poole Harbour in the distance.

An entrance porch and front door open into the hall, with wood floor, feature curved brick wall and understairs cupboard. The study/ fifth bedroom has an en suite shower room that also doubles as a guest cloakroom. The sitting room has a feature stone fireplace with log burner and French doors to the conservatory with lovely open views. The large dining room has patio doors to the terrace, and has a door to the kitchen/ breakfast room. This is fitted with a range of oak fronted units with quartz surfaces including a dishwasher, double oven and ceramic hob. A separate utility/ boot room has a sink, plumbing and space for washer and dryer, and doors to the cloakroom and outside.

From the hall, a staircase with balustrading leads to the first floor landing with airing and storage cupboards. The main bedroom has double aspect windows with open views, built in wardrobes plus eaves storage, and an en suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms which share the refitted family shower room, with glazed shower, basin and WC.

There are several terraces perfect for outdoor entertaining, and numerous other sitting areas to enjoy at different times of the day. The Summer House has light and power.
