A rare chance to purchase a substantial detached period residence offering around 2893 sq. Ft (269 sq. M) of versatile space, situated in 0.6 acres of secluded grounds, boasting five double bedrooms, four reception rooms and located in the small hamlet of Puxey, which lies on the fringe of the market town of Sturminster Newton.
This beautiful property, thought to have been built in 1800s, boasts a wealth of character and space, perfect for an existing or growing family with ample space for all to enjoy their own special sanctuary. The property also lends itself ideally for multi-generational living with a ground floor bedroom, large adaptable bathroom and reception room that is currently used as the boot room.
A fabulous addition to the property is the sunroom with its pitched ceiling and exposed timbers providing a great place to relax and unwind, while enjoying the natural light and view over the private garden. Merging old world charm and modern day expectations, the property keeps hold of its heritage with the original Victorian fireplaces, exposed wood flooring and ceiling beams as well as cottage style uPVC double glazed windows - some with seats. Outside, the choice of parking areas makes the best possible use of space with a gated area - great for caravans, boats and so forth and is close to barn, which has an electric supply, whilst closer to the house there is a large gravelled area with ample space for cars.
Situated on 0.6 acres of land, this residence offers a sense of tranquillity and privacy, with mature gardens and has an idyllic location, backing onto fields, providing a peaceful retreat for both children and pets to roam and play freely. The convenient location of the house makes it easily accessible to the town, offering the perfect balance between rural living and urban amenities.
This is an opportunity not to be missed and it is strongly urged that a viewing is arranged quickly so as not to miss out on being the next owner.
