Property Description

Escape to the country with a stay in this charming barn conversion, nestled within a working farm in verdant North Dorset. Enjoy days spent walking, touring, or simply relaxing beside the wood burner. Situated within the scenic Blackmore Vale, this property is an ideal base for hikers and cyclists. Nearby Marnhull (1.5 miles) offers essential amenities, while Sturminster Newton provide a wider array of conveniences (3 miles). Within 14 miles history buffs can explore Milton Abbas and Cerne Abbas with its famous chalk giant, or head to the pretty honey coloured streets of Sherborne, home to two castles. Venture 25 miles south to the breathtaking Jurassic Coast, where Lulworth Cove, Abbotsbury, and Ringstead Bay await exploration. Take the stone path to the entrance door into this attached former barn, which sits adjacent to the owners' home, yet with privacy assured. Once inside you'll be met with a welcoming entrance hall, with room for boots and coats. Next there is a hallway leading to the first of two bedrooms. This room is a cosy double with a fabulous contemporary bathroom next door. You can enjoy a soak in the free standing bath or a refreshing shower in the separate cubicle. As you head further into the property you'll find a stunning open plan living space, complete with vaulted ceiling and oak beams. Cleverly divided into zones, there is a country style kitchen in one corner and room to dine in comfort just opposite. Completing the room is an inviting lounge area, arranged beside the wood burner and furnished with a Smart TV so you can enjoy your favourite shows. Just next door is the remaining double bedroom, which has its own en suite wet room. Double doors lead from the open plan living space into the garden. There is a gravel terrace immediately to the rear, complete with furniture ideal for al fresco dining. A lawn leads on from here and is bordered by established shrubs which screen the garden from the pastureland beyond it. To the front of the property is a dog wash tap, perfect for rinsing off muddy paws (or boots) after a long walk.
