**** Price Guide £675,000 - £700,000 *****
A beautifully presented country cottage, this substantial property combines timeless character with modern comfort, situated at the foot of Hambledon Hill with views of the hill and far reaching views over Dorset countryside.
Inside, the property offers spacious and versatile accommodation. The country-style kitchen leads to a useful utility/boot room and cloakroom, while three large reception rooms provide elegant spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. Features include fireplaces, exposed wooden floorboards and large picture windows that flood the rooms with natural light and capture the surrounding scenery.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. There is an outstanding principal suite which boasts fitted wardrobes, a luxurious en-suite, dressing room and far-reaching views, while the additional bedrooms offer charm, character with equally lovely outlooks.
Externally, the large mature garden is planted with a variety of specimen shrubs and fruit trees, attracting an abundance of wildlife. To the front there is a large hedge which affords the property a great deal of privacy. A gravelled driveway to the rear offers generous parking, and is accessed via a private drive. To the side there is an array of raised vegetable beds, a timber shed.
Located on the outskirts of the highly desirable village of Child Okeford, this home is just moments from a range of amenities including two pubs, a general store with post office, an organic farm shop, doctor’s surgery, primary school and nursery.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of real presence, combining generous proportions, period elegance and stunning views, in one of Dorset’s most sought-after villages.
Child Okeford is one of North Dorset’s most desirable villages, set at the foot of the iconic Hambledon Hill with its sweeping countryside views, ancient earthworks and endless walking trails. Surrounded by rolling farmland and the River Stour, the village offers the perfect balance of rural charm and everyday convenience.
The community is exceptionally well served. There is a popular village shop and post office, an organic farm shop and café, two friendly pubs, a well-regarded primary school with nursery, a doctor’s surgery with dispensary, and a village hall that hosts a wide range of clubs, events and activities throughout the year. The village also has an active church, a children’s playground, and sports facilities including a cricket pitch.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, Hambledon Hill and Hod Hill provide some of the best walking and cycling routes in Dorset, while the nearby River Stour is perfect for peaceful riverside strolls. Wildlife is abundant, and the surrounding countryside offers a true taste of rural Dorset living.
Despite its peaceful setting, Child Okeford is well connected. The larger town of Blandford Forum is just a short drive away for supermarkets, secondary schools and further amenities, while Shaftesbury, Sherborne and Salisbury are also within easy reach. The A350 and A354 offer good road links, and there are mainline rail services to London Waterloo from Gillingham and Salisbury.
