Glebe Farmhouse

This property is a classic piece of old Dorset in a rural and peaceful village deep in the Dorset countryside with a pub to its centre. This sale constitutes a rare and unusual opportunity. A traditional detached three bedroom stone farmhouse with huge character with a lovely stone façade and character features including an open fireplace, a newel staircase, window seats and stone mullion windows; country living at its best. The accommodation is conventionally laid out with three rooms on the ground floor complimented by a good dog and boot/utility room and three bedrooms above with a family bathroom. The property has oil fired central heating complemented by the oil fired Aga.

The Byre

The annexe provides additional accommodation that could either be brought into use for the main body of the house or used for intergenerational living. The annexe has a large living room with a kitchen area to one end and sitting area to the other which focuses on a fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove. To the other end there are two good bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

The Barn

The Barn is genuinely all about what it could be and not what it is today. Subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents it could be substantially reconfigured and extended to create outstanding contemporary accommodation with a traditional exterior.

Outside

Behind the farmhouse is a charming fully enclosed courtyard garden. To the front, there is a driveway laid to stone chippings. On the other side of the byre there is a second area of garden and area of parking laid to paving. On the south side of The Barn there is a large area of courtyard laid to a hardstand with another barn opposite, that is in need of refurbishment, framing the space. On the west side, there is a parking area and an area of hardstand that was formerly the floor for a covered barn that could make further garden or indeed additional parking. Behind, the ground rises and has in the past been laid to grass and would make an ideal blank canvas for a keen gardener and is punctuated by a number of mature trees including a high yielding Apple.
