Description
Located in the rural, Dorset village of Belchelwell, Whippletrees is an imposing dwelling constructed of predominantly reconstituted stone. The property sits centrally within its plot and boasts outstanding views from many of the rooms and garden of the nearby, undulating countryside. The accommodation is laid out favourably over two floors and comprises entrance hall, kitchen, utility and three reception rooms on the ground floor. Five well-proportioned bedrooms occupy the first floor along with both a bath and shower room.
SITUATION
Belchelwell is a quaint village nestled in the stunning Dorset countryside and the property is ideally located for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle. You can enjoy leisurely walks along scenic lanes, or take a short drive to the nearby village of Okeford Fitzpaine for the village shop and Post Office. Belch Elwell itself is steeped in history, with its Saxon origins and picturesque medieval church, St Aldhelm's Church. The village's quaint streets are home to just 30 properties and a close-knit community of fewer than a hundred residents. For added convenience, essential amenities and a doctors' surgery can be found in nearby Sturminster Newton. With mainline railway stations at Templecombe and Gillingham, commuting to London Waterloo is a breeze. The property is also conveniently situated near the charming towns of Sherborne, Blandford Forum, Gillingham, and Shaftesbury, offering a wide range of shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
OUTSIDE
A sweeping driveway approach from the lane provides ample parking for several vehicles around the willow tree, along with access to the outbuilding. The outbuilding, like the property, is substantial and currently divided into several stables, garage and workshop space but could offer a range of uses to future owners. The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and enjoys views over the rear paddock and the countryside beyond. The entire plot totals approximately 1.5 acres.
