Wareham is a Saxon walled market town on the banks of the River, with a wide range of amenities including shops, public houses, restaurants and cinema, with the train station providing a direct line to London Waterloo. The River also benefits from a marina and yacht club and gives boat access to Poole harbour.

At the heart of the property is a superbly appointed kitchen/breakfast room featuring tiled flagstone floors, ample storage, a Smeg range cooker, integrated appliances (including a fridge/freezer and dishwasher), and generous space for a dining table and chairs. Just off the kitchen is a useful utility room with further storage, and plumbing for both a washing machine and additional dishwasher. From the kitchen, French doors lead into a light-filled conservatory an ideal space to relax while enjoying views of the rear garden and woodland beyond.
The bright and airy living room enjoys a triple aspect and French doors that open out onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A separate study, complete with a wood-burning stove, offers a quiet retreat for working from home. Also on the ground floor is a formal dining room with a second wood-burning stove, a dedicated media room, and a downstairs WC.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five generously sized double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. Three of the bedrooms benefit from modern en-suite shower rooms, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining rooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, offering picturesque views over the rear garden and surrounding woodland.
Outside, the property is approached via a gated driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles and a detached garage. The rear garden is professionally designed and landscaped, south-facing and backing directly onto woodland. It features generous planting borders, raised beds, paved patios, and a built-in seating and barbecue area perfect for outdoor entertaining. A wildlife pond with a cascading waterfall made from local Purbeck stone adds a peaceful, natural element to the space. The garden is fully enclosed, offering excellent privacy and a serene outdoor setting.
Further outdoor features include a cedar-clad, insulated garden room with power, ideal as a studio or home office, a greenhouse, garden shed, and a workshop.
