Description
Nestled in the heart of the Dorset countryside, this beautifully extended character property offers a rare opportunity to own a spacious, versatile home in a peaceful rural setting, within walking distance of Moors Valley Country Park and Ringwood Forest. Perfect for families, those working from home, or buyers seeking income potential, this unique home blends period charm with modern practicality.
Originally dating back to the 19th century, the cob-built home retains many original features including exposed oak beams, an inglenook fireplace, and cottage-style doors, tastefully combined with modern upgrades and thoughtful extensions.
A rear door opens into a practical utility room and cloakroom with WC, leading into the heart of the home: a charming farmhouse kitchen fitted with painted oak units, granite worktops, and a full range of integrated appliances—including a Range Cooker with gas hob and four electric ovens, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.
The spacious L-shaped sitting and dining room is ideal for entertaining or relaxing, with double-glazed garden doors, a feature wood-burning stove, and rich oak beam detailing throughout.
The first floor offers four bedrooms—three well-proportioned doubles with fitted wardrobes and a single room with a bespoke corner desk and shelving. A stylish family bathroom with tiled floor is complemented by a separate shower room, providing ample facilities for a growing family.
On the ground floor, an internal hallway leads to an additional living area with its own kitchen, living room, bedroom and shower room, offering excellent annexe potential, home office space, or a private guest suite. This section has its own garden access but forms part of the main house.
A cob-walled garden room, currently used for storage, also offers scope for various uses (STPP).
Set in just under 1 acre, the property is approached via a gravel track leading to a wooden five-bar gate, which opens into the front garden with a generous parking and turning area.
A separate gated yard lies beyond, offering complete privacy and housing a purpose-built wooden garage with power—perfect for secure storage, workshop use, or hobbies. The grounds include mature planting and areas of meadow grass and light woodland, creating a peaceful and natural environment.
Situated in the village of Three Legged Cross, just 4 miles from the thriving market town of Ringwood, with a wealth of local amenities in Verwood, West Moors, and Ferndown. Excellent transport links via the A31 and A338 provide swift access to Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, and further afield to Southampton, Winchester, and London via the M27/M3.
With its peaceful setting, generous accommodation, and outstanding lifestyle potential, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of rural charm, modern convenience, and future flexibility.
