ACCOMODATION

The property has undergone an extensive programme of works to create well laid out, adaptable accommodation with good-sized rooms. The heart of the home is the triple-aspect open-plan kitchen and living space, centred around a large bi-fold door opening onto the deck. A well-designed utility/mud room with shower room leads out to a courtyard, ideal for boots, dogs and outdoor kit. There are two double and two single bedrooms, offering flexibility for families, guests or a home office.

ANNEXE

The self-contained studio annexe currently accommodates up to four people and has been run as a successful holiday let. Equally, it lends itself to visiting family and friends, multi-generational living or use as a dedicated workspace or base for a home business. It has a comprehensive kitchenette and bathroom.

OUTSIDE

The garden wraps around the property, providing excellent privacy and a wonderful sense of space. It has been completely re-landscaped since 2022 and is largely laid to lawn, making it easy to maintain yet offering plenty of scope for a keen gardener. An orchard produces apples, pears and plums, while a well-planned courtyard with vegetable beds and two sheds completes this generous plot.

SITUATION

Child Okeford is a thriving village, set between the River Stour and Hambledon Hill. It offers an excellent range of amenities including a village shop, post office, organic farm shop, church, pub, doctor’s surgery with dispensary, two community halls and a primary school with nursery. The nearby towns of Blandford Forum and Shaftesbury provide a wider choice of shops, supermarkets and services, with mainline rail links to London Waterloo from Gillingham and Tisbury. Salisbury, Poole and Bath are all accessible by road, and the A303 is around 30 minutes to the north, giving fast access to the South West and to London via the M3.
