Bi-fold doors open directly onto the gardens, effortlessly connecting inside and out. An adjoining family room provides further informal living space, while a separate cinema/sitting room offers the perfect retreat for cosy evenings. Underfloor heating and air conditioning to parts of the property add to the comfort and quality of the home.

A truly special country home combining space, style and flexibility with a lifestyle that is very difficult to replicate.

Holtwood is a particularly attractive rural hamlet, quietly positioned to the north of historic Wimborne Minster and surrounded by beautiful Dorset countryside. Close to the distinctive Horton Tower, a well-known local landmark, the area offers a wonderful setting for walking, cycling and enjoying a relaxed country lifestyle.

Despite its rural feel, Wimborne is within easy reach, offering an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while the wider area provides highly regarded schooling and good connections towards Poole, Bournemouth and the south coast.
