The Courtyard offers a rare collection of three beautifully converted homes, combining contemporary living with far reaching views across the Purbeck landscape. Comprising THE DAIRY, THE GREAT BARN and THE LITTLE BARN, each dwelling has its own distinct character while sharing a cohesive sense of design and setting. Together they provide flexibility as a magnificent home with the potential of an income generating business on site.
THE DAIRY is arranged as single storey living, and until recently has been home to the vendors. Entering the HALLWAY, there is useful storage before the space opens into the magnificent LIVING SPACE. This room rises to a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. A well-appointed kitchen and generous dining area sit comfortably within this space, alongside a seating area filled with natural light from the floor to ceiling picture windows that frame the view towards Corfe Castle. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys similarly impressive views, with a SHOWER ROOM close by. Across the hall, BEDROOM TWO overlooks the paddocks, while to the opposite wing BEDROOM FOUR looks towards Corfe Castle. A contemporary FAMILY BATHROOM serves this side, along with BEDROOM THREE, a further double with vaulted ceiling and its own EN SUITE SHOWER ROOM.
THE GREAT BARN offers a dramatic reverse living layout. A spectacular HALLWAY with stone flooring leads to BATHROOM ONE and BEDROOM ONE. Beyond, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a generous space, accompanied by BATHROOM TWO where a long window offers views across gardens. A further BEDROOM sits at the end of the hall. Stairs rise past a striking window that draws in light and views towards the Manor House, arriving at the main living level. Here, a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams defines a series of seating and dining areas, while a separate KITCHEN enjoys views both into the courtyard and across the gardens.
THE LITTLE BARN is an intimate retreat, also arranged with reverse living. Stairs lead to the KITCHEN / LIVING AREA, where elevated views stretch across Purbeck towards Corfe Castle. Below, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys dual aspect views, but primarily spectacular views of Corfe Castle set within the Valley, while BEDROOM TWO overlooks the gardens. A BATHROOM and useful storage complete the accommodation.
Outside
The Barns are approached along a private lane which opens out to reveal spectacular views across Purbeck towards Corfe Castle. They sit within a wider estate of approximately 30 acres, comprising paddocks and bluebell woods. To describe the setting as impressive would be an understatement
it is of cinematic proportions.
Within the courtyard there is plentiful PARKING, along with an additional barn currently used as a covered recreational space, ideal for table tennis or informal gatherings on rainy days. There is also a dedicated LAUNDRY ROOM set up to manage linen for changeovers (should you be letting part of the property), together with a separate outdoor area where lines are positioned to dry laundry in the fresh meadow air. In addition, there is a sheltered ALFRESCO DINING spot that is ideal for barbeques.
Beyond the courtyard, there is potential to negotiate additional land alongside the barns.
Investment
The two barns have operated successfully as holiday lets for over 30 years, with THE DAIRY recently introduced as an additional letting unit. The family are happy to share both historic trading figures and forward bookings with any interested investor. A housekeeping service currently manages changeovers, supported by the on site facilities which allow for efficient and streamlined turnarounds between guests.
Location
Scoles enjoys easy access to all that the Purbeck has to offer. Wareham, the local market town, remains unspoilt and sits on the River Frome, with two trains per hour to London Waterloo. Swanage is a thriving seaside town with gently shelving sandy beaches, a theatre, independent shops, galleries and restaurants, together with a steam rail connection to Corfe Castle.
For sailing enthusiasts, options are plentiful, including East Dorset Sailing Club, Swanage Sailing Club, and Redclyffe Sailing Club.
Numerous local livery options are nearby including Lulworth, while Studland offers some of the most spectacular coastal riding in the region.
Purbecks cultural offering is equally impressive. Purbeck Art Weeks runs annually for over a month, while the Purbeck Film Festival hosts screenings in remarkable settings including castle grounds, outdoor amphitheatres and the magnificent 'Cathedral of Purbeck', just minutes away.
Whether dining at waterfront restaurants, enjoying lakeside lunches, or making use of the public barbecues on Studland Beach, the area offers endless opportunities for entertaining family and friends.
