Designed in a period style yet built with all the advantages of a contemporary home, this house blends classic character with modern comfort, creating a property that is elegant, practical, and finished to an excellent standard throughout. The thatch was completely renewed, including the ridge, in September 2025. Set in a desirable village location with everyday amenities, it appeals equally to families, those seeking a second home, retirees, or buyers looking for a reliable investment.
Inside, the HALLWAY sets a welcoming first impression, leading into a generously proportioned SITTING ROOM. This is a bright and comfortable space, with an integrated wood burner set within a brick surround creating a natural focal point, and French doors that open directly onto the garden for an easy flow between indoors and outdoors. The KITCHEN is another highlight, with a 5-ring double oven cooker, ample wall and floor mounted units providing excellent storage, and space for further white goods, making the room both stylish and highly functional. A door gives additional access to the garden, while an adjacent UTILITY ROOM provides more work surfaces, a sink, and plumbing for further appliances. Completing the ground floor is a CLOAKROOM with wash hand basin and W.C., adding everyday convenience.
Upstairs, the galleried LANDING is open and light, providing a sense of space and connecting the first-floor rooms elegantly. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a spacious and restful retreat, filled with natural light and offering plenty of room for freestanding furniture, complemented by a contemporary and stylish ENSUITE with shower cubicle, W.C., and wash hand basin. The second BEDROOM is also a comfortable double, ideal for children, guests, or as a welcoming space for visiting family. The third BEDROOM, centrally situated between the others, is also able to accommodate a double bed and furniture, further showcasing the property's flexibility and space. The BATHROOM is finished to a high standard, with contemporary fittings presented in a classic style, including a bath with shower over, wash basin, and W.C. Each room is presented immaculately, reflecting the same attention to detail seen throughout the house.
Outside
Outside, the ENCLOSED REAR GARDEN provides a private and secure setting for outdoor dining, relaxation, or play, designed to be attractive yet easy to maintain. To the front there is PRIVATE PARKING together with a SINGLE GARAGE and a SEPARATE CAR PORT, ensuring ample space for vehicles and everyday convenience.
The location enhances the property further. Positioned within a well-connected village, it offers the charm of a close-knit community alongside practical amenities such as shops, schools, and transport links. Surrounded by countryside, the setting provides opportunities for walking, leisure, and enjoying the outdoors. With its combination of style, comfort, and convenience, this house is well suited as a family home, a weekend retreat, a place to downsize, or a sound investment.
Location
This stunning property is nestled within the village of Milborne St Andrew. The village itself is ideally located within close proximity of the main route between the County town of Dorchester, with its mainline railway station (London Waterloo), famous weekly market and reputable schools, and Blandford Forum with its boutique-style shops, tea rooms and riverside walks.
