Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Dorset's most picturesque villages, this striking, architecturally reimagined home combines beautifully proportioned interiors with an exceptional riverside setting. The garden stretches all the way to the crystal-clear waters of the River Stour, offering direct frontage, private mooring and fishing rights. This is a rare and highly coveted feature that enhances the peaceful, outdoor lifestyle on offer.
The house has undergone a substantial programme of extension and remodelling to create a home that is both spacious and refined. From the moment you step into the vaulted ENTRANCE HALL, there is a sense of light and scale that continues throughout. An oak staircase rises elegantly through the centre, framed by porcelain-tiled floors with underfloor heating across both levels, and bespoke finishes throughout.
At the heart of the home is a magnificent open-plan KITCHEN, DINING and LIVING SPACE. A large skylight and full-width sliding glass doors flood the room with natural light, opening onto a wide terrace that leads seamlessly into the garden. This is a room designed for both entertaining and everyday life, with uninterrupted views across the grounds.
The KITCHEN is superbly appointed with a bespoke combination of wood veneer and painted cabinetry, finished with quartz worktops. Siemens™ appliances include twin ovens with steam and microwave functions, twin induction hobs, a teppanyaki hotplate, and an integrated dishwasher. There is also a full-height fridge and freezer, a larder cupboard, and a boiling water tap. The central island with breakfast bar forms a natural gathering point in this sociable, light-filled space.
Also on the ground floor is a fifth BEDROOM or STUDY, alongside a sleek SHOWER ROOM, ideal for guests or working from home. A large UTILITY ROOM offers extensive built-in storage, space for laundry appliances and access to the rear garden. Internal access is also available to the integral GARAGE.
Upstairs, the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is particularly impressive. A vaulted ceiling and full-height window bring in morning light, with glazed doors opening to a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and river. A DRESSING ROOM, fitted storage and a luxury EN SUITE BATHROOM with sunken bath and walk-in shower complete this tranquil retreat.
There are three further DOUBLE BEDROOMS on the first floor, all generously proportioned and well finished. These are served by a contemporary FAMILY BATHROOM with corner bath and overhead shower. Consistent design and excellent natural light continue throughout the home.
Outside
Outside, the rear of the house opens onto a raised TERRACE with wide steps down to a lower PATIO that is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. There is a HOT TUB, a fully powered GARDEN STUDIO ideal as a home office or gym, and an expansive LAWN punctuated with mature trees and planting. The garden extends down to the riverbank, where a decked SEATING AREA provides a private place to enjoy the water, whether fishing, launching a small boat or simply relaxing in the peace and quiet.
This is a property that blends lifestyle, comfort and design in an outstanding natural setting. Every detail has been considered to make daily life feel both luxurious and effortless, with nature on view from almost every room and the water always close at hand.
