Introduction - Eddy Green Farm lies in a semi-rural position just outside the village of Lytchett Matravers. Surrounded by open countryside, its elevated position offers far-reaching views across Poole Harbour to the Purbeck Hills beyond. Believed to date as far back as the 1500’s, what was originally a farmhouse has been rebuilt and remodelled, most recently in the 1960s, to create a generously proportioned and welcoming family home in a truly outstanding position.

The Property - A magnificent country family home situated in a semi-rural location, on an elevated position allowing for views toward Purbeck and Poole Harbour.

The local area also boasts some of the country's most exquisite coastline, including Poole Harbour and marina, Sandbanks and Studland beaches and the world-famous Jurassic Coast.

Accommodation - The home was a former farm cottage and may have roots dating as far back as the 1500s; however, the main building was rebuilt in the 1960s after a fire and has large, warm and welcoming rooms.

Like all good farm homes, there is a drawing room, a lovely dining room coupled with a convenient boot/gun room, and a pantry, as well as several reception areas for a growing family or to host family gatherings.
