Kingston, Sturminster Newton, Dorset

A secluded edge of village house with barns and stabling complimenting its holding of 8.21 acres.

The Dwelling - The house was built some 32 years ago specifically for the owners and now has scope for updating and extension, subject to the usual consents. In an elevated spot at the end of the long driveway, there are fine southerly views across the Blackmore Vale towards Bulbarrow and across to the Dorset Gap.

Below and facing away from the house is the extensive barn with plenty of its own potential possibly through a Class Q scheme. In addition there is a stable block with immediate access to the larger top field.

The fields give a wonderful backdrop to the homestead bordering the drive and gardens. With the main field accessed from the stables or the driveway, it links to the further field with dilapidated field shelter. There is a link to the Hardy Way foot path from outside the driveway as well as linking towards Silly Hill via another path to the north.

Accommodation - Please refer to the floor plan. The house was not built to an excessive size as it was designed around the previous owners' needs. There is an old glass house / conservatory to the northern side of the house giving a good footprint to work with.

Outside - From the village lane, the long drive brings you through the gardens to an extensive parking area. A path then leads up to the front and back doors of the house.

To the southern side is a large barn, away from the house, as well as 3 stables bordering the top, larger field. In total, there is some 8.21 acres including house, 2 fields, drive and gardens. Please refer to Promap plan.

Situation - Kingston is one of several hamlets that make up the parish of Hazelbury Bryan, which is surrounded by breath-taking countryside. Hazelbury Bryan has a shop with post office, primary school, public house and village hall. Sturminster Newton, which is the nearest market town, offers a good range of shops, schools and other amenities.
