Property description

The Stables is a truly exceptional, bespoke modern home, meticulously designed and constructed in 2001 to create a versatile and beyond generous family home.

This beautiful home is finished to a very high specification, immaculately presented throughout and boasts a wealth of attributes worthy of mention. These include the exposed bespoke joinery evident in the doors and staircase, focal piece Jet Master open fireplace, 'heart of the home' custom made fitted kitchen with a glorious electric AGA and granite work tops.

The arrangement of the accommodation provides huge versatility and is readily adaptable. In particular, the arrangement of the living and sleeping accommodation lends itself to any type of purchaser. The divided sleeping areas are ideal as guest and child accommodation, with the stunning master suite separate to both. The living accommodation, whilst vast and flexible is large enough for a busy family but not overwhelming for a couple. It is a truly the epitome of a well balanced home.

This substantial property occupies a wonderful and discreet position in the heart of the village of Farnham, which is highly regarded as one of the most desirable villages in Dorset. The property is set back from the village road and offers a wealth of privacy and provides charming rural village views from all primary rooms.

Situation
The Stables is situated in Farnham, one of the most attractive villages within the delightful unspoilt countryside of the Cranborne Chase. The village has a church and a great public house, The Museum, whilst nearby Blandford Forum (8 miles) offers an excellent range of amenities including two supermarkets, a range of shops, a small hospital, doctors' and dentists' surgeries. The cathedral town of Salisbury (18 miles) offers a more extensive range of facilities including bars, cafes, restaurants, independent and high street shops and a train station offering regular train services to London Waterloo (85 minutes).

The surrounding countryside of Farnham is an ideal place for riding, walking and other outdoor pursuits whilst nearby Rushmore Park has a fine 18 hole golf course. Poole Harbour is not too far away and is perfect for those that enjoy water sports and yachting

Farnham is surrounded by a great variety of independent schools including Bryanston, Clayesmore, Milton Abbey, St Mary’s School Shaftesbury, Sandroyd and Port Regis.

Outside
The property has a very impressive approach through imposing brick pillars with attractive double iron gates which are electrically operated via intercom and remote control offering a high degree of security. A sweeping shingle driveway which is bordered by a belt of mature beech and copper beech trees on one side and established shrubs on the other, curves around to a parking area adjacent to the front door. The drive continues on to the integral double garage, and to a turning and parking area.

The gardens extend to about 0.6 acres, and are mostly laid to areas of lawn with some fine trees and an extensive array of specimen shrubs. The house sits centrally within its plot and enjoys fantastic aspects across adjoining parkland and farmland.

At the rear of the house, and approached by French doors from the drawing room is a large sunny paved and brick terrace, perfect for outdoor entertaining and dining al fresco.

On the opposite side of the house is a charming secluded courtyard, bounded by one of the original farm walls and gate, also paved and having flower and shrub borders. This tranquil spot can be enjoyed from the sitting area just off the main reception hall, which has double French doors leading out onto this courtyard.
