Historical Background

'Lilliput House' was begun and completed by The Rev. H G Watkins in 1894, a truly handsome and well appointed Victorian residence that clearly would have been one of the areas most magnificent estates. Boasting an abundance of period features which can still be seen in the house today the property has stood the test of time through two major world wars and an array of reconfiguration works throughout the years.

Description

From the mosaic tiled floor in the Entrance Vestibule to the oak panelled walls and Victorian Cornicing, Lilliput House offers an elegant marriage of period living set within an idyllic coastal location. Four bedrooms make up the first floor, all bar one, enjoying picturesque views into Poole Harbour. The Studio above the double garage, provides further accommodation should one require a fifth bedroom or annexe. The dinning room / family room is the focal point of the property with its French polished oak floor and fascinating oak carvings. The Aga is the feature in the kitchen / breakfast room as well as the double doors onto the well maintained terraces and gardens.
