Personal Statement

This has been our family home since 1962 and we will be sad to leave. We originally built it to be close to the watercress farm where I worked, and it has been enlarged and altered to make a home for ourselves and so our two boys could enjoy growing up in this lovely area near Cranborne Chase. The ancient holy well spring is just a few feet from our garden and a stone commemorates this as a healing spring for people coming from Cripplestyle to drink from the holy waters [so the legend says] and now supplies the bungalow with fresh spring water on tap.

Spacious entrance hall with natural stone tiles from the hall through to the kitchen.

Dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room featuring cream units, granite countertop and a stunning elevated view over the garden patio and watercress farm in the distance.

Vast triple aspect lounge/dining room with a lovely feature wood burner. French doors lead out and give an uninterrupted view of the large patio and garden with its lawns and flower borders. All surrounded by beach and coniferous hedges for privacy.

Separate utility room and lobby giving access out via pedestrian door to the rear/side patio.

Beautifully appointed and fully tiled three piece family bathroom.

Owner's suite boasting walk-in wardrobe and fantastic size fully tiled four piece en-suite.
