The Conifers is an impressive property and has been a wonderful home for our current owners for many years. Coming to the market for only the second time since it was built in 1992, this four-double-bedroom, four-bathroom home offers an abundance of space and flexible accommodation, yet still manages to feel homely and comfortable. The magnificent mature gardens, on a plot of approximately half an acre (STMS) are an absolute delight. The property and grounds have been extensively improved and beautifully maintained and still offer enormous potential to develop or extend further.

Visitors will first encounter the Mediterranean style PORCH, with its practical tiled floor and large feature window, ensuring light floods through; it is an ideal spot for removing shoes and boots after a good walk in The Purbecks or around the gardens. The porch leads to an INNER HALLWAY and a very useful HOME OFFICE, perfect for working from home with a built-in desk and an extensive range of fitted furniture. There is a BOOT ROOM on the other side of the hallway, where coats and boots can be tucked out of sight. BEDROOM 4 is also on the ground floor level and could be ideal as an ANNEXE, as it has an external door leading to the side of the house and its own en-suite bathroom, consisting of a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC. Stairs from the entrance hallway lead to a half-landing and access to all the main living rooms. The KITCHEN is a bright modern space with dual aspect windows and lovely views over the garden. It has plenty of storage with an extensive range of base and wall units and drawers, pull out larder and integrated double ovens, fridge/freezer, five-ring gas hob and extractor fan, dishwasher, tumble dryer and space for a washing machine. There is a separate cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and a door leads out to the patio area via a small porch. The DINING ROOM next door to the kitchen has space for a large dining table perfect for entertaining guests and double-glazed sliding doors opening out to the conservatory. The dining room flows through to the spacious, dual aspect SITTING ROOM, a bright and relaxing space with a feature fireplace and additional sliding double glazed doors out to the conservatory. These two lovely reception rooms are linked by the large, south facing CONSERVATORY, a wonderful space to sit and enjoy the garden or a spot of informal lunch or afternoon tea! The conservatory has double glazed windows and two sets of UPVC patio doors leading out to the garden and patio and all the windows and the ceiling have fitted blinds to keep the space cool. There is also a separate CLOAKROOM on this level. Stairs lead to the SECOND FLOOR LANDING which has a VELUX™ window ensuring lots of light and provides access to BEDROOM 2, a generous double bedroom, with built-in wardrobes, eaves storage and views over the front garden and hills beyond. This bedroom is serviced by a large BATHROOM just across the hallway which has double vanity enclosed wash basins with storage beneath, a low-level WC, a bidet, an indulgent corner bath and a separate enclosed shower cubicle. Stairs lead to the THIRD FLOOR LANDING and the PRINCIPAL SUITE, a wonderful retreat consisting of a beautifully presented and spacious double bedroom, incorporating a wall of built-in wardrobes and matching built-in furniture and double glazed doors opening to a Juliet balcony with stunning views over the gardens. This bedroom has a luxurious EN-SUITE BATH/SHOWER ROOM consisting of double hand basins with vanity storage beneath, a low level WC, bath and separate shower cubicle. BEDROOM 3 is also on this level, another generous double bedroom, again with views over the garden. There is a further FAMILY BATHROOM directly next door to this bedroom which has a bath, hand basin with vanity unit and WC.

This is an exceptional and special family home in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck and we cannot recommend a viewing highly enough.

Outside
The gardens, parking, and views that The Conifers provide are truly exceptional. Starting at the front of the house, the pea-shingle DRIVEWAY offers an impressive amount of PARKING for several vehicles and two mature stocked island beds, and a large SHED. The beautiful mature REAR GARDENS are south facing and wonderful! An absolute credit to our owners, who have loved and nurtured them over many years, they are now ready for a new family to sit back and enjoy. The gardens are approximately half an acre (STMS) and a gardener and entertainers’ dream. There are stunning views over the Purbeck hills from a number of spots within the garden. A large PATIO AREA directly outside the kitchen and conservatory is perfect for lying back and enjoying the sun or dining with friends. The gardens are laid out across a number of tiered lawns and linked by an impressive grand central stone staircase, punctuated by stone urns stocked with shrubs. The garden is packed with interesting trees, shrubs, plants and flowers and enclosed by hedging borders. On the lower tier there is a feature POND which is well stocked with Koi Carp and other fish and incorporates two water features. Towards the rear of the garden there are several fruit trees including cherry and apple and also a large GREENHOUSE and a SUMMER HOUSE with power which could be an ideal HOME OFFICE. Outside taps are provided on each tier of the garden.
