A substantial five bedroom family house situated close to the village edge, with gardens and paddock in excess of half an acre
Description
Home Farm House was built some 25 years ago and is well positioned in its ample overall plot of approx. three quarters of an acre.
The house, built of brick and block under a tiled roof, offers versatile accommodation over three floors, and our clients have owned the house for almost twenty years. It enjoys a modern layout with intercommunicating ‘open plan’ living space comprising a galleried reception hall, large drawing room with fireplace and a large kitchen/dining/family room opening onto the garden. There is a utility room and guest cloakroom. The upper floors offer five bedrooms in all. There is a spacious principal bedroom with en suite bathroom, further guest bedroom with en suite bathroom, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The second floor is an enormous space providing a wonderful bedroom suite with study/reception area and en suite. There are extensive fitted wardrobes throughout the first floor.
Outside
There is a well screened area of lawn to the east of the house predominantly laid to lawn. The paddock is found across the lane on the south side of the house and is bordered by the private lane. It is fenced and has mature hedging. Entered via a five bar gate.
The drive offers generous parking for numerous vehicles and access to the garage and car port.
Location
Fontmell Magna is a charming village on the Blackmore Vale, with a strong community, an active village hall, public house and shop. The village itself lies between the two thriving market towns of Shaftesbury (4.5 miles) and Blandford Forum (9 miles), both of which offer a wide range of day-to-day amenities including medical, dental and veterinarian surgeries. Sherborne (20 miles), Salisbury (26 miles) and Bath (36 miles) all offer a much wider range of leisure, cultural and shopping amenities.
For transport links, there is a direct rail service from Gillingham (9.7 miles) to Waterloo (2 hours) and from Castle Cary (23 miles) to Paddington (90 minutes).Bournemouth Airport is about a 40-minute drive away and Bristol, Exeter and Southampton offer a wider range of domestic and international flights, all within a reasonable drive.
The surrounding area is renowned for its educational choice from both the state and private sectors. The choice from the latter is extensive and includes Clayesmore, Bryanston, Milton Abbey, Canford, the Sherborne schools, Hanford, Knighton House, Leweston, Sandroyd, Hazlegrove and Port Regis.
