Description
A spacious detached family house having elevations of whitened render and red brick under a tiled roof. The house offers versatile and well-presented accommodation over three floors which could be arranged to suit a variety of purchaser’s needs. There are wood floors to most rooms and oil-fired central heating to both the house and annexe. Within the last year, a new kitchen has been fitted and the house has been completely redecorated. A particular feature is the stunning outlook over the surrounding farmland, with principal rooms enjoying far reaching views down the valley at the front.
The front door opens into a glazed entrance porch and through into the hall with guest cloakroom. There are two good size reception rooms at the front with a connecting door, both having fireplaces and French doors, one having a conservatory leading off. The kitchen has been refitted with a range of units, and has a range cooker and dishwasher. There is a walk-in larder and a useful boot room/ utility room, with plumbing and space for washer and dryer, also housing the oil-fired boiler.
From the hall stairs lead up to the first floor landing with linen cupboards, three double bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes, and the spacious family bathroom with bath and separate shower. The staircase continues up to the second floor where there are three further bedrooms and a shower room with sauna cabin.
Outside
The house sits centrally on the plot with attractively laid out gardens on all sides. They are mainly lawned with wide variety of specimen trees and shrubs, beech hedges and fruit trees. There is a paved terrace at the front, with a covered loggia, a further shingle terrace at the rear with brick and flint walls surrounding a barbecue area and a Summer house.
The particularly impressive outbuilding incorporates a stylish one bedroom annexe with sitting room, kitchen with Miele appliances and bathroom, a large glazed studio/ games room with vaulted ceiling and a balcony terrace running around the outside, two store rooms, and a garden cloakroom/ shower room. This offers endless possibilities for a growing family including multigenerational living, use as a home office, or to provide a valuable rental income.
The shingle driveway leads to an extensive parking and turning area at the rear of the house. There is also an EV charging point.

Location
Crincombe Cottage enjoys a unique and very special location set in a completely private valley surrounded by farmland.
The approach is particularly impressive, about a mile along a private driveway owned by neighbouring Delcombe Farm, and flanked by beautiful countryside.
The entrance to the main drive is opposite the grounds of the historic Milton Abbey school and Abbey.
The house is about two miles from the centre of the delightful ‘model village’ of Milton Abbas, built in the late 1700’s, which has a church, pub and farm shop.
The Georgian market town of Blandford Forum is about 10 miles, offering excellent amenities including several major supermarkets, an M&S Foodhall and many local shops.
The County Town of Dorchester with mainline train station to London is about 12 miles, and the stunning UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coast is about 20 miles.
State schools are in Winterborne Whitechurch and Blandford, and further independent schools in the wider area include Bryanston, Sherborne, Clayesmore, Hanford and Sandroyd.
Square Footage: 2,918 sq ft
Acreage: 1.25 Acres
