Charming Four Bedroom Detached Cottage with Additional Two Bedroom Annexe.
Positioned in an enviable rural setting within the highly sought-after village of Damerham, this exceptional four-bedroom thatched family home has been beautifully renovated to an exacting standard. The property combines timeless character with stylish contemporary upgrades and further benefits from a self-contained two-bedroom annexe, a double garage, and a substantial purpose-built garden office.
The current owners have meticulously enhanced the property throughout, carefully preserving its heritage while introducing high-quality modern comforts. The result is a truly charming country home that showcases an abundance of character, including exposed timber beams, elegant herringbone flooring across the ground floor, and a wealth of original features that create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The ground floor accommodation begins with a welcoming lounge, centred around an attractive fireplace and complemented by an adjoining dining area. From here, the home flows effortlessly into the heart of the property; a beautifully appointed farmhouse-style kitchen installed in 2023. Featuring a range of classic Shaker units, quartz worktops and a Quooker tap.
Beyond this lies an impressive dual-aspect family room which enjoys delightful views across the rear gardens and provides a wonderful sense of light and space. A practical utility room and convenient ground floor WC complete the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with an en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish and well-appointed family bathroom.
A particularly attractive feature of the property is the detached annexe, which has been thoughtfully designed in keeping with the character of the main house with its timber frame and complementary styling. The ground floor offers a spacious sitting room, a kitchen/dining room with patio doors opening onto the rear courtyard, and a bathroom. Upstairs are two well-sized bedrooms. The annexe provides versatile accommodation and currently operates as a successful holiday let known as The Lodge at Stocks, offering excellent income potential.
During their ownership, the current vendors have made numerous improvements to the property. These include new double glazing, installation of a septic tank compliant with current regulations, a fully refitted kitchen with quartz worktops and Quooker tap, a newly insulated roof to the lounge, the creation of a dedicated utility area, updated damp proofing, and luxury LVT flooring throughout the ground floor. Additional wall insulation has been installed in the non-cob sections of the house, while the thatched roof was completely renewed in 2018.
The annexe has also been upgraded, including the installation of a brand-new boiler in 2024 and the creation of a private courtyard with patio doors from the kitchen area. In addition, the owners have constructed a substantial fully insulated garden office within the grounds, providing an ideal space for remote working or a creative studio.
Gardens and Grounds:
The property is approached via wooden gates which open onto an attractive and generous shingle driveway, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles, including larger vehicles such as motorhomes or boats. The front garden is beautifully screened by mature shrubs and planting, offering both privacy and kerb appeal. A double garage provides further parking and storage space and benefits from a useful vehicle inspection pit.
The rear gardens are a true highlight of the property, extending to approximately half an acre and offering a wonderfully private and peaceful setting. Immediately adjoining the house is a spacious terrace, perfectly positioned for al fresco dining, summer entertaining, or simply enjoying a morning coffee while overlooking the gardens.
The terrace opens onto an expansive area of lawn which gently transitions into a charming, established country garden filled with mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked borders. Towards the far end of the garden the grounds extend down to the river, providing a tranquil and picturesque setting where one can relax and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty.
Mature hedging encloses the gardens, creating a secluded and peaceful environment. The impressive garden office, constructed in 2022, is fully insulated for year-round use and enjoys pleasant views across the grounds, making it an exceptional work-from-home space.
This delightful home is located in the picturesque village of Damerham, nestled within the stunning Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is renowned for its traditional architecture, unspoilt countryside and strong sense of community. Local amenities include a village infant school, parish church and the popular Compasses Inn public house.
The nearby town of Fordingbridge, approximately three miles to the south-east, offers a range of everyday amenities including local shops, cafes and a medical centre. For more extensive shopping, dining and cultural facilities, the historic cathedral city of Salisbury lies around 12 miles to the north. Salisbury provides a direct mainline rail service to London Waterloo, while Bournemouth and Southampton also offer rail connections and international airports.
The area is particularly well regarded for its excellent schooling. Salisbury is home to highly respected grammar schools for both boys and girls, while nearby independent and preparatory schools include Forres Sandle Manor and Moyles Court. Well-regarded state secondary schools can also be found at Burgate and Downton.
