5 bedroom house for sale

An elegant period residence, idyllically positioned in a secluded setting with grounds of just over an acre.

Spring Cottage is situated on the edge of Child Okeford, a village nestling at the foot of both Hambledon and Hod Hills and set amidst the beautiful and unspoilt countryside of the Blackmore Vale.

The house is architecturally defined by the elevations of the original property, that was latterly transformed by considerate additions, which seamlessly blend old and new, creating the wonderfully versatile, expansive home you find today.

The primary entrance is positioned centrally to the front where a bright entrance hall forms the central axis to all the living areas, which unfold across the ground floor. The composition of the accommodation is ideally suited to couples or families alike. The living spaces have a seamless flow, optimising an excellent quality of natural light, which filters in throughout the course of the day. A beautifully appointed farmhouse style kitchen is positioned at one end of the primary living area. There is ample cabinetry under granite and contrasting solid woodwork surfaces, an AGA, larder and a central island. There is space for a breakfast table and a comfortable cosy seating area. Beyond, there is a substantial utility/boot room that has a recently renewed roof. Across the entrance hall is the formal dining room and a sizeable study or snug. Steps lead down to the simply stunning drawing room that has French doors opening out to the garden terrace and bespoke fitted cabinetry perfectly framing a central fireplace.

On the first floor, the generously proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a gallery landing adding a sense of volume and space. The principal guest bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and built-in storage. The remaining bedrooms consist of three large doubles and a small single or secondary study, all serviced by a stylish family bathroom.
