4Detached House
4Owner comments, "We've really enjoyed the garden; the privacy and quietness are unusual so close to everything in the village. We have had some super drinks parties, with people spilling out into the garden from the farmhouse kitchen." Freehold
Welcome to Stanbarrow Farmhouse, which stands proudly in the heart of the lovely village of Bere Regis. The original part of the farmhouse is understood to be approximately 200 years old, and the house has many of its lovely original features. Stepping into the light HALLWAY you can feel the history as the house welcomes you in.
The statement DRAWING ROOM is charming and light floods through from the front and rear. Just down 2 steps and you find yourself in a pretty STUDY AREA which overlooks the glorious back garden. The DINING ROOM sits on the other side of the hallway and is a superb and substantial room for formal dining - what a fabulous room for family meals. Then into the KITCHEN with its wonderful farmhouse feel, it is large and welcoming, and you can just imagine gathering here with family and friends and then wandering through to the sunny GARDEN ROOM. On this level there is a very useful and good sized CLOAKROOM and under a STORM PORCH from a rear access, you will find a very convenient LAUNDRY ROOM.
In the HALLWAY, stairs rise to the FIRST FLOOR LANDING and the very generous bedroom accommodation. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is substantial, light and has a good-sized EN-SUITE SHOWER ROOM. There is a large window to the front and a built-in wardrobe. BEDROOM 2 is an equally substantial double room with windows to the front and side and a built-in wardrobe. BEDROOM 3 is another large double bedroom with window overlooking the side garden. At the end of the landing is BEDROOM 4 another double room which overlooks the garden. From the landing there are two steps down to the generous FAMILY BATHROOM, which has a bathtub and a separate shower cubicle.
The south facing TERRACE, is perfect for sitting out and soaking up the sun. You are surrounded by traditional cottage garden flowers and shrubs - a garden well-tended and a delight to be in.
Roses climb the old garden walls and a doorway tantalises you to enter into your very own secret WALLED GARDEN.
Rose beds surround a lawn and there is a perfect seating spot in the sunny corner.
On a practical note, there is a GARAGE and a PARKING SPACE.
This impressive home sits within the village of Bere Regis, which is located in the heart of Hardy country. The property itself is walking distance to the newly revamped village shop and post office, the church and both public houses. The village has some spectacular walks along the river and through Mays Wood. There is a primary school in the village and the catchment is for the highly commended Lytchett School. The main line stations from nearby Wareham, Wool and Dorchester are to Waterloo and Bristol respectively. A short drive will get you to the sandy beaches at Studland, Swanage and Weymouth, and the spectacular Jurassic coastal views that Durdle Door and Luworth Cove have to offer.
