"A fantastic modern detached property in an idyllic yet very convenient location, with just under 10 acres, superb equestrian facilities with outbuildings and stunning countryside views.

THE PROPERTY
Tucked away in an idyllic yet very convenient location a short drive from the excellent facilities of Maiden Newton, Lancombe Farm is a fantastic detached property with an attractive rendered facade under a pitched slate roof, that was cleverly extended in 2000 having once been single storey. The property has some of the most stunning views that this part of West Dorset has to offer, including sea glimpses.
On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm, space, and light with well presented and very flexible accommodation. There is a large hall which leads into all the ground floor rooms, which include three bedrooms, one currently being used as a study, a snug room, and a conservatory.
The family kitchen is quite simply as good as it gets with beautiful tiled flooring and incorporating a number of wall and base units, including a five ring hob and twin oven. There is also a large pantry and plenty of room for a good sized breakfast dining table.
The main sitting room is a truly superb room with stunning views and direct access to a paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and enjoying a drink whilst even sitting in the hot tub! There is also paved eating terrace, ideal for al fresco dining.
The principal bedrooms are situated on the first floor with three fantastic bedrooms including a very large master bedroom suite with an en suite bathroom and dressing room. There is also a family bathroom on this floor. Unsurprisingly the views from this floor are incredible, and one can even keep an eye on their ponies!
A very important feature of this property is the perfect holding of land, views, and incredible outbuildings. The property is approached through wooden gates over a sweeping gravelled drive and leads to the rear of the property with a large parking area and detached double garage with electric as well as power. The land boasts equestrian facilities, with mainly level pastureland with post and rail fencing. The stabling is superb, housed in a sizeable outbuilding constructed of block under corrugated steel and perspex roof comprising five very good sized stables. There is a tack room, feed room with sink with hot water and horse shower facilities, and an undercover storage area. There is an automatic water supply to the stables and fields, and also a strip of woodland with a derelict flint building with water supply
In all approximately 9.96 acres.
All in all, this is a truly fantastic property with a good holding of land in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
