This detached stone residence, originally constructed in 1875, offers considerable potential for improvement and adaptation. Known as Larkrise, the property rests on an expansive 1.1-acre plot, complemented by a range of outbuildings and breathtaking views over surrounding fields and hills. Having been held by just two owners in the past six decades, this home features a blend of classic charm and modern upgrades from the current owner’s 20-year tenure.
The interior is thoughtfully arranged with a bespoke oak kitchen complete with a Belfast sink and leads into a spacious dining area and inviting sitting room equipped with a wood-burning stove. An impressive oak garden room extension adds to the living space, providing panoramic views. The upper floor houses two double bedrooms, each with private ensuite facilities.
Outdoors, there is significant investment potential within the substantial outbuildings that include a lengthy tractor shed and workshop, currently serving as versatile space but ripe for conversion or enhancement to meet various needs. Additionally, there are options for further development or extensions pending necessary permissions.
The property's south-facing garden features established landscaping, terracing, and includes a shepherd's hut suitable for diverse uses. With installed solar panels yielding annual income and potential for additional energy efficiencies such as more panels or battery storage systems, this property presents an exceptional opportunity for sustainable living while enjoying rural tranquillity.
Located in Stour Row near Shaftesbury, it provides access to local amenities while being well-connected to major transport routes.
