Property details

Inside

Welcome to Corydon, a property only 4 miles from the county town of Dorchester, set in a private, secluded area of just over 7 acres of woodland and garden, with an abundance of wildlife and birds. Here you will find a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life – yet Poundbury is only a 5 minute drive away!

This chalet style property provides versatile accommodation including 3 double bedrooms, 2 reception rooms, 3 bathrooms and a self-contained annexe with separate entrance.

The property itself is entered through an ENCLOSED PORCH with built-in coats cupboard and generous BOOT ROOM, leading into the ENTRANCE HALL which has plentiful room to greet guests. Just off the Entrance Hall is a large GROUND FLOOR CLOAKROOM, and a FAMILY BATHROOM with modern bath, W.C., and vanity unit with inset wash hand basin. Opposite, is the KITCHEN with a range of fitted wall and base units providing ample storage; appliances include a 6-burner gas hob with extractor hood over, an integrated dishwasher and space for a tall fridge/freezer.

A further door gives immediate access to the SITTING ROOM. This is an L-shaped room with leafy views across the garden and woodland, and a part-vaulted ceiling adding a sense of airiness and space. A seating area enjoys a cosy wood burner, positioned on a raised stone plinth with natural stone backdrop. There is an additional space for a further dining area, which lies to the opposite end. Timber flooring adds a practical note.

The DINING HALL flows from the Entrance Hall offering a multi-purpose space for formal dining, crafting or office, and provides access to the 3 bedrooms. (Stairs lead up from this area to a very generous LOFT ROOM.) Fine views are framed by the French doors which lead into a CONSERVATORY and a generous BALCONY.

The BEDROOMS are all double rooms with delightful views across the property and beyond. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is a generous light space with dual aspect windows, and an ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM.

Further accommodation can be found in the spacious ANNEXE, which sits underneath the balcony and has separate access from outside, providing a BED/SITTING ROOM which has its own SHOWER ROOM, with double shower cubicle, wash-hand basin and W.C., as well as a KITCHEN area.

Outside

This is a nature-lover’s paradise. Approx 7.13 ACRES of open garden area and sheltered woodland surround the property, which is both secluded and private, with views of the countryside and Hardy’s Monument. The property affords a business potential: there are already two shepherd huts on site (which can be available by separate negotiation); these have been successfully offered on a holiday rental basis. There are 2 outbuildings, which are currently used as a TEA ROOM for the shepherd’s huts, and a LOG CABIN which has two shower rooms and electric supply – which could be repurposed.

Location

Just over a mile is Winterbourne Abbas which lies along South Winterbourne River a tributary of the River Frome. The village has a number of amenities with a First school, public house, petrol station / small convenience store, St Mary’s Church and is on a bus route. Well positioned for access to Dorchester under 4 miles away with its mainline railway stations, county hospital, museum, sports centre, restaurants, boutique shopping as well as high street chains and highly regarded schools. Nearby is the Jurassic Coast offering glorious walks within the Dorset National Landscape.
