Inside

An extraordinary and stunning Grade II listed home superbly designed within the old parish Church of St Mary. Originally built in the late 1820s, it was converted into residential dwellings at the turn of the last century - around 1990s. Its rural location offers country and river views across the glorious Dorset countryside.

Step into the wide, solid stone porch where these is plenty of room to remove and store coats and boots. You are then welcomed into this unique living space. The DINING ROOM is a wonderfully large, light area with space enough for a very generous dining table, an elegant room for dining with friends and family. A semi, open-plan room that opens into the KITCHEN, which is fully fitted with attractive base and wall units, and usual kitchen appliances. Like the dining area, the tall masonry window allows light to flood in. Also from the dining area are pretty timber and glazed doors that open to a few steps, taking you up to the OFFICE/STUDY. A glorious, timber clad room with another wonderfully attractive window bringing light in.

From the dining room take just three steps up into the INNER HALLWAY to a UTILITY ROOM and ground floor SHOWER ROOM and TWO stunning DOUBLE BEDROOMS. Both very generous rooms with attractive original features and overlooking the side of the property. The staircase from the dining room rises to the FIRST FLOOR. The SITTING ROOM is gloriously light and spacious, a magical room for relaxing with friends and family. This level is wonderfully quirky with substantial timber step ladder to the MEZZANINE LEVEL, a fun space for a library or as a children's play area; plenty of storage here too for books or toys. Steps lead down to the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM. This really is a remarkably lovely space with 3 large masonry windows, a cosy corner for relaxing and space in front of the wall-to-wall built-in wardrobes as a DRESSING AREA. The ENSUITE BATHROOM is a luxurious addition to this sumptuous room.

The ANTE-ROOM gives access to a pretty, LARGE SINGLE BEDROOM with an original, attractive stained glass window. The ante-room has a spiral staircase that takes you up to the TURRET ROOM which offers spectacular views across the fields and River Frome.
