Fifehead Neville is a tranquil hamlet, offering the perfect blend of peaceful rural living, while still being close to a variety of amenities and attractions. The town of Sturminster Newton (2 miles) boasts a selection of pubs and independent shops, providing everything from everyday essentials to unique artisanal goods. The surrounding landscape is home to diverse wildlife and the banks of the River Stour are within only 2 miles, where you can arrange a permit to fish or simply sit back and listen to the water. Why not stretch your legs with a walk along the Trailway to Blandford Forum? Or head south to the breathtaking Jurassic Coast, home to some of Dorset’s most iconic landmarks, including Durdle Door and Ringstead Bay. For those seeking adventure, a hike up Bulbarrow Hill rewards visitors with panoramic views of the rolling countryside.
A shared gravel driveway and stepping stones leads to the stable yard, where you’ll find the entrance into the property. Once inside you are met with a welcoming hallway leading to the lounge immediately on your left. This inviting room has a wood burner for those cosy nights in and a Smart TV so you can catch up on your favourite shows. Next is the ground floor shower room with WC, before you reach the door to the kitchen. The u-shaped space is equipped with all you need to prepare light meals and there is space to dine just opposite. Heading upstairs will take you into the king-size bedroom, complete with en-suite bathroom, including a handheld shower over the bath and WC. Due to the setting in the eaves, there are some areas of restricted head height, which only add to the character and charm of the space.
Stepping outside from the hallway, you will find a courtyard with bench overlooking the adjacent stables. With resident guinea fowl, petting hens, and a peacock for company, you are sure to unwind in this truly idyllic spot. The cottage is set beside the owners home and the approach to the property is shared, however your privacy is assured. Due to the expansive nature of the grounds and adjacent stabling, a gardener and groom is in regular attendance. There is off road parking for two cars.
