Dating back to the early 1700s, this exceptional period home is recognised as one of the oldest surviving properties in Verwood, offering a rare blend of historic character, generous accommodation and modern versatility.
Set within a quiet and desirable location, the main house provides substantial and flexible living space arranged over two floors, currently configured to offer five to six bedrooms, making it ideal for larger families, multi-generational living or those seeking space to work from home.
At the heart of the home is a welcoming lounge featuring a traditional fire box and wood-burning stove, creating a warm and atmospheric focal point. Throughout the property, original features reflect the building's heritage while being carefully balanced with practical updates for modern living.
The kitchen and adjoining spaces are complemented by a bespoke, handmade fitted utility area, incorporating thoughtfully designed cupboards and storage solutions that maximise functionality without compromising character.
Externally, the property benefits from a detached double garage, alongside an adjacent, fully usable office or gym room, offering excellent flexibility for home working, fitness, or hobby use.
Of particular note is the adjoined self-contained annexe, currently operated as a successful Airbnb Superhost accommodation, generating an approximate �4,000 per annum. The annexe provides an attractive income stream while also offering potential for guest accommodation, independent living for relatives, or integration back into the main house if desired.
Combining over three centuries of history with adaptable living arrangements, income potential and modern additions, this distinctive home represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique and characterful property within Verwood.
