A unique family residence with a versatile layout, set on a generous plot in the sought-after village of Manston. This immaculately presented home combines comfortable family living with a superb standalone annex, a large car port, and a substantial timber outbuilding—perfect for entertaining, storage, or hobbies.

On arrival, the broad Cotswold gravel drive provides a welcoming approach and pairs with a substantial double carport and storage above, offering plentiful space for hobbies, projects, or additional storage.

Inside, the entrance hall greets you with a calm, light-filled ambiance that carries through the home. To one side, the sitting room offers a relaxed, inviting space warmed by a real working wood burner. Double doors afford easy access to the rear garden, creating a seamless flow for entertaining or simply enjoying the outdoors from the heart of the home. On the opposite wing, the kitchen diner forms a bright, social hub for family life, with ample room for daily meals, entertaining and windows that flood the space with natural light. A practical utility room sits adjacent, while a dedicated study and a convenient W.C complete the ground floor, supporting modern family living with quiet workspaces and everyday convenience.

Ascending to the first floor, four well-sized double bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family members, guests, or a further home office setup. The master suite creates a private sanctuary with its own en suite and dressing area, offering a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and served by a well-appointed family bathroom, ensuring comfort and practicality for everyone.

A standout feature of this property is the recently renovated three-bedroom annex, conceived with versatility in mind. It is ideal for holiday letting while remaining perfectly suited for guests, in-laws, or extended family living. Inside, the annex presents a generous kitchen/diner, a comfortable living room, three bedrooms, and a family bathroom, all complemented by its own private garden for outdoor enjoyment and privacy.

The grounds of the main house are thoughtfully laid to lawn at the rear, providing a tranquil setting for outdoor dining, play, and relaxing garden moments. A large timber outbuilding sits at the back of the plot, offering flexible space that could function as a bar and entertaining area, or additional storage, depending on your needs.

The property’s approach is completed by the substantial double workshop with storage above, connected to a wide gravel driveway that ensures easy access and ample off-street parking.

Location in Manston affords easy access to nearby market towns such as Sturminster Newton, Shaftesbury, and Gillingham, with a variety of supermarkets and schools within reach. Mainline train links direct to London Waterloo are accessible, providing a practical balance between rural living and convenient travel.

In short, this property delivers a rare combination: a well-kept family home with four bedrooms, a three-bedroom annex ready for income or guests, substantial outbuildings, and generous outdoor space, all set on a generous plot in a village that combines countryside charm with accessible transport and amenities.
