Sedgehill Corner, Motcombe

An impressive property of significant size and great potential to adapt or extend, situated in a rural location with over 5 acres of garden, field and far-reaching views.

Property
A super country residence comprising over 4,000 sq ft of excellent accommodation of a unique design, mostly on the ground floor, but with the flexibility for the next owner to either utilitise the existing footprint, or to adapt it to their own requirements. The property is keenly furnished with a timber clad ceiling in the sitting room, exposed brickwork and parquet flooring covering much of the space including the impressive drawing room. The hall gives way to a study to one side and the kitchen to the other, while immediately on that wing is the dining room and further along a most useful ground floor bedroom with ensuite shower. To the west are the sitting room, drawing room and a conservatory with lovely views over the garden. The integral double garage is accessed via the utility room and the first floor is accessed via separate staircases which each lead to two excellent sized bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms.

Outside
A delight of this property is its beautifully stocked south facing garden, filled with season round interest on different levels. Immediately to the front of the house is a paved terrace with steps via rose beds down to a lawn dissected by paved paths and having a climber-covered arbour and mature trees. To the side are further planted beds, while there is access around each end of the property to the parking area. To the west, a gate leads to a good level, stock fenced field of approx. 4.85 acres with a separate access and water.

Situation
The hamlet of Sedgehill is set amidst the gently rolling landscape of the Blackmore Vale, close to where North Dorset meets South Wiltshire. Although the location of Blue Haze is a rural one, it is by no means isolated, with a handful of neighbouring properties and the village of Motcombe and its thriving community a short distance away. Also close at hand are the towns of Mere, Shaftesbury and Gillingham, each of which have shopping facilities, while the latter two are serviced by supermarkets, highly regarded secondary schools, professional services, medical facilities and leisure centres. Gillingham and Tisbury also provide mainline rail services to London (Waterloo) in under 2 hours and the West Country.
The local road network gives ready access to the other main towns in the area including Bath, Salisbury and Sherborne. The nearby A303 trunk road links with the M3, making London accessible for motorists, while the South Coast is also within reach. Many families are drawn to the area by the quality of life and the many excellent state and private schools.
Located in a beautiful area, this is an ideal base to explore the attractive surrounding countryside which offers a variety of pursuits such as walking, riding and cycling, as well as traditional field sports. Golf courses are to be found at Tollard Royal, Salisbury, Sherborne, Warminster and Wincanton and there are regular race meetings at Bath, Salisbury and Wincanton. The area is spoilt for excellent dining pubs, and there are many places of interest such as Old Wardour Castle, the Longleat Estate, Stourhead Gardens, Wilton House, Stonehenge and the Fovant Badges.
