Moorcourt Farm is a substantial five-bedroom farmhouse with a range of modern and traditional farm buildings, dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The property has been carefully renovated and extended to create a spacious home of over 4,900 square feet, with a balance of living rooms, five bedrooms, and an excellent home office. The property features a central hall, kitchen, breakfast room, family snug, and utility room on the ground floor, with a sun room, dining room, and sitting room on the first floor. The second floor provides a large home office with a shower room, which could be used as additional bedroom accommodation or a self-contained flat. The property is surrounded by two walled gardens, one with a heated swimming pool, and a further stone outbuilding. The farm buildings include a range of traditional and modern structures, including a carport, garden and machinery storage, stables, and ancillary stores, with scope for further development and use. The property sits on 32.9 acres of land, with a natural pond, island, and treehouse, and is located in a quiet lane with far-reaching views over the Dorset countryside.
