'Rare' chance to buy £1.25m equestrian home in Dorset

The five bedroom property - on the market with Savills of Wimborne -comes with paddocks, a stable block and outbuilings.  

Harts House, which is predominantly built of Marnhull stone, has accommodation laid out over three floors which extends to just over 3,000 sq ft.

The property is set within approximately three acres of grounds, with both of its paddocks having a well-designed equestrian track system used for the donkeys that are kept at the stables.

The land also benefits from planning permission for mixed equestrian and agricultural use.

To the front of the stone property is a small enclosed garden laid to lawn and surrounded by a laurel hedge together with parking for two cars.

The property fronts onto Sackmore Lane, from which a driveway leads to a larger parking area at the rear and a timber clad garage block with generous workshop, and storage space above.

Lizzie Ball, property agent at Savills in Wimborne, who is handling the sale, said: “This is an incredibly handsome and impressive modern home that has quite clearly been loved by its current owners.

"Not only does it benefit from a beautiful village location, it also provides additional outbuildings and the potential to expand upon the existing equestrian facilities.”

Harts House is situated close to the centre of the popular village of Marnhull, which has an excellent range of local facilities including a number of churches, a doctor’s surgery with pharmacy and a variety of shops and two pubs.
