BEECHLANDS
In a prime location, close to the edge of town, Beechlands must be one of the best mature family homes in Blandford. Originally built in the 1930‘s, remodelled in the 80‘s and home to the current owner for nearly 20 years, it is an immaculately maintained and presented detached property comprising a very substantial main house approaching 3,000 sq./ft. and a spacious detached cottage style offering 1,000 sq. ft. of accommodation.
The main house has generous and well organised accommodation which includes a particularly impressive drawing room, a dining room with sliding patio doors to the garden, a kitchen/breakfast room and separate utility room. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms with plenty of storage and three bath/shower rooms, and a fifth bedroom with ensuite on the 2nd floor is currently used as a family room and office. In addition to the main house there is a comfortable detached one bedroom cottage. All of this fabulous space makes Beechlands and Beechlands Cottage ideal for multigenerational living, for extended family meters all of that surrounded by a lovely garden in one of the most sought after areas of Blandford Forum.
THE COTTAGE
Set suitably apart from the main house, Beechlands Cottage is an impressively spacious single storey cottage offering another 1,000 sq./ft. of accommodation. It is currently arranged with another fine character reception room enhanced by period reclaimed beams, a smart modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a conservatory and a large double bedroom and bathroom. The cottage has its own area of enclosed garden and could very easily be re-configured with two bedrooms if required.
Beechlands is set nicely back from Milldown Road behind a large enclosed front garden with a sunken lawn surrounded by mature borders, a number of fine specimen trees and a small woodland glade off to one side. On the other side, a five bar gate opens on to a paved drive leading up to the garage and carport, and providing plenty of parking. Behind the house there is another area of lawn with a paved terrace to one side, and a discreet area for storage with 2 garden sheds. A picket fence separates off another well kept private garden for the cottage.
SITUATION
Situated off Milldown Road one of the most prestigious addresses in Blandford Forum, Beechlands is conveniently close to all amenities in this historic Georgian town the lovely surrounding countryside that this part of Dorset is renowned for. Just meters away is the Milldown Nature Reserve ideal for dog walking etc and offering stunning rural views. Adjacent is the disused railway line, now converted into ‘The Trailway‘ which extends 10 miles to the fellow market town of Sturminster Newton. It has to be said a leisurely cycle with pub/coffee stops in some of the picturesque surrounding villages is a must!
Although Blandford is located in the heart of rural Dorset, communication links are excellent. It is only a short drive south to the Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch conurbation which makes the town hugely convenient for people who work in that area. Travelling further afield is straight forward, the nearby A31 provides a quick link to the M27 for Southampton and Portsmouth, and the M3 up to London. Bournemouth and Southampton airports and the ferry ports of Poole and Portsmouth are all easily accessible, and Poole station has a fast regular train service to London Waterloo as does Salisbury and Gillingham.
The area around Blandford is well served with good local schools at all levels, and as well as two primary schools in the area include Bryanston (on the doorstep). Milton Abbey, Canford and Clayesmore, along with prep schools at Castle Court, Dumpton, Knighton House and Sandroyd. There are many good opportunities for sport and recreation in the area with excellent cycling, riding and walking country all round, numerous good golf courses and renowned shooting and fishing. There are plenty of other sports clubs in and around the town, and great opportunities for water sports with Poole harbour and the south coast being under an hours drive away.
