Stickland Farm is an attractive Grade II listed 18th-century thatched farmhouse with almost 5,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, including a two-bedroom self-contained annexe and a converted studio barn. The main house blends period character—exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and brick/flint elevations—with recent sympathetic refurbishment; the thatch was re-ridged in 2017 and the owners have updated services and interiors. The south-facing garden, kitchen garden and orchard provide generous outdoor space for family life or holiday guests.
The property currently operates with a successful holiday annexe (The Old Dairy) and a flexible gallery/studio that could generate further income or become additional living space. Practical benefits include private drive, ample off-street parking, and a large plot set close to the village centre with good access to Blandford and the A31. Broadband and mobile are adequate for rural living and the area offers strong local schools and extensive countryside recreation.
Important considerations: the house is listed, so works will be controlled and may require specialist consent and cost. Heating runs on LPG and drainage is by private septic tank. Flood risk is rated medium in this area. Council Tax is Band G, reflecting the property’s size and running costs. Overall, the house suits a family seeking character and space, or a buyer wanting an income-producing rural home willing to manage listed-building responsibilities.
