Summary - Copstones, Hooke DT8 3PD
6 bed 3 bath Detached
Large Purbeck stone family house with annexe, big garden and multi‑car driveway in peaceful village.
Purbeck stone detached house over 2,800 sq ft
Copstones is a substantial Purbeck stone family house arranged over multiple floors, offering more than 2,800 sq ft of adaptable living space plus a self-contained one‑bed annexe. The main house centres on a large sitting room with a log burner, a sociable kitchen/dining flow, two utility rooms and generous bedrooms with built-in storage. The annexe has its own entrance, kitchen/sitting room with Velux windows, bedroom and ensuite — suitable for multi-generational living, long‑term guests or rental income.
Externally the plot is a strong asset: a wide driveway for several vehicles, front lawn, greenhouse, raised vegetable beds and a private annexe garden. The property sits in a peaceful village setting with countryside walks nearby and Beaminster’s shops and services only about four miles away; West Bay’s coast is within a 20‑minute drive.
Notable practical points: the house was constructed in the 1950s–60s, has cavity walls assumed without added insulation, and is heated by an oil boiler (not on a communal supply). Flood risk for the location is high, and council tax is described as quite expensive — both important for budgeting. Some cosmetic updating and energy improvements would add value and comfort.
This home will suit buyers seeking room for a growing or multi‑generation family, owners wanting rental or home‑business potential from the annexe, or purchasers willing to invest in insulation and energy upgrades for long‑term savings. The scale, garden and stone character give immediate appeal; plan for flood resilience measures and higher running costs.
