Three good-sized bedrooms with dual-aspect master
Quietly tucked within Winterborne Stickland, The Old School House is a characterful three-bedroom home with generous rooms and a large, well-established garden. The property’s brick and flint construction, exposed internal stonework and wood-burner in the garden room give a strong period character and countryside feel. The conservatory and garden room both face the rear garden and enjoy far-reaching rural views.
The layout suits a family or couple seeking space and a village setting: dual-aspect sitting room, breakfast kitchen, conservatory, and two ground-floor reception areas provide flexible living. The large rear garden includes a vegetable patch, greenhouse, outbuildings and garage — appealing to gardeners and those wanting outdoor space. The house is offered chain free.
Buyers should note several practical issues: the property uses electric storage heaters and mains electric, the stone walls are likely uninsulated, and the Energy Performance Certificate is G. Drainage is by shared private systems (private water supply and septic tank). There is a medium flood risk and council tax is above average — all factors to consider for running costs and insurance.
Overall this is a substantial, character-rich home in a peaceful village location with strong garden and countryside appeal. It will suit buyers who value historic charm and outdoor space and are prepared to update heating, insulation and energy performance over time.
