Kingcombe Farmhouse is believed to date from the mid-18th century with 20th century additions. This quintessential Dorset property is constructed of chalk stone, flint and part brick elevations under a thatched roof with the rear and one end being under a slate. The property was updated to a good standard circa five years ago accentuating the lovely period features, which include flagstone floors, some wonderful fireplaces and many exposed timbers. The property has some attractive rooms including a kitchen with stripped wood floor and AGA range, a dining room with flag stone floor and glazed screen overlooking the garden, a sitting room and snug, both with inglenook fireplaces and timber floors.

The property is approached off the lane through a timber 5 bar gate leading onto a gravelled parking and turning area. The front garden is narrow with wrought iron railings with a gate leading to the original front door via a stone path. The main gardens lie at the rear and on one side. There is a level lawn immediately to the rear of the house also providing access to a machinery store. A stone paved path with steps leads around the rear of the house to an area of paved terrace. The main lawn has borders and shrubs and is surrounded by hedging. There are a number of mixed trees around the garden of various varieties. Within the main garden there is a stone, flint and thatched former privy now used as a garden store.

Further land lies south west of the house and garden, sloping gently down to the river and providing a number of cider apple trees. The River Hooke, is a chalk stream tributary to the River Frome which it meets at Maiden Newton. There is a footbridge over the river to a further area of paddock with direct gate access onto Kingcombe Lane. This area of river provides single and double bank fishing for wild brown trout.
