Loscombe Down originally built in 1967 although it has been significantly upgraded in recent years. This individual architect designed house sits in a superb location nestling in an unspoilt valley with excellent views. Comprised of three floors; the ground floor construction is of cavity wall with Purbeck stone cladding. The upper floor is clad with cedar and the roof is slate. The property is laid out over three floors and has been imaginatively designed to take full advantage of the far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. The accommodation is to a high specification, offering light and a spacious feel, whilst also providing privacy and seclusion. The house is entered via an impressive timber framed front porch into a reception hall with natural stone floor and cloakroom. The study/bedroom four with en suite shower room, has doors leading out to sunny paved, lower terrace and garden. Also situated on the ground floor is a large utility room and storage room. Up the stairs to the middle floor and the open plan kitchen/dining room with sitting room provides wonderful, light spacious living accommodation with far reaching views. The large kitchen and dining area has sleek, bespoke fitted wooden units with dark work tops and natural stone floor. Bi-fold doors open onto a large terrace with a colourful border and the hill beyond providing the backdrop. The sitting room off the kitchen has a triple aspect with bay window and a multi-fuel burner with Portland stone fire surround and the flooring is engineered oak. Upstairs, to the top floor; the principal bedroom suite with dressing room, en suite shower room and balcony takes in the wonderful views over the garden and valley. There are two further double bedrooms both with en suite shower/bathrooms. All bath/shower rooms are well appointed.

Outside Loscombe Down is approached from a track via a sweeping gravel drive (through electronically operated 5 bar gate) to the front where there is ample parking for several cars. The triple bay garage has a superb large studio above with kitchen/bedroom and living accommodation and separate shower room, providing a useful self-contained unit, ideal for family, guests or income generation. There is splendid timber-clad outside garden room, doubling as a Gym or home office with timber deck and seating area. Along the track is a substantial oak clad barn and log store with adjacent fenced poultry run. Nearby is a kitchen garden and fruit cages. The main formal gardens which amount to over an acre surround the property and are mainly laid to lawn with some fine mature trees and established flower borders. The remainder of the land is laid to pasture and is situated in a designated National Landscape. From the house along the bridleway to the front you can ride for many miles and walk to Hardy's monument. There is also excellent walking on the public footpaths. The entire area of the land extends to approximately 12.4 acres.
