Description

This 400-year-old Jacobean mansion house, known as The Old Rectory, is a stunning property that has been lovingly restored by the current owners. With 4,135 square feet of living space, it offers a unique blend of period charm and modern amenities. The property features a wealth of original 17th-century and Victorian features, including a galleried oak staircase, flagstone floor, and hand-poured glass windows. The house is situated on a half-acre plot with private grounds, a separate one-bedroom annexe, and a walled kitchen garden. The property has a rich history, having been built by Henry Carew in the 17th century and later used as a hiding place for priests during the English Civil War. It has also been home to Lord Wimborne and the church, and has been sympathetically updated and restored to maintain its original character. The property offers huge potential for a family home, home and income, live work space, or as a film set, and is located in a peaceful area with easy access to Poole Quay, the waters of Poole Harbour, and nearby beaches.
