Description
This 17th-century Jacobean manor house, known as The Old Rectory, is a rare and historic property that has been lovingly restored and now offers a unique combination of family home and holiday let. With a fascinating history dating back to 1604, it has been owned by prominent families, including the Catholic Carew family, and has even housed the Roundheads and Oliver Cromwell during the Civil War. The property features stunning period details, including carved panels, inglenook fireplaces, and original flagstone floors, as well as modern updates, such as a bespoke English Oak kitchen and hand-made glass windows. The grounds are a haven for wildlife and offer a tranquil retreat, with a walled kitchen garden, raised vegetable beds, and a large paved terrace for entertaining. The property also includes a separate one-bedroom annexe and has the potential to generate significant income as a holiday let. Located in a lesser-known area of Poole Harbour, it is just a short distance from Poole Quay, Hamworthy Beach, and Park, as well as several marinas and yacht clubs.
