DESCRIPTION Old Village Hall must be one of the most fascinating and unique examples in the area of how a community building can be sympathetically converted into a stunning and versatile family home. As the name suggests, the property was originally the village hall for Seaborough and thus stands in an important and somewhat elevated position at the heart of the hamlet with a wonderful countryside outlook and far-reaching views. The conversion project was carried out under the current ownership, which has spanned nearly 20 years, and it is clear to see that this is a home designed and crafted to blend traditional family values with a modern way of life, including an element of environmental consciousness with locally sourced and reclaimed materials used where possible.

The spacious and versatile accommodation centres around the former main hall, now an expansive, open plan family room with an impressive focal fireplace and plenty of space for dedicated areas for relaxing, dining and studying. Four double bedrooms can all be accessed from here, including one which is accessed via a concealed staircase and the principal bedroom suite comprising a generous double bedroom, en-suite bathroom and adjoining dressing room/snug. The kitchen and family shower room both offer scope for an incoming purchaser to make their mark, offering an opportunity for personalisation to suit a broad variety of needs. There is also planning permission in place for a self-contained studio annexe to be constructed, offering superb potential to create ancillary accommodation for regular guests, dependent relatives or grown-up children, to name but a few possible occupants.

OUTSIDE Another focus during the conversion was facilitating a highly desirable outdoor lifestyle. Glass doors from the open plan family room, the principal bedroom and the dressing room/snug lead directly to the charming gardens which surround the property as have been designed as a series of rooms. Outdoor living is an undoubted joy here with an exciting array of flora planted throughout the garden and multiple places to relax, dine or entertain al fresco, whilst those with green fingers will appreciate the produce and herb gardens. Parking is well provided for on the gravelled driveway where there are also two storage sheds.

SITUATION Seaborough is a peaceful hamlet set in beautiful countryside set on the Dorset/South Somerset border and within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Despite its rural surroundings, Seaborough is far from isolated with the villages of Mosterton and Broadwindsor both within about 2/3 miles with local facilities including a shop, primary school, church and village hall in each. The Georgian market town of Crewkerne is also nearby where wider amenities are available including a Waitrose supermarket and a main line rail service to London. Beaminster, Bridport, Lyme Regis and Yeovil are all also within easy reach, with the beautiful Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site about 10 miles away.
