The Old Laundry was likely to have been part of Bloxworth House, as a series of outbuildings that would have been instrumental in the running of the main estate house back in the 1800's. The part cobb, part render and brick construction date the property to that time, although the modern renovations are now apparent too.
Cute views from the windows looking out to the gardens, vaulted ceilings, slate tile flooring and statement reception rooms showcase the personality of the house. It is loud and clear, living here is fun.
Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed into the cosy KITCHEN/DINING ROOM. There is an electric stove fire, in the style of a woodburner, which is set in a brick fireplace. Inviting you to pull up a chair and to curl up in front of it. From the country style kitchen, you have views and a door leading out to the central courtyard.
The formal DINING ROOM, is both majestic and impressive. With vaulted ceilings, painted beams and high French doors leading out to the garden. The views are pretty and enticing.
Through to the SITTING ROOM, which has a log burner that creates atmosphere and making a social space to sit comfortably. With doors leading to both the courtyard and garden, the room has the special ability to transform from a cosy retreat to a socialising hub.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM SUITE is stunning, with light coming in from Velux™ windows and character coming from the unusual style. The room is generous in size and has plenty of storage built in. The statement spiral staircase takes you up to the mezzanine floor which is home to the ENSUITE PRIVATE SHOWER ROOM. With a recently installed modern glass shower, handwash basin and W.C. this generous space is a delight to pamper yourself in!
There are a further TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS each with their own EN-SUITE BATHROOMS. Here you will find more character and style. Certainly, they have been loved by family and guests alike. Take the stairs to the first floor, and you will find a separate DOUBLE BEDROOM SUITE. With a generous double bedroom area and sitting area available this makes a comfortable guest suite. There is also a PRIVATE BATHROOM.
The Old Laundry has not only provided fun and memories for the current owners, but also an income and a way of life. There is potential for this house to accommodate a multi-generational family, with separate self-contained living spaces. In the same way, these spaces could provide a passive income, a tried and tested method that would be simple to replicate.
Outside

Out of sight, there are storage sheds, keeping all the gardening paraphernalia tidy.
To the rear of the garden, there is a HARD STANDING, that has planning permission to erect a detached domestic shed. There is separate road access, with private parking for a campervan or caravan, behind the sturdy wooden gates.
