A beautifully rustic and historic country house nestled in the countryside is our property of the week.

Old Sandpits House near Broadwindsor boasts more than 10 acres of land, an impressive seven bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The property has hit the market for a striking price of £1.85 million.

However, a spotlight could be drawn on the impressive 40ft indoor, heated swimming pool and adjacent fitness suite.

The outside space is equally as remarkable as the country house has a stunning garden complete with spring-fed lakes which can even be fished and are a haven for wildlife.

The house itself dates back to the fifteenth century and English Heritage states it was originally an open hall, then altered and extended over the centuries.

Within the last 30 years or so, the house has been subject to extensive refurbishment works undertaken with great sensitivity and a significant recent improvement was the rethatching of the main property.

The interior is bursting at the seams with character including the stone floors, timber beams, and open fireplaces.

Set out across two floors, there is plenty to view at this beautiful home, including a study.

The spacious grade II listed property has stunning views of the countryside, as well as a range of outbuildings like a four-car garage with a playroom.
