Country estate of the month CHISEL FARM HOUSE, HANFORD, DORSET
This is a Grade Ii-listed, Georgian-fronted, country house with a cottage, just under 10 miles from Shaftesbury, with views over its own fields and the Stour Valley. Chisel Farm House dates from the late 18th century and was fully restored by the current owners in 2008, with a substantial extension added; there are six bedrooms. The mature formal gardens include a kitchen garden and greenhouse, swimming pool and tennis court. There are equestrian facilities with three stables, a tack room, feed store and barn, plus pony paddocks and a field shelter. The Dairy House, in need of updating, has four bedrooms and a partly walled garden. The property comes with nearly 14 acres of land. It is available as a whole or in four lots.
