Hugglers Hole, Semley, Shaftesbury, Wiltshire, SP7 9HG

A secluded country home with far-reaching views where the landscape becomes part of everyday life.

PROPERTY Penridge offers exceptionally generous accommodation of more than 3,000 sq ft, providing large kitchen/diner, 3 reception rooms, utility and 5 generously proportioned bedrooms.

Penridge is South West facing. LIVING At the heart of the house is a newly installed kitchen and dining space with stunning far-reaching views over the countryside beyond.

Huge glass panelled doors open to a panoramic view towards Duncliffe Wood and the rolling Dorset landscape.

The kitchen opens completely onto a large infinity style terrace creating continuity between inside and out. Off the kitchen the newly installed utility room provides practical space for family life.

Beyond the kitchen, a series of generous and flexible reception rooms flow naturally from one to the next, with space for entertaining as well as quieter corners.

The beautifully proportioned sitting room is centred around a wood burner with French doors leading to the infinity terrace.

A separate dining room, adding additional reception space, provides flexibility for entertaining and family life. The flooring is oak and stone throughout the house adding a contemporary feel.

A newly modernised studio, benefiting from outside access, provides versatility to either work from home, as a creative studio or playroom.

A further boot room and storeroom are both accessed from the studio. OUTSIDE The south-west facing garden is one of the many defining features of Penridge.

From the infinity terrace, the garden gently falls away towards the surrounding countryside, allowing the vista of the Blackmore Vale to take centre stage.

The terrace is perfectly positioned for outdoor entertaining but its real appeal is how naturally it connects with the house and the wider garden.

It lends itself to lunches that drift into evening on the terrace, and to sitting around the fire pit as the last light fades across the fields.

The drive leads to generous parking and turning space, together with a double garage incorporating a workshop and storage above.

Additional outbuildings provide useful space for garden equipment, machinery and storage. Please note: A public footpath runs along the eastern boundary of the garden, screened by hedging.
