We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Set within approximately one acre of beautiful private grounds, Okeden House is an impressive five-bedroom detached country home offering an exceptional combination of period charm, generous living space and versatile outbuildings, all nestled within a peaceful gated estate in the heart of the Dorset countryside.
Approached via a private drive passing a picturesque pond, open fields and neighbouring country homes, the property enjoys an idyllic setting with wonderful countryside walks right from the doorstep.
Built of attractive brick and flint beneath a slate roof, the home retains a wealth of character features while providing comfortable accommodation for modern family living.
The welcoming entrance hall features a charming fireplace and leads to a selection of spacious reception rooms, including a sitting room, additional reception room and a bright sun room/conservatory overlooking the gardens.
The kitchen, complete with a traditional Rayburn, flows into the dining room, creating an ideal space for everyday life and entertaining alike.
Upstairs are five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with a recently fitted luxury en-suite bathroom.
A second bedroom also benefits from its own stylish en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed contemporary shower room.
Outside, the extensive grounds offer privacy and space to enjoy the surrounding countryside.
Two substantial detached barns provide excellent storage, workshop and garaging facilities, with loft storage and a games room adding further flexibility.
A separate studio and traditional granary create additional opportunities for home working, hobbies or guest accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
Offering a peaceful rural lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of Blandford Forum and local amenities, Okeden House is a truly special home.
