The property

The Laurels is an impressive detached bungalow resting in the Wimborne Minster area of Dorset.

Offering spacious and stylish accommodation for families and friends, boasting a toasty woodburning stove and easy access to the outstanding scenery of the New Forest National Park.

Arriving at the property, pull through the gates and onto the generous shingle driveway, where parking for three cars awaits.

The attractive frontage and mature surroundings create a wonderful first impression before you step through the entrance porch and into the welcoming hallway.

At the heart of the home is the superb open-plan living space, designed for spending time together.

Begin your morning preparing breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen, where the ceramic induction hob, electric oven and integrated appliances make mealtimes a pleasure.

Gather around the dining area to plan the day's adventures before moving into the sitting area, where the warmth of the underfloor heating enhances relaxed afternoons with a coffee or board game.

Separate from the main living space, the sitting room offers another inviting place to unwind.

Light the woodburning stove on cooler evenings and settle in with a favourite film, while stories of the day's discoveries are shared among loved ones.

A utility room provides practical convenience during your stay, while the cloakroom completes the living accommodation.

When evening arrives, choose from two welcoming double bedrooms.

Both are situated within the main home and are served by a stylish family bathroom, where a leisurely soak in the bath or a refreshing walk-in shower awaits after a day of exploring.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of sunny days.

Enjoy breakfast on the patio, watch children play on the lawn, or gather on the decking with a refreshing drink as the evening settles in.

A separate courtyard garden offers another pleasant spot to sit back and enjoy the fresh Dorset air.

For added convenience, a shop is just a short stroll away, while a traditional pub can be reached with an easy walk from the property.

The nearby New Forest National Park makes a fantastic day out, where ancient woodland trails wind beneath towering trees, free-roaming ponies graze in open heathland, and scenic cycling routes reveal some of southern England's most captivating landscapes.

Spend time exploring Wimborne Minster, home to its famous historic church, the fascinating Priest's House Museum and the elegant Tivoli Theatre, where visitors can enjoy a varied programme of performances throughout the year.

A visit to Poole offers opportunities to discover one of the world's largest natural harbours, enjoy walks along the historic quayside and venture to Brownsea Island, renowned for its wildlife, woodland scenery and far-reaching coastal views.

For another memorable day out, head to Corfe Castle, where dramatic castle ruins stand above the village, heritage steam trains pass through the surrounding countryside on the Swanage Railway and walking trails reveal impressive views across the Isle of Purbeck.

Combining generous living space, attractive outdoor areas and an excellent location for exploring Dorset's countryside and coastline, The Laurels is a wonderful choice for a gathering with family and friends.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
