About this property

Hardy’s View, beautiful property set in a walled garden with 3 acres of land

The property is nestled in the hamlet of Stinsford, merely 1.5 miles of the county town. Immerse in the beauty of this location, as picturesque riverside walks hug the charming River Frome, offering an idyllic opportunity for avid walkers to relish the countryside on the doorstep. Amidst this enchanting setting, is Kingston Maurward, a Georgian Mansion. Today, it stands as an agricultural education centre, welcoming visitors to explore its grounds frequently accessible to the public. Echoing with literary acclaim, Stinsford itself boasts a unique mention in the esteemed literary historian, Nikolaus Pevsner's 'The Buildings of England' series, owing to Stinsford House and the timeless 13th-century Church of St Michael, which holds the final resting place of the renowned novelist Thomas Hardy's heart. Dorchester is a vibrant town with its traditional weekly market and a number of chain and independent stores, plus a wide range of services. There is also a lively music scene, two cinemas, an arts centre, and a range of markets, festivals, and clubs
