Altogether, this is a superbly located home, perfectly placed to enjoy both countryside tranquillity and coastal living. <br /> <br /><b>Owners' Remarks</b> <br /> <br />As owners of Cinders we have absolutely love the lifestyle it offers. From the moment we moved here, it was the sense of peace, space, and connection to the countryside that made it feel so special. There is something incredibly relaxing about waking up to views across Crane Valley Golf Club and being surrounded by greenery, yet still being only a short walk or drive from the heart of Verwood. <br /> <br />The property itself also has a wonderful story behind it. Originally built and owned by a former Poole Speedway champion, the house was fittingly named "Cinders" after the famous cinder racing track once used at Poole Pirates in Poole. It is a unique piece of local history that gives the home real character and individuality, something we have always enjoyed sharing with friends and visitors. <br /> <br />Life here changes beautifully with the seasons. In the winter months, the kitchen truly becomes the hub of the home, a warm and welcoming space where we have spent countless evenings entertaining family and friends, especially at Christmas. It is the perfect house for gathering together, whether for long Sunday lunches, festive celebrations, or simply enjoying cosy evenings overlooking the garden and countryside beyond. <br /> <br />During the summer, the lifestyle becomes even more special. Friends and family naturally gather outside for barbecues on the patio, with the gardens providing the perfect setting for relaxed afternoons and evenings. One of our favourite traditions has been enjoying games of croquet on the lawn while the barbecue is going and the sun sets over the surrounding greenery. Combined with the easy access to Crane Valley Golf Club, summer here feels wonderfully sociable and relaxed. <br /> <br />Weekend mornings have also become one of our favourite parts of living here, taking an easy stroll into town for breakfast and coffee at a local café before enjoying the rest of the day outdoors. We have loved spending time at Remedy Oak Brewery after a round of golf or meeting friends there at weekends; it perfectly reflects the relaxed Dorset lifestyle the area is known for. <br /> <br />What we will miss most is the balance this home offers: countryside living, a wonderful community, beautiful walks, entertaining spaces filled with laughter, and the feeling of having space to breathe, all while remaining close to everything you need. It is a place that encourages you to slow down, entertain, and genuinely enjoy life.
