Little Court, based off Westleaze in Charminster, is currently up for sale for a cool £1,800,000.
Its property brochure states how the large home was built in 1909 and is understood to have been designed by Percy Morley Holder well known for his work during the early part of the 20th century.

The property is presented in good order throughout having been improved and updated over recent years and incorporates some period features including stone mullion windows with leaded lights and open fireplaces in a number of the rooms.
From the road, there are large stone pillars which give access to a gravelled driveway and parking area within a courtyard at the front of the house.
To the north of the house there is access to the garages. The remainder of the gardens surround the house with the main walled garden at the rear.
Within the walled garden is an outdoor swimming pool with covered gazebo changing area. Around the property’s boundaries are fine trees, shrubs and plants which provide a wonderful setting for the house.
Beyond the walled garden is a hard tennis court beyond which there is a paddock and to the southeast of the property is a large sweeping lawn.
