The North Dorset Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury is famed for the iconic cobbled street of Gold Hill and rich history going back to the times of King Alfred. Shaftesbury is a delightful community orientated town with an attractive and bustling High Street that provides most everyday requirements including a farmers’ market, cafés, charity shops, various retail shops, veterinary practice and a cottage hospital. The local road network offers strong connections to the other main towns in the region including Gillingham, Salisbury, Sherborne, Warminster and Yeovil as well as to the South Coast. In addition the A303 links with the M3 that makes London accessible for the motorist. There are railway stations at Gillingham (4.5 miles) and Tisbury (8 miles) with mainline services to London (Waterloo) and the West Country. Families are drawn to this area by the quality of life and excellent choice of state and independent schools including Port Regis, Clayesmore, Sandroyd and Bryanston amongst many others. Shaftesbury also offers several ways to explore the stunning countryside and traditionally English villages of the Blackmore Vale, Cranborne Chase and Wiltshire Downs with their miles of peaceful public footpaths and bridleways.

Upon entering you are met with a generous hallway with access to a cloakroom before leading through to the main sitting room. Here, a large front window along with split wooden and glass panel internal doors allow for plentiful natural light whilst the room itself offers space for all typical living furniture set against an attractive wooden engineered flooring. The kitchen breakfast room features stylish Metro tiles, high gloss cupboards and a quartz work surface with tiled flooring and room for freestanding appliances alongside the integral over and dishwasher. Upstairs the attention to detail continues with a principal bedroom that has been enhanced via built in wardrobes and a tiled ensuite shower room. The two remaining bedrooms are again of good proportions with the three-piece family bathroom concluding the accommodation.
