Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Shaftesbury, SP7 :
Cann Farm presents a wonderful lifestyle opportunity to purchase a gorgeous residential farm centred around a stunning listed farmhouse and gardens with a picturesque cottage and barns with 9.12 acres of pasture land situated on the outskirts of the highly sought after Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury.
The farmhouse, cottage and barns are constructed out of traditional Shaftesbury green sandstone elevations under pitched slate roofs and arranged around a beautiful central courtyard offering uninterrupted views across to Melbury Beacon.
The farmhouse itself is a handsome unspoilt period property of tremendous character with numerous light and airy rooms traditionally arranged to be an ideal welcoming family home.
This glorious home boasts a wealth of period features, including moulded cornicing, original sandstone fireplaces (some dating back to the 1840s) original Well head, blue lias stone floors and newly refurbished sash windows. The farmhouse has undergone considerable renovation in recent decades, points to note include the installation of a comprehensive heating system, under floor heating in the additions, re wiring and a new roof. The home has been redecorated throughout by the current vendors and is now presented to a tasteful and impeccable decorative level throughout.
The generous accommodation is arranged over two floors, the ground floor accommodation comprising of a superb 'heart of the home' kitchen breakfast room, snug, dining room, formal sitting room, stunning garden room, utility room, larder, wet room and boot room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, including a generous master suite with en-suite bathroom and dressing area and another en-suite double bedroom. The other two bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom. Thanks to the elevated position of the home each room boasts open aspect views across the gardens to the Blackmore Vale countryside.
Situation
The Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury provides a range of everyday services and shops including public houses, cafes, restaurants, independent and high street shops, a doctor's surgery and a cottage hospital. The local schools are excellent and within easy reach; these include St Mary's School, Clayesmore, Port Regis, Sandroyd, Millfield, Canford, Sherborne School for Girls, St Anthony's Leweston and many highly regarded local state schools. The communication links in the area are very good with the A303 just a few miles to the north providing road access to London & the West and a mainline railway station at either Gillingham (5 miles) or Tisbury (9.3 miles) serving London Waterloo (approximately two hours).
Outside
Over the years considerable thought and consideration has gone into the arrangement and presentation of the formal gardens. 'Garden rooms' have been created with abundant borders, productive vegetable patch, orchard, numerous spring bulbs, mature trees, secluded seating areas and a natural spring pond, all linked by flowing pathways.
The paved terrace and mature lawns adjacent to the farmhouse enjoy unrivalled far reaching views to the south west across the Blackmore Vale undulating countryside, creating an ideal area to entertain and dine al fresco.
The land extends to approximately 9.12 acres of well maintained, established pasture land arranged into five newly fenced paddocks. There are two private trout lakes, ideal for fly fishing that have been securely fenced with seating areas.
An additional 5.55 acres of grazing land is available upon subject to separate negotiation.
The outbuildings include a garage, several store rooms, a large corner barn used as a wood store and a stunning two storey barn with original double height doors currently used as another garage, store and general play room on the first floor.
Planning permission is believed to be implemented for the conversion of agricultural barns to form two holiday lets and erect one single storey extension, car parking spaces, and carry out internal and external alterations including replacing windows and doors. Full plans can be viewed on the North Dorset District Council website, planning reference 2/2008/0297.
Additional Information
The stunning farm cottage, Stable Barn, was converted in recent years by the current owners. Much thought and attention has been paid to creating characterful spacious accommodation. Features to note include a log burner, exposed beams and floorboards, original stable doors and flag stone flooring.
On the ground floor there is a large open plan sitting room/ dining room with a separate well appointed country style kitchen. On the first floor there is a gorgeous light and airy vaulted bedroom with en-suite bathroom, complete with a free standing roll top bath.
This glorious barn is complemented by the hedged private gardens. The paved terrace surrounds a central carp pond that flows from the rear of the home, floral borders frame the terrace.
Stable Barn was successfully used as a holiday cottage for many years before becoming private ancillary accommodation for the main farmhouse.
