Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Shaftesbury, SP7 :
A beautifully presented & extended converted barn of wonderful charm & character with stylish open plan spacious living and situated in a lovely rural yet accessible setting.
Property
This lovely home was originally a traditional detached agricultural barn before being converted to residential use circa 1990 and has since been substantially extended to create a good-sized family house with living space that is more generous than might be readily apparent at first glance. With a mix of stone and rendered external elevations under a slate tiled roof, in recent years the property has undergone a number of carefully considered improvements carried out by local craftsmen so as to create a beautifully presented and stylish home ideal for use either as a primary residence or country retreat.
The accommodation on the ground floor includes a welcoming reception hall/study area, a spacious sitting room with a cast iron woodburner and oak flooring, a light and airy dining room overlooking the garden with underfloor heating and opening to the custom designed and fitted farmhouse style kitchen that has a large granite topped island unit. There is also cloak/utility room on this level. Upstairs there is a master bedroom with a deep walk-in closet and en-suite shower room, three further bedrooms, a family room that could be used as an occasional 5th bedroom and a family bathroom.
Outside
The lovely garden is mainly arranged to two sides of the house and includes areas of lawn with flower, shrub and rose borders, ornamental trees, graveled paths, a wooden deck, graveled seating area, chicken enclosure, wooden garden shed, tool shed and a gate giving access to the common at the front. There is also a graveled parking area with space for two cars.
Situation
The property is situated close to the Wiltshire/Dorset border in a pleasant country setting amongst a small cluster of homes, farms and local businesses between the rural hamlet of Sedgehill and the popular village of Semley. The latter is home to the excellent community run Semley Village Stores with its popular café and also has a well performing primary school, church, village hall and traditional country pub; The Benett Arms which was the Heart of Wessex CAMRA pub of the year 2015. The nearby A350 gives convenient access to the North Dorset Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury which is just four miles away and has a good range of shops, supermarkets, eateries, an up and coming secondary school, cottage hospital and is famous for the picturesque steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill.
There are railways stations at Tisbury (5.5 mile) and Gillingham (6.7 miles) with direct rail services to London (Waterloo) and the West Country. The local road network gives ready access to the other main towns in the area including Bath, Blandford, Salisbury, Sherborne and Warminster as well as to the South Coast whilst the A303 trunk road linking with the M3 motorway, makes London accessible for the motorist. The region is well known for having a wide choice of highly regarded schools in both the state and private sectors.
Located at the western edge of the Nadder Valley, part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to where it meets the Blackmore Vale, Gum Tree Barn is an ideal base for a variety of rural pursuits such as walking, riding, cycling and fishing. There are golf courses at Tollard Royal, Salisbury and Warminster with racing at Bath, Salisbury and Wincanton and sailing at Shear Water near Warminster. There are several excellent dining pubs in the vicinity as well as many places of interest such as Old Wardour Castle, the Longleat Estate, Wilton House and the Fovant Badges.
