This end-terrace stone cottage sits tucked away in a quiet courtyard just a level walk from Shaftesbury high street. Recently renovated, the house combines traditional character—stone façade, cornicing and good ceiling heights—with a modern 2019 kitchen/diner, quality bathroom fittings and new radiators.
Accommodation is well-proportioned for a two-bedroom home: a large sitting room, spacious kitchen/dining room, two double bedrooms and loft storage. Practical extras include double glazing (installed before 2002), a burglar alarm, and gas central heating. The property is freehold and offered chain-free, enabling a quicker move.
Outside space is compact but attractive: an enclosed courtyard garden accessed from the sitting room provides private outdoor seating. The location puts local shops, cafés, schools and community amenities within easy reach, with mainline stations and the A303 accessible for longer journeys.
Notable considerations: the building is of traditional green sandstone with no fitted wall insulation (assumed) and double glazing predates 2002, so further energy upgrades are possible. The surrounding area records higher crime levels than average, and the plot is small — this is a town-centre cottage rather than a large garden property. EPC rating D is current. These factors are important if long-term running costs and insulation are priorities.
