Summary - 38 FLAT 3 BELL STREET SHAFTESBURY SP7 8AE
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Character features, parking and long lease close to Shaftesbury high street.
Two double bedrooms across first and second floors
Set across the first and second floors of a Victorian terrace, this two-bedroom maisonette brings period character into a central Shaftesbury location. High ceilings, sash windows, exposed beams and a feature fireplace create immediate charm, while the dual-aspect lounge and kitchen/diner provide comfortable living space for downsizers seeking town-centre convenience.
Practical details include a long 999-year lease (from 2004) with a share of freehold, off-street parking, a shared low-maintenance yard and gas central heating. The accommodation is a sensible size at around 870 sq ft, with a contemporary bathroom and separate WC already in place.
Buyers should note some trade-offs: the building is Victorian stone with assumed lack of wall insulation, possible damp in parts and an overall need for updating in places. The local area records higher crime levels, which may concern some purchasers. Prospective buyers should verify service condition (boiler, electrics) and structural/condensation issues with surveys and legal checks.
For someone looking to downsize without sacrificing town-centre living, this maisonette offers a mix of historic character and practical tenure. Early viewing is recommended to assess potential and decide on any renovation priorities.
