Summary - PAYNES PLACE BARN NEW ROAD SHAFTESBURY SP7 8QL
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious country home with annexe and almost an acre of gardens.
Grade II listed barn conversion with historic stone character
This handsome Grade II listed barn conversion occupies a generous plot on the outskirts of Shaftesbury, with sweeping views across Dorset’s Blackmore Vale. The main house offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, complemented by a one-bedroom adjoined annexe — together providing flexible accommodation of over 4,000 sq ft. Light-filled reception rooms include a large garden room and two sitting areas, while a substantial country kitchen and separate dining room suit family living and entertaining.
The grounds approach approximately one acre, with colourful, well-planted gardens, a double garage and plenty of off-road parking. The annexe is ideal for multi-generational living, long-stay guests or rental income. Practical benefits include excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, plus very low local crime and a selection of good local schools within easy reach.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status, which preserves historic character but will restrict alterations and may complicate repairs. The Energy Performance Certificate is D and council tax is described as expensive. Overall this is a substantial country home for a family or household seeking rural tranquillity with town-fringe convenience, but with conservation responsibilities and running costs to factor in.
