This freshly updated one-bedroom apartment at Homefarris House offers practical, low-effort independent living for the over-60s. Fresh carpets and recent redecoration mean it’s ready to move into without immediate work, and the first-floor position brings elevated views across the Blackmore Vale.
The building includes communal lounge and gardens plus residents’ parking, supporting an easy social routine and outdoor access. The flat’s small footprint (about 430 sq ft) is well suited to downsizers seeking manageable accommodation near Shaftesbury amenities.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property (97 years remaining) with electric room heaters rather than central heating and an EPC rating of D. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, which will be a factor for some purchasers to consider alongside the otherwise convenient location and no onward chain.
Overall, the apartment will suit someone prioritising low-maintenance, ground-community living and countryside views close to town facilities, while accepting modest space, electric heating, and leasehold tenure.
