Summary - 9 BREACH LANE SHAFTESBURY SP7 8LE
5 bed 4 bath Character Property
Spacious character home with large garden and sweeping rural views.
Converted Victorian Gothic Revival chapel with high vaulted ceilings
The Old Chapel is a striking converted Victorian Gothic Revival chapel offering over 3,500 sq ft of flexible family living on the edge of Shaftesbury. Built of local stone under a slate roof, the house combines grand vaulted spaces, arched windows and exposed beams with contemporary fittings such as a large kitchen/breakfast room, underfloor heating and modern double glazing.
Accommodation includes five double bedrooms, a ground-floor master with en-suite, three further principal reception rooms and a bright galleried landing that captures far-reaching countryside views. The garden is private and sizeable with raised decking, and there is gravel parking for up to three vehicles plus a timber workshop with power and light.
The property has been well maintained and presented in good order by the current owners, yet it still offers scope for cosmetic updating to suit a buyer’s taste. Two second-floor en-suites are partially installed and require finishing. The stone walls are historic and assumed to be uninsulated, which is typical for a building of this age and may influence heating costs despite the installed underfloor system.
Situated a short walk from the town centre and local schools, this detached, chain-free home suits a growing family wanting distinctive character, generous space and countryside outlooks in a very affluent, low-crime area.
