Summary - 14 FAIRLANE SHAFTESBURY SP7 8RT
4 bed 1 bath Detached
South-facing garden, driveway and walking distance to town and schools.
Freehold four-bedroom detached house with generous internal space
Set on a quiet residential road on the edge of Shaftesbury, this freehold four-bedroom detached house offers generous living space across two storeys and a private south-facing rear garden. The layout includes a large lounge/diner, separate dining room, practical utility and driveway parking — features well suited to growing families seeking room to breathe and outdoor space.
The property requires some modernisation throughout: kitchen and bathroom fittings are dated and general updating is needed to bring the home to current standards. There is a single family bathroom for four bedrooms, and while the home benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating, key elements (cosmetic and mechanical) should be budgeted for. EPC rating C and cavity wall construction with partial insulation suggest reasonable energy performance but scope for improvement.
Location is a clear strength: short walking distance to the town centre and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools. Shaftesbury’s hilltop position gives good local amenities, easy access to the A303, and countryside views. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working or streaming. Council Tax is above average — factor this into running costs.
This house presents practical potential: a family can move in and progressively update rooms, or remodel to create a more contemporary layout. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot size, south-facing garden and the adaptable accommodation on offer.
