This charming one-bedroom character cottage is tucked away in the heart of St James, one of Shaftesbury’s most sought-after and picturesque areas. Nestled between two neighbouring properties and accessed via a quaint pathway from St James Street, this home offers a wonderful sense of privacy and old-world charm, while still being just a short walk from the town centre and its range of local amenities.
On the ground floor, you’ll find the open-plan living area, combining a cosy lounge and kitchen space, character features such as exposed beams and fireplace. Upstairs, there is a bedroom with views over the garden, and a separate bathroom.
This delightful home would make an ideal first-time buy, investment property, or peaceful retreat. Please note the fireplace has been de-commissioned.
The property is not currently registered with the Land Registry; this matter is being addressed by the solicitor.
SITUATION
St. James is situated at the foot of the iconic Gold Hill in the historic, hilltop, Saxon town of Shaftesbury. The town offers a vibrant High Street with a variety of national and independent retailers for your everyday needs including opticians, dentist, doctors and a cottage hospital. There is a selection of supermarkets nearby including Tesco, Asda and Waitrose. Communications are excellent with the A350 running from north to the south coast and the A303 to London a short distance away. The nearby town of Gillingham includes a mainline railway station with services from London Waterloo to the West Country. The area is well known for the large choice of State and Independent primary and secondary schools.
OUTSIDE
There is a small but charming garden, offering a lovely private outdoor space to enjoy. With a bit of creativity, it could easily be transformed into a peaceful retreat — perfect for morning coffee, summer dining, or simply relaxing with a book. The garden provides enough room for potted plants, a small seating area, and personal touches, making it an ideal spot for anyone looking to enjoy a bit of outdoor space in a quiet and secluded setting.
