Brinscombe Lane, Shaftesbury

A chalet style house in an elevated position on the edge of Shaftesbury offering flexible accommodation, private rear garden and exceptional southerly views.

The Property - The entrance hall is central to the house and has a large reception room off to the left with an adjoining conservatory. There is a feature fireplace and further sitting area at the far end and the conservatory embraces those wonderful southerly views across the Blackmore Vale. Continuing off the hallway is a separate dining room next to the kitchen. A range of wall and floor units and island and the usual appliances are here along with a larder and stretches back to the rear entrance and utility room or rear boot room. There are two sizeable bedrooms downstairs, the larger being used as an office / snooker room, as well as a family bathroom.

Highlighting the flexibility of the house, there are stairs that take you to three further bedrooms and currently an en suite shower, although there is scope to create more a more expansive bathroom. A large walk in attic style room with Velux window that has been used as a bedroom in the past is through bedroom 2.

Outside - Oysters is approached via a private road off the Lower Blandford Road and serves only four other properties only. There is parking in front on the drive headed with a large single garage with good depth and storage / workshop behind. The house is raised up above the lane with a pretty front garden with extensive patio area immediately off the conservatory French doors. Oysters is therefore set back a little in the plot giving a level lawned garden, behind a wall, with mature borders and al fresco areas to the front.

The rear garden is mainly laid to a level lawn with paths and sitting areas in abundance with trees and bordered by hedges and mature flower beds - a fine setting from the house. A highly productive vegetable garden is behind the garage along with hard standing paths and a greenhouse.

Situation - Shaftesbury has an excellent range of shop and amenities including a delicatessen, cafes, pubs, restaurant, niche retailers, a boutique hotel, banks, two supermarkets, small hospital, library, health centre and an arts centre. The area has good communication links with the A303 and the nearby town of Gillingham offers a mainline railway station to London Waterloo and the Southwest. The area is renowned for its schools, both state and private and the town has primary schools and a good secondary school.
