ABOUT THE PROPERTY

A spacious and characterful two-bedroom ground floor apartment, forming part of an attractive Grade II Listed building in a highly desirable town centre location.

Combining period charm with generous and versatile accommodation, this impressive home offers considerably more space than might initially be expected.

The property is approached via an impressive communal entrance, where attractive period paneling and beautiful original-style doors immediately create a sense of character and elegance. From here, the apartment opens into well-proportioned accommodation with a lovely sense of space and excellent potential to personalise.

The accommodation comprises a generous sitting room, a well-equipped kitchen/dining room providing an excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining, two good-sized bedrooms and a shower room. The apartment benefits from a particularly useful large cellar, which features an attractive barreled ceiling and provides excellent additional storage, with the potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.

A further benefit is the large loft area, providing valuable additional storage and further enhancing the versatility of the property. The combination of cellar and loft space is an unusual and highly practical.

Outside, the property enjoys its own private garden, providing a peaceful area to sit and relax, together with the significant advantage of off-road parking. The garden and parking are particularly valuable assets given the property's central town location.

Blandford Forum is a historic Georgian market town situated on the banks of the River Stour and is renowned as the home of the famous Hall and Woodhouse brewery. The town offers an excellent range of everyday amenities, including a variety of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, a weekly market, banks, doctors' surgeries, dentists, a community hospital and supermarkets. There are also excellent educational facilities for all ages together with a good range of recreational, sporting and cultural amenities.

The surrounding area is particularly attractive for those who enjoy the outdoors, with the picturesque Stour Meadows and North Dorset Trailway providing excellent opportunities for walking and cycling. The larger centres of Poole, Bournemouth and Dorchester are all readily accessible, while the beautiful Dorset countryside is on the doorstep.

Viewing comes highly recommended.
