Surrounded by the rolling chalk hills of the Dorset Downs, Rampisham is situated approximately 11 miles northwest of the county town of Dorchester and just over 7 miles to the market town of Beaminster, both offering comprehensive facilities. Only 1.5 miles away is Evershot with its village store/post office, popular pub, and highly regarded Spa at the Summer Lodge Country House Hotel. Mainline railway links can be found at Both Dorchester and Maiden Newton
One of the most salient features of this property is its generous plot, amounting to just shy of two acres. There is a selection of outbuildings, the largest of which was formally used as a kennels/ cattery, two former stables/ animal shelters and area of hardstanding which is believed to have supported a Dutch style barn. There is the possibility to develop these buildings further subject to the necessary consents. Please ask agent for further details on this. There is currently a verbal agreement of access with the neighbouring land owner to use the access on the north eastern border to maintain the hedging and access the adjacent fields.
