Open Day - Wednesday 8th January - 2pm Onwards - Strictly By Appointment
A rare opportunity to acquire a well-positioned rural development site on the edge of the hamlet of East Orchard, set within approximately two acres of land and surrounded by open Dorset countryside.
Buildings at Trapdoor Farm, Village Road to Trapdoor and Henbury Farm, East Orchard, Shaftesbury, Dorset SP7 0LG - Planning application: P/FUL/2025/05069
The site currently comprises a collection of former agricultural buildings and yard areas, with a planning consent approved by Dorset Council (Ref: P/FUL/2025/05069) for consent for the demolition of the existing buildings and the erection of three new dwellings, together with associated landscaping, groundworks, access and parking.
The site previously benefited from an approved Class Q Prior Approval (Ref: P/PAAC/2024/03521) for the conversion of the agricultural buildings into three residential dwellings, establishing the principle of residential development on the site.
The current full planning consent offers an enhanced approach, with the approved new-build dwellings designed to better suit modern living requirements, while respecting the rural character of the surrounding area.
A large barn is included (surplice to the current consent) within this offering, and in the agents opinion, subject to relevant future consent approval this may allow for another residential dwelling.
Location
East Orchard is a small, attractive rural hamlet lying approximately four miles south of Shaftesbury and within easy reach of Gillingham, which provides a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo. The area is well known for its rolling countryside, walking routes and access to the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Despite its rural setting, the site enjoys good connectivity to local towns, amenities and road networks, making it highly appealing for future residential buyers seeking countryside living without isolation.

Disclaimer: Fees of 1.5% plus VAT of the purchase price are payable to purchase this land/property due to the St Quintin Property Group not taking a fee from the seller in this instance, this needs to be considered prior to making an offer.
