Features and description

A delightful 'project' waiting for a new lease of life. Located in a tucked away position yet close to amenities.

Ivy Cross Cottage is a delightful 19th century property brimming with character and charm. The cottage has been in the same family for over forty years and now offers a new owner a superb opportunity to create a home individually tailored to their own style and vision.
Inside, the cottage features three reception rooms: a cosy lounge with Inglenook fireplace, a more formal room with a large window that allows natural light to pour in, and a garden room. The galley kitchen could be reconfigured by including the sitting room to create a more spacious and sociable layout.
Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, along with both a bathroom and a separate shower room, giving plenty of flexibility or re-design.
This cottage is ideal for buyers seeking a project with excellent space, character, and convenience to the town centre.

SITUATION
Shaftesbury is a Saxon Hilltop town which provides an eclectic mix of well-known and independent shops, cafes and pubs as well as a good range of everyday amenities such as opticians, dentist and a cottage hospital. For a more extensive retail experience the larger cities of Salisbury and Bath are 30 - 45 minutes’ drive. The area is well known for the large choice of State and Independent primary and secondary schools and a variety of leisure pursuits including horse riding, walking, golf, rugby and more. Communications are good with the A30 and A350 passing through the town and there is a mainline railway station at Gillingham (5 miles). Local international airports are at Bristol, Exeter and Southampton.

OUTSIDE
The property is set back from the road. There is generous hard-standing to allow for ample parking and a timber garage with light and power. The garden mainly lies to one side and includes plenty of lawn plus a large workshop, providing excellent space for hobbies, storage, or further development (subject to planning). There are a variety of trees and direct access into Pensbury Woods. Behind the property is a small extra garden and two further small sheds.

SERVICES
Main water, drainage and electricity are connected to the property. Superfast broadband is available and most mobile networks have good coverage ( outside ).
