Description

Church House is a substantial and charming period detached house located in the popular village of Shillingstone, with large gardens and far-reaching views. Built approximately 300 years ago as a farmhouse for the Portman Estate, the house has been extended and adapted over the years, offering spacious living accommodation over two floors. The property boasts exposed beams, feature fireplaces, high ceilings, and sash windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The house has the potential to be used as a family home with a separate annexe for a dependent relative or visiting family, or as a B&B. The large garden is bordered by a brick and flint wall and offers a variety of fruit trees, established flower and shrub borders, and a 'secret' vegetable and fruit garden. The property is situated in a popular village with excellent schools and walking distance to the local Church Centre, which operates as a Post Office, Café, and Computer Workshop. The larger centres of Poole, Dorchester, and Salisbury are all within 20 miles, and trains to London Waterloo from Salisbury take about 1 hour 30 minutes.
