Front and Side

House For Sale £200,000
Shorts Lane, Blandford Forum


Description
A wonderful chance to purchase a delightful two bedroom maisonette, boasting plenty of character, presented to the market with the advantage of no onward chain and owning a share of the freehold. The property enjoys a peaceful location and is ideally placed with easy access to the town and all its' facilities as well as riverside walks and the nature reserve. We believe that the property dates to the early 1900s, when it was used as a dance hall. The property has been held by our seller for the last twenty years, during this time it has been a very successful rental property. However, it would make a fabulous first time buy, great bolt hole from a hectic working week or even as a lock up and leave UK base as well as still providing an income as a buy to let investment. The property caters for modern living with gas fired central heating and uPVC double glazing and retains character features, which include vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers, some exposed brick walls and a fabulous porthole window to the front of the building. The maisonette provides a spacious and bright interior with a contemporary open plan living area and is presented in good order with the option to decorate to one's own taste and design, as and when required. A viewing is vital to really appreciate what this lovely home has to offer and an early viewing suggested to avoid missing out on the opportunity to be the next owner.
