Description

This well-proportioned barn conversion offers significant renovation and investment potential, featuring a spacious layout that could be further developed into an annexe (subject to the necessary planning permissions). Located in the tranquil hamlet of Bagber Common within the picturesque Blackmore Vale, this property provides easy access to local amenities in Stalbridge and Sturminster Newton, as well as larger towns like Sherborne and Shaftesbury. The original barn, dating back to the 1840s and converted in the 1990s, combines historic charm with modern comfort across more than 4,500 sq ft. Inside, you will find character elements such as vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and flagstone flooring alongside contemporary kitchen and bathroom fittings. Outside, the property is set on approximately 0.6 acres with mature gardens that offer privacy and scenic views. The versatile outbuilding adds further possibilities for expansion or multi-generational living. This unique property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in a rural retreat with room for enhancement.
