Stour Row, Shaftesbury

This Grade II listed farmhouse, a notable example of Marnhull stone architecture dating back to the early 17th century, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and modernization. Great House Farm has been preserved within the same family for over a century and offers extensive character through its original features such as exposed stonework, ceiling beams, deep window seats, and open fireplaces. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room includes wooden cabinets and leads to a utility room and office area. An impressive converted barn serves as a games room, boasting a vaulted ceiling that enhances its grandeur. Upstairs are three double bedrooms along with bathroom facilities, while additional attic rooms offer potential for further development. The property also includes outbuildings that could be repurposed into an exceptional family kitchen with bi-fold doors leading to a sunny terrace—subject to obtaining the necessary listed building consents. Externally, the vast grounds extend nearly an acre with well-kept lawns and mature trees that frame fantastic rural views toward the south and west. This expansive garden space allows for various landscaping possibilities or further agricultural use, increasing investment potential. Situated in the welcoming village of Stour Row, this farmhouse benefits from good access to local amenities in nearby Shaftesbury and has easy routes to main roads and rail connections. With mains services already connected and existing oil-fired central heating, this property stands ready for its next chapter of care and improvement.
