AMOUNGST MATURE AND PRETTY GARDENS

SITUATION
Camber Lodge is accessed off Salisbury Street, in central
Shaftesbury, along an attractive brick set driveway. Shaftesbury is
a Saxon hilltop town which dates back to the times of Alfred the
Great who founded the Abbey in the 9th century. Local facilities
include cafes, restaurants, niche retailers, a boutique hotel, banks,
supermarkets, a small hospital, library, health centre and an arts
centre with cinema. More comprehensive facilities can be found
in the Cathedral city of Salisbury to the east, the Georgian spa town
of Bath to the north and Sherborne to the west. There are mainline
railway stations at both Gillingham and Tisbury (London Waterloo)
and the A303 lies some 8 miles to the north, giving access to the
south west and London, via the M3.
THE PROPERTY
Dating from the late 20th century, Camber Lodge is an impressive
family house with generously proportioned accommodation over
two floors and constructed of brick under a pitched clay tile roof.
The accommodation is sensibly configured and is extremely light
and bright. Other attributes worthy of a mention include the French
doors leading from the kitchen-dining room from the hall area, and
from the drawing room through into an adjoining sun room.
OUTSIDE
The property is approached off Salisbury Street, the drive arcing
through impressive, mature trees and opening out into a large brickset
parking area, which gives access both to the front of the house
and the integrated double garage. (The drive is shared with one other
neighbouring property).
Accessed from both sides of the house, there are delightful gardens
to the rear, they are mainly laid to lawn and are enhanced with
flowers, shrubs, mature hedging and a beautiful rose-covered
pergola – all of which is linked to the house by extensive terracing.
