Far reaching views
Potential to re configure and update
Fast fibre internet
Quiet yet convenient location

Built in the 1980’s, Peppercorn is an attractive modern house built principally of brick under a pitched clay tile roof set well back from The Glebe. Bought by the current owners approximately 40 years ago, Peppercorn has been well maintained but is now in need of general updating. The accommodation is sensibly configured with a large entrance hall, an attractive sitting room with open fireplace and inset woodburner. The dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and study overlook the rear garden and have a spectacular easterly outlook over the surrounding countryside as do three of the bedrooms.

Peppercorn is approached off The Glebe onto a short tarmac drive adjoining which is the double garage with two up and over doors. The front garden is principally laid to lawn screened by tall beech hedging. The majority of the garden is to the rear and can be accessed via French windows from the dining room which lead onto a raised terrace with steps down to the rear garden. This is principally to lawn flanked on both sides by closeboard fencing. There are a variety of well stocked flower and shrub borders with sedum, lavender, roses, clematis and fushia. Towards the end of the garden there is a trellis which screens a former vegetable garden. The rear garden backs onto fields.

Peppercorn is situated in the delightful village of Shroton, which lies midway between Shaftesbury and Blandford Forum. It is a pretty and popular village with The Cricketers pub, a cricket ground, a large village green and a children’s playground. The neighbouring village of Iwerne Minster has a good range of everyday facilities, including an excellent post office/village store, a pub, a children’s playground and a popular café (The Writers Block) at Clayesmore School. For a wider range of facilities there is the Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury to the north, and the Georgian town of Blandford Forum to the south. Both Blandford Forum and Shaftesbury have a wide range of shops including supermarkets, delicatessens, cafes, doctors and dental surgeries, libraries, an arts centre, veterinary surgeries, small hospitals and schools. There are mainline railway stations in both Tisbury and Gillingham (London Waterloo) and the A303 lies some 17 miles to the north giving access to the South West and London, via the M3.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 25, 2022

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
