A large detached Grade II listed stone building, a Shaftesbury landmark a few minutes level walk from the town centre, now with consent for conversion to a residential dwelling.
The Dwelling
La Fleur de Lys has been run for the last twenty years as an award-winning hotel and restaurant but now has approved listed building consent to convert to two dwellings of about 2500 sq ft each a short distance from the town centre. Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent were granted by Dorset Council on 21st May 2025 for the conversion of existing restaurant and hotel letting rooms to two dwellings and associated works - P/ful/2025/01631. La Fleur de Lys is an attractive stone building with Ashlar front and dormer windows under a pitched slate roof. To the rear of the building there are effectively two single storey additions, the first connected to the main building being brick elevations under a pitched tiled roof and a further timber clad extension (available by separate negotiation). Proposed internal accommodation will be spacious and adaptable with two dwellings being four/five bedroom with two reception rooms. There is also a cellar. The top floor could be further accommodation, home offices or storage.
Situation
The property is found on Bleke Street, a short, level walk to the Town Centre. Shaftesbury is a Saxon Hill-top town famous for Gold Hill and the Hovis advert. It has an excellent range of shops and amenities including a delicatessen, cafes, pubs, restaurant, niche retailers, a boutique hotel, banks, two supermarkets, small hospital, library, health centre and an arts centre. The area has good communication links with the A303 and the nearby town of Gillingham offers a mainline railway station to London Waterloo and the Southwest. The area is renowned for its schools, both state and private and the town has primary schools and a good secondary school.
