    Situation

    Extending in total to 2.70 acres (1.09 hectares), the property occupies a convenient yet peaceful setting, adjoining surrounding agricultural and equestrian uses. Situated just to the south of the highly regarded village of Marnhull, access is via the quiet country lane of Chippel Lane. The property is well connected, with the nearby B3092 providing direct access to the market towns of Sturminster Newton (approximately 3 miles) and Gillingham (around 7 miles). The A30 lies within a short 10-minute drive, offering excellent east–west links to the historic towns of Shaftesbury (6 miles) and Sherborne (11 miles).

    The Property

    The land is laid to permanent pasture, with the exception of a small area of hardstanding on which the field shelters are situated. The topography is predominantly level, with a gentle undulation across the southern part of the parcel. Boundaries are well defined by good quality, stock-proof fencing throughout, together with a substantial mature hedgerow incorporating established trees along the southern boundary. The property also benefits from direct ownership of its access from Chippel Lane.

    Constructed with a timber frame and externally clad in timber boarding, with internal timber ply lining, there are two 24' x 12' field shelters set on timber skids and positioned on the useful area of hardstanding. The accommodation is arranged to provide four 12' x 12' loose boxes, three of which have previously been utilised for stabling, with the southernmost box serving as a tack and feed room.

    Services

    A sub-metred mains water supply is present, a water trough is connected and situated near the two field shelters.
    Mains electricity is not present but available nearby.
