The homes at Blackmore Down are from our award winning Heritage Collection, inspired by the Arts and Crafts architectural movement of the 1930s. Heritage Collection homes benefit from open-plan and contemporary interiors, with high ceilings and integrated appliances. Whereas, exteriors are traditional, featuring gable ended roofs, porches and red or yellow brick exteriors.
Once fully complete, the development will comprise 170 new homes to suit a range of buyers and lifestyles. Situated on the edge of Shaftesbury, the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is right on residents’ doorsteps. Blackmore Down is great for those who love the outdoors, for growing families, right through to ‘rightsizers’ looking for a new home in a rural setting.
Mark Vanson, Sales Director at our Southern Counties division comments: “The launch of a show home is often a pivotal point when bringing forward a new community, as house hunters are able to visualise and experience what their new home could look like.
“We are providing a range of show homes at Blackmore Down to showcase the variety of house types available, each with tailored layouts and features to suit a range of preferences and lifestyles.
“The carefully planned design of our homes, together the idyllic location of Blackmore Down is set to spark further buyer interest, so we encourage house hunters to drop into our launch to see the budding community first-hand.”
Shaftesbury benefits from a busy annual calendar as the host of Dorset Arts Week in late May, Shaftesbury Fringe at the end of June and the Gold Hill Fair in July. Aside from ad-hoc events, there are plenty of amenities to enjoy all year round, from Michelin star restaurants, pubs, shops and highly rated schools.
Close to Salisbury and Yeovil, Shaftesbury is well connected. The closest train station is only five miles away in Gillingham, with direct trains to London Waterloo in just under two hours, and trains to Salisbury and Exeter in 30 and 90 minutes retrospectively.
Prices start from £309,950 for a three-bedroom home, and the Government backed Help to Buy scheme is available on select homes. Our very own Help to Sell initiative is also available for those looking to move or down-size and can be used in conjunction with Help to Buy.
