An intriguing property, formerly the airfield control tower with over 4.75 acres including some prime commercial land. No onward chain.

Tower house is a most unique opportunity. The property itself was the former air control tower for the original airfield and has been in ownership by the current owners for nearly forty years. The accommodation offers a ground floor two bedroom apartment of over 900 sq. ft, and then a first floor maisonette of a tremendous size with nearly 2000 sq. ft and five bedrooms plus the ?look out? on the roof. The whole house could benefit from updating and modernising but what a 'grand design' home it could be.

NOTE: Other lots are available by negotiation.

SITUATION
The property is situated right next to Henstridge Airfield in the trading estate on the Dorset / Somerset border. There is easy road access to the A30 just 700m away. The trading estate is a rapidly expanding commercial area with a vast range of business and companies. The nearby village of Stalbridge provides everyday amenities including a family run supermarket, doctors surgery, optician and primary school. Further afield are Sturminster Newton, Shaftesbury and Sherborne offering a wider range of amenities.

OUTSIDE
When arriving at the entrance to the property the drive gives a real sense of arrival as it meanders around to arrive initially at the yard. Here are two extremely useful buildings suitable for a range of uses other than the current workshops, subject to obtaining any necessary consents. The drive continues on to a lawned area measuring approximately 1 acre, used as a garden, with additional useful outbuildings. One of these buildings has some potential for a conversion/change of use.
The drive then continues up to Tower House where there is parking for several cars. The whole site offers a variety of options for a change of use and may well, due to the proximity to other commercial enterprises, suit changing the whole site to a commercial use.
