The situation

Motcombe village is situated in the beautiful countryside of North Dorset, between the attractive hilltop town of Shaftesbury, home of the Hovis advert, and Gillingham which benefits from a main line railway station serving London Waterloo and the South West. Motcombe benefits from various amenities including a community run village shop, a church and a public house/hotel. There are countryside walks from the door step and plenty of activities and clubs based at the village Memorial Hall. The nearby towns of Shaftesbury and Gillingham offer a selection of supermarkets and services including doctors, dentists, opticians and vets. A more refined retail experience can be had at Bath, Salisbury or Bournemouth, all within a 35 mile radius. There is a wide choice of local independent and private Primary and Secondary Schools in the vicinity including in the village itself. Local leisure activities include rugby, football and netball clubs, wi, bridge and yoga at the village hall, and golf, horse-riding, walking and much more locally.
Outside

Set within a generous 1⁄4 acre plot, this home occupies a commanding, elevated position on the periphery of the village.

Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (aml) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365" to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
