A pink house in a rural Dorset village that offers ‘lovely’ views is currently on the market.

The three-bedroom property, based off the B3081 in Cann Common, Shaftesbury, has been put up for auction with a guide price of £240,000.

Chaffers Estate Agents say the semi-detached character property is ‘located in a rural setting approximately two miles from the hilltop of town with lovely views to the front and rear.’

The property’s brochure notes that the semi-detached property requires modernisation and can be renovated by a new buyer.

The property will be sold through a modern auction, which means that upon the acceptance of an offer or at the close of the auction, the successful buyer must place a non refundable reservation fee to the agents to reserve the property.

The auction will run for three hours on a set date and time chosen by the vendor of the property.
