About
Property Reference: 2130129. Charminster property - Available September 2026 A spacious, modernised five double-bed student property with separate lounge and dining area.
A well proportioned house located in the sought-after area of Charminster. Ideal for students looking for modern living in a period setting.

Viewing is highly recommended. Please contact for more information and to book a viewing. Current Student review⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Couldn't recommend this house or Dom enough!
This is our second year living at Shelbourne, and we'll be very sad to leave. The house is absolutely lovely - it really feels like a home rather than just a student house.
Our favourite part has to be the conservatory with the new sofa, it's become such a cosy, social space where we all relax together in the evenings to watch TV.
We honestly can't fault a single thing about the house. Parking has never been an issue - there's always plenty of space on the road, even for all five of our cars.
The location is ideal too, just a 15-minute walk from Lansdowne University campus and 10-minute walk to the train/coach station (with a bridge across the Wessex way).
Dom, our landlord, has been nothing short of amazing. His communication is always quick, and he's incredibly responsive whenever anything needs fixing, even small, non-urgent things.
He's also been so generous, providing us with a new sofa, outdoor furniture, and even a shed for our bikes and lawnmower - all of which future tenants will definitely appreciate.
We couldn't recommend this house, or Dom as a landlord, more highly. It's been a wonderful place to live, many great memories made, and we'll truly miss it. Issie.
