Sadly it wouldn't help you in any way.
Your line wouldn't be terminated at that cabinet it would go on to the exchange unless you ordered FTTC.
If you ordered FTTC your order would be rejected as you are too far from the cabinet to get a signal over that technology.
If Openreach deployed ADSL / ADSL 2 from cabinet it wouldn't help you either. They have to do things with power masks to avoid drowning out broadband from the exchange.
You wouldn't even get a land line now if your property were built today. If you are getting over 2Mb you won't be a priority, that's the lower limit under the universal service commitment. Your only option for faster is probably satellite.
