Full Details for 2 Bedroom Detached for sale in Salisbury, SP5 :

Hideaway Cottage is the epitome of a quintessential, yet deceptively spacious \‘chocolate box\‘ thatched cottage situated in the highly desirable picturesque village of Bodenham.

This enchanting Grade II Listed property is spacious beyond expectation, full of character and has been redecorated and re-thatched to create a comfortable country retreat set in pretty landscaped gardens. This beautifully presented cottage is truly a lifestyle home.

The heart of Hideaway Cottage is believed to date back to the 1771, although various additions have transformed the cottage into the home you find today, providing ample space for modern flexible living. The current owners have sympathetically yet stylishly updated the house, adding modern convenience whilst retaining the heritage of the original cottage as seen by the exposed original beams and wood burning stove housed in the original Inglenook fireplace. The accommodation is both ample and versatile with the ground floor comprising of a sitting room/ dining room, recently fitted kitchen, conservatory and ground floor bathroom. On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms and a sizeable landing.

The cottage is well positioned to the front of its gardens with a shingled driveway providing parking for several vehicles. The gardens, in the majority, are to the rear of the property, boasting a southerly aspect and offer a wealth of privacy and seclusion.
