The perfect chocolate box English country cottage in a glorious yet accessible rural setting with beautifully presented accommodation and a delightfully landscaped garden.



Property

A fine example of an English country cottage. Detached and built with a mix of greensand stone and mellow brick external elevations under a mainly thatched roof with a clay tiled extension, this very pretty period property is not listed. In recent years it has been comprehensively refurbished and improved with great care taken to retain and indeed, enhance the intrinsic period character and charm whilst at the same time including high quality, sympathetically designed modern fittings. This beautifully presented home would be ideal for someone looking for either a rural primary residence or a ‘get-away-from-it-all’ weekend retreat.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors with the front door giving split level access. On the ground floor this comprises of a hall, cloakroom, a lovely sitting room overlooking the garden with an open inglenook fireplace, a very well fitted kitchen/dining room equipped with Kuppersbusch appliances and a utility/boot room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, all of which have lovely views over the garden and a luxuriously appointed bathroom with a double ended roll top bath.


Outside
An undoubted feature is the delightful southerly facing garden with a backdrop of lovely countryside and amounting to around a quarter of an acre. This includes an expansive area of lawn bisected by a small winterborne stream with attractive well stocked flower, shrub and rose borders, paved and slate seating areas, ornamental, fruit and willow trees, paved path, good sized pond, an area of woodland, large wooden deck with adjoining water feature and a double garden shed with wood store. At the upper end of the garden is a gravelled and partly fenced parking area not owned but used by the property.


Situation
Surrounded by gently undulating farm and woodland, 122 Upton is situated in the most picturesque of rural settings off a small country lane in the tiny hamlet of Upton which is around a mile and a half from the nearby village of East Knoyle, famous as the birthplace of Sir Christopher Wren in 1632. East Knoyle has a community run shop/post office, village hall, parish church and playground whilst closer still and just half a mile away, is the neighbouring hamlet of The Green with its excellent dining pub; The Fox and Hounds. Upton is situated within the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with miles of varied footpaths and bridleways close at hand from which to explore the wonderful local countryside.

Located in a tranquil, tucked away setting, Upton is actually easily accessible with two important roads just a mile and a half away. Between them, the A350 and A303 provide links to the main towns in the area including Shaftesbury, Salisbury, Bath, Blandford, Warminster, Wincanton and Yeovil as well as to the South Coast, London, the West Country and motorway network. There are mainline rail services from both Tisbury and Gillingham to London (Waterloo) and the nearest regional airports are at Bournemouth and Bristol. Upton is well placed for several highly respected schools in both the state and private sectors. Racing is at Salisbury, Bath and Wincanton with golf at Tollard Royal, Sherborne and Salisbury. There are several famous visitor attractions nearby such as the National Trust gardens at Stourhead, the stately home and safari park at Longleat and the World Heritage prehistoric site at Stonehenge.
