Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Salisbury, SP3 :
A most attractive exquisitely refurbished extended period cottage of tremendous charm & character with a delightfully landscaped garden situated in a sought after rural village.
Property
A detached Grade II Listed period property thought to date back to the 1700’s, originally a pair of cottages and built largely with Flemish bond brick external elevations under a clay tiled roof. In recent years it has been extensively refurbished and modernised but with a great deal of care taken so as to retain and indeed, enhance the many period features so as to create a stylish home of considerable charm and character.
Amongst the many improvements is the addition of a magnificent oak framed extension designed by a leading local architect and built by highly respected craftsmen providing a new reception hall and a superb kitchen/dining room. The high vaulted ceiling and generous use of glass makes for a light and airy hub-of-the-house space fitted with bespoke made granite topped units, larder cupboards, breakfast bar and underfloor heating.
Fitted to a very high standard and tastefully decorated, the accommodation is beautifully presented and all the main rooms have a sunny outlook. These include on the ground floor; a pretty sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and woodburner, a family room with an open fire, a second hall and a study/den which, together with the adjoining shower room, would make an ideal guest suite or annexe. Upstairs are four bedrooms and an excellent contemporary bathroom with a double-ended bath and separate shower cubicle.
Outside
Wooden gates lead to a graveled drive and onto the particularly attractive, landscaped southeast facing garden with areas of lawn, pretty borders well stocked with a variety of interesting flowers, shrubs and roses, ornamental & fruit trees and a stone paved terrace. Beyond the kitchen is a southwest facing terrace, further area of lawn, vegetable garden and gravelled sitting area. The garden is bordered by a mix of established beech hedging and wooden fencing.
Situation
The property is situated off the attractive broad tree lined High Street of the ever sought after and thriving conservation village of Hindon with its mix of old brick and Chilmark stone houses and cottages. The village’s excellent facilities include a community run shop/post office, primary school, doctor’s surgery, church, playground and two well-known dining pubs; The Lamb and The Angel. The larger village of Tisbury is just three miles away and has good everyday shopping and local amenities as well as a station with mainline rail services to London (Waterloo).
The North Dorset Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury is nearby and has a good range of shops, supermarkets, eateries, an up and coming secondary school, cottage hospital and is famous for the picturesque steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill. The medieval cathedral city of Salisbury has more comprehensive shopping, arts & leisure facilities and a district hospital. The area’s other principal towns including Bath, Blandford, Sherborne and Warminster are all accessible via the local road network as is the South Coast, West Country and motorway network. Many families are drawn to South Wiltshire by the excellent choice of state and private schools. There are regional airports at Bournemouth, Bristol and Southampton.
Set amidst the particularly attractive undulating countryside of the Nadder Valley, part of the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Hindon is an excellent base from which to explore the many miles of local footpaths and bridleways and there are a variety of rural pursuits available including walking, riding, cycling and fishing. Sailing can be found at Shearwater near Warminster, racing is at Salisbury, Bath and Wincanton and golf at Tollard Royal, Warminster and Salisbury. There are several excellent dining pubs in the vicinity as well as many places of interest such as the Longleat Estate, Old Wardour Castle, Stourhead Gardens, Fovant Badges and Stonehenge.
