Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Salisbury, SP3 :
The Gables is an elegant predominantly Victorian country house which has been the subject of a programme of refurbishment by the present owners, set amidst enchanting gardens and grounds of 4.7 acres, which have themselves been transformed by the owners. Holding an elevated and commanding position taking full advantage of the extraordinary views across its own land, as well as views across the Fonthill Estate, the rooms are in the main excellent proportions and provide sophisticated and elegant accommodation over two floors. The main reception rooms offer a comfortable mix of formality and informality. The bedrooms are approached by two staircases, and as such can offer a high degree of flexibility for modern living. For those wishing to create more accommodation the current owners have secured planning permission to radically enhance the already stunning accommodation. For those with an interest in history, the house was once owned by the parents of Rudyard Kipling, and it is believed he wrote his famous novel 'Kim' whilst staying at The Gables.
Properties of this calibre are rarely seen within walking distance of Tisbury, and a viewing would afford those wishing to combine the benefits of rural living whilst being able to access all the amenities of a thriving village.
Situation
The Gables is located in an enviable position on the edge of the thriving village of Tisbury with views across the lovely rolling countryside of the Nadder Valley, and is within walking distance of a dazzling array of local amenities including shops, doctors' surgery, leisure centre, schools, library, churches and inns, including the regionally renowned Beckford Arms as well as a mainline railway station with services to London (Waterloo) under two hours and the West Country. More comprehensive facilities can be found at the historic cathedral city of Salisbury and the hill top market town of Shaftesbury whilst there are excellent road links via the A30 and A303 to the other major centres in the area, London and the motorway network. Tisbury is surrounded by the beautiful downland of the West Wiltshire Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and ideal for a number of rural pursuits such as walking, riding and cycling. Tisbury is well placed for access to all the well known local private and state schools including Godolphin, Chafyn Grove, The Cathedral School, Bishops Wordsworth and South Wilts Grammar School in Salisbury and to the west Sandroyd, Hanford, Port Regis, St Marys Shaftesbury, Clayesmore, Bryanston and Sherborne.
Outside
The Gables is approached from Hindon Lane. Open fields lie to two sides of the house and a gravel drive leads to the front of the house where there is parking for a number of cars.
The beautiful gardens and grounds, which extend to just over 4.7 acres, are an outstanding feature of the property, having been professionally designed and landscaped by the current owners. Chilmark stone terraces lie to the south and west elevations, affording views over the gardens which have been thoughtfully designed and cleverly planted, seamlessly merging formal and informal areas. An expansive south facing formal lawn features deep herbaceous borders. The formal gardens have been cleverly planted to offer a selection of 'garden rooms' offering either seclusion or raised beds for fruit and vegetable, through to a wild area, with a stunning tree fort ideal for boisterous small people. Screened by mature hedging and completely fenced is a hard court tennis court completing these lovely formal gardens. The highlight though, are the remaining grounds which sweep away from the formal areas, and are absolutely stupendous. The present owners have created a stunning, easily maintained 'park' which has been planted with hundreds of indigenous trees which have begun to mature and are a real joy to behold, and have become a haven for a multitude of wildlife species. The whole is watered electronically from the house.
Outbuildings comprise a newly constructed double bay car barn, a mower/garden store and workshop along with log store.
