Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Salisbury, SP3 :

An attractive extended period farmhouse in an accessible edge of village setting with adaptable family accommodation, rural views and extensive grounds including a paddock.


Property
A detached traditional country home believed to date back to the 18th Century with extensions thought to have been added in the 1970’s. With rendered external elevations under a tiled roof, the older parts of the property still retain a number of period features. Enjoyed as a family residence for many years, the house would now benefit from some updating, offering the opportunity for a new owner to put their own mark on it and to create a super, rural yet accessible home set amidst the lovely countryside of the Nadder Valley.
The ground floor accommodation includes a welcoming reception hall, a lovely triple aspect sitting room with an open fireplace and a pleasant south and westerly facing outlook and a character dining room with an inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. The fitted kitchen/breakfast room has an oil fired Aga and there is also an enclosed entrance porch, cloakroom, rear lobby and access via a covered passage to a utility/store room. Upstairs the master bedroom has lovely country views and there are four further bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which also has a separate shower cubicle.

Outside
To the front of the property a wooden five bar gate leads to a graveled drive providing parking and opening to a large area of garden that is mainly laid to lawn with flower and shrub borders and a variety of deciduous trees. At the back of the house a paved terrace leads to the rear lawned garden with ornamental trees, greenhouse and wood store. Wooden gates at the front give access to a level, fenced and watered paddock. A second field may be available by separate negotiation.

Situation
The property is situated on the edge of the popular Nadder Valley village of Dinton, an active rural community with a thriving primary school, church, well-stocked shop/post office run by the local residents, recreation ground, village hall, pub and various clubs. The National Trust owned Phipps Park allows public access to it lovely parkland and woodland walks. The larger nearby village of Tisbury has a good range of amenities, shops and a station with rail services to London (Waterloo). The small town of Wilton, the ancient capital of Wessex and famous for the stately home and landscaped gardens of Wilton House, is around 5 miles distant whilst the medieval cathedral city of Salisbury is just beyond and offers more comprehensive shopping, leisure and cultural facilities as well as a district hospital and station.
The region’s other principal towns including Bath, Blandford, Shaftesbury, Sherborne and Warminster are all accessible via the local road network as is the South Coast, the West Country and the motorway network. Many families are drawn to South Wiltshire by the excellent choice of state and private schools situated in Salisbury and the surrounding area. 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, Dinton 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.
