2 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

An enchanting Listed cottage situated in one of the Nadder Valley’s most sought-after villages & renovated to an excellent standard in keeping with its charming period character.

Property
An attractive Grade II Listed end-of-terrace cottage thought to date back to the late 1700’s with red brick external elevations under a clay tiled roof and with a single storey 20th century extension to the rear. In recent years the present owners have been responsible for a carefully managed and sympathetically executed refurbishment programme with great care taken to retain and indeed, enhance the intrinsic period character and charm. This has led to the creation of a beautifully presented home ideal for use as a primary rural village residence or weekend retreat.
The tastefully decorated accommodation on the ground floor comprises a late 19th Century enclosed entrance porch accessing the cosy sitting room which has a beamed ceiling, storage cupboards and an inglenook fireplace with a wooden bressomer beam and wood burner. The custom designed and fitted kitchen/breakfast room has wooden fronted units, quartz work tops and a Rangemaster cooker. Beyond the kitchen a well-appointed shower room and a good-sized family/dining room that could be used as an office or third bedroom. Upstairs there is a pretty bedroom to the front, a master bedroom to the rear with fitted cupboards and an attractively fitted family bathroom.

Outside
A door from the kitchen leads through a covered passageway/storage area with potential to create a utility/rear hall (subject to consent) to the delightful sheltered rear garden which has a patio area, steps leading up to the lawn, established flower & shrub borders and apple and ornamental trees.

Situation
The property is situated in the prestigious upper High Street of this highly desirable conservation village which has excellent facilities for a community of its size, including a shop/post-office, award-winning doctor’s surgery, primary school, church, playground and two well-known dining Inns, The Lamb and The Grosvenor. The larger village of Tisbury is three miles away and has a fine reputation for the quality of its independent shops, boutiques and amenities, which include a sports centre, garage, vets, primary school and a station with direct rail services to London (Waterloo 1hr 50 mins). It is also the home of Messums Wiltshire, a contemporary arts centre housed in an ancient thatched tithe barn.
The Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury (8 miles) has a good range of shops, a supermarket, eateries, secondary school, cottage hospital and is famous for the picturesque, steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill. The medieval cathedral city of Salisbury (16 miles) 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 linked via the local road network as is the South Coast whilst the West Country, London and the motorway network are accessible by the A303/M3. Many families are drawn to South Wiltshire by the choice and quality of the area’s state and private schools.
Set amidst the famously 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 field sports. 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, Wilton House and the Fovant Badges.
