Farthing Cottage is a magnificent Grade II Listed period home, boasting close to 4,000 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation. Dating back to the 1700's, this distinguished property retains a wealth of period features including striking inglenook fireplaces with timber bressummers and chamfered ceiling beams, seamlessly blended with contemporary enhancements.

The home is conveniently located within easy reach of the town path which takes you straight into the city centre with its array of amenities, including educational establishments and Waitrose, approximately a 10 minute walk.

Having undergone a comprehensive refurbishment, the house now offers a perfect balance of historic character and modern living. Situated on the edge of the City, Farthing Cottage benefits from a prestigious and instantly recognisable position, with superb, uninterrupted views towards Old Sarum Castle and easy access to local amenities.

The accommodation includes an impressive sitting room featuring an original fireplace, providing a warm and inviting focal point. Adjacent to this is an elegant formal dining room, perfect for entertaining guests. There is also a study, which benefits from its own charming fireplace, ideal for a quiet workspace or library. The heart of the home is the extensive modern kitchen and breakfast room, thoughtfully designed and complemented by an adjoining laundry room and larder, offering both style and practicality. Completing the ground floor is a playroom/office with worktop space and a sink.

The principal bedroom suite is a standout feature, boasting a stunning vaulted ceiling that creates a spacious and airy atmosphere. This suite also includes a luxurious en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe, offering a perfect blend of comfort and convenience. In addition to the principal suite, there are four further generously sized bedrooms, many of which retain original period features that add character and charm. These bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom, with an additional shower room also available to accommodate family and guests.

Additionally, a detached, listed thatched Studio annex offers a versatile space with its own kitchen area and shower room — ideal as a home office, games room, or guest suite.
