A very rare opportunity to purchase a detached character cottage with potential for enlargement, set in about a third of an acre on the edge of the village, overlooking farmland.

The cottage would benefit from updating or the addition of an extension would create a wonderful family home. It is set in one of our most popular villages within walking distance of the hospital, local public houses, nursery school and dentist. The city of Salisbury with it's Medieval center and excellent facilities including a mainline train route to Waterloo, is only 3 miles away.
