A detached modern home situated in a lovely elevated setting on the edge of a sought after village with marvelous far reaching country views & versatile accommodation suitable for updating
Property
An attractive modern detached house thought to have been built around 1999 with reconstituted stone external elevations under a tiled roof. Occupied by the same owners from new, the property would now benefit from some updating depending on a buyer’s needs and tastes but is otherwise well presented and offers versatility as to how it can be enjoyed. Of particular note are the outstanding views from its elevated setting over the beautiful downland countryside of the Nadder Valley.
The accommodation on the ground floor comprises a reception hall with a cloakroom, a good-sized sitting room with an open fireplace and access to a dining room as well as to a garden room which has a superb rural outlook. The large kitchen/breakfast room overlooks the garden and has a door to a storage area which is opens out to the garage. Upstairs is the principal bedroom with super views and an en-suite shower room, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate shower cubicle.
Outside
To the front is a strip of lawn, a drive providing off street parking and leading to the garage. To the back of the house is a wide terrace from which to enjoy the country outlook with steps leading down to the garden which has two levels of gently sloping lawn, flower, shrub & rose borders with a further area of garden to the side with mature lime, cherry and sycamore trees and a garden shed.
Situation
The property is situated in a small cul-de-sac in an elevated location on the edge of the sought-after community of Tisbury but within reach of the village centre, its bustling high street and station. Tisbury is the principal village of the beautiful Nadder Valley and has become a desirable place to live amongst discerning buyers due to its excellent choice of independent local shops, boutiques and eateries as well as its many facilities including a primary school, doctor’s and dental surgeries, vets, sports and community centre, garage and a station with direct rail services to London (Waterloo) and the West Country. The village is home to Messums Wiltshire, a contemporary arts centre in a 14th Century thatched tithe barn at Place Farm, the largest of its type in the country.
The Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury is 9 miles away and has a good range of shops, supermarkets, a well-respected secondary school, cottage hospital and is famous for the picturesque steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill. The medieval cathedral city of Salisbury is 14 miles distant and has more comprehensive shopping, entertainment & leisure amenities and a district hospital. The local road network gives access to the other main towns in the region including Bath, Blandford, Sherborne and Warminster as well as to the South Coast whilst the A303 links with the M3, making London accessible for the motorist. Many families are drawn to South Wiltshire by the excellent choice of state and private schools.
Set amidst the attractive undulating countryside of the Nadder Valley, part of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, Tisbury is an excellent base from which to explore many miles of footpaths and bridleways with 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, the Fovant Badges, Stourhead Gardens, Wilton House and Stonehenge.
