1 New Hook Cottages is believed to date from the mid 20th century, built as a farm worker’s cottage on the Wardour Estate and bearing the hallmarks of that era. Constructed of block elevations under a tiled roof, the property has been let for many years and maintained to a standard, but is now in need of general refurbishment and has the potential for extension, subject to the necessary consents.
Outside Parking is currently to the front of the property, but the garden skirts down the side with a gravel path and raised lawn (where more parking could be created) and runs some 130 ft in depth to a fir copse at the bottom. There are two adjoining brick-built outhouses and a timber/corrugated sheet shed, an external boiler, coal hole and oil tank.
The property is set on the edge of Wardour, an historic rural hamlet lying in the stunning Wardour Vale to the north of Donhead St Andrew, which itself has a thriving community based around the church and the excellent dining inn, The Forester. Close at hand is also Tisbury, offering a range of independent shops and amenities, including a sports/community centre, doctors’ and dental surgeries, garage, vets, a station with direct rail services to London (Waterloo 1hr 50 mins) and is home to Messums Wiltshire, a contemporary arts gallery.
Shaftesbury is some six miles away and has a good choice of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a good secondary school and cottage hospital, and is famous for the picturesque, steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill. The medieval cathedral city of Salisbury has more comprehensive shopping, arts & leisure facilities and a district hospital.
Directions From Tisbury, take the road running south out of the village, past the station and under the bridge. Turn first right and follow the lane for approx. 2 miles, past Wardour School. Continue and follow the lane round to the left and the property will be found on the left hand side.
Services Mains water & electricity, oil fired heating. The buyer will be required to install private drainage.
