Located in a highly sought after location on a private road, this handsome red brick, detached house, dating back to the 1890's. It offers well appointed accommodation throughout, tastefully combining period character with a stylish and contemporary finish.
The ground floor provides five reception rooms providing versatile, flexible living. The welcoming entrance hall has the original tiled floor whilst the drawing room has wooden flooring, a period fireplace with a woodburning stove and a large sash bay window, which welcomes an abundance of natural light. The spacious dining room also has a bay window, while further reception rooms include the useful home study and the playroom which opens onto the rear garden. Also opening to the rear is the family room and dining area, which has tiled flooring and two sets of bi-folding doors. It adjoins the kitchen in a semi open-plan layout, with the kitchen featuring modern units in white, as well as integrated appliances and underfloor heating.
The original staircase leads to the first-floor landing where a door opens to a sunny, south facing balcony at the front of the house. There are four double bedrooms on the first floor, including the principal bedroom, which has an en suite bathroom with an over-bath shower. The three additional first-floor bedrooms all include en suite shower rooms, while further up on the second floor there are two more double bedrooms, both of which are also en suite.
The majority of the garden lies to the rear of the property and mainly comprises lawn, enclosed by mature shrubs, trees and hedging. Beyond the rear garden is a large area of gravelled parking and turning along with a large detached double garage and workshop, with electric power and light, accessed from Park Lane by way of a driveway. The current owners have had plans drawn up to landscape the rear garden to increase the size of lawn, with further details available upon request. To the front of the property there is a small area of lawn and a paved path leading to the front door.
The property is situated in a highly sought-after location, on a private road, overlooking Victoria Park, less than a mile from Salisbury city centre. There is also a convenience store close by for day to day items. With its historic centre and famous cathedral, Salisbury is a delightful city. There is a superb choice of shopping and leisure facilities, plus a fine selection of pubs, cafés and restaurants. The area has several outstanding primary schools, and is well sited to reach both independent and state schools including Bishops Wordsworth and South Wilts Grammar Schools (the house lies within the catchment area for both, with South Wilts situated on the adjacent Stratford Road), Salisbury Cathedral School, Chafyn Grove, Leehurst Swan and Godolphin School. Communication links into the city are good and Salisbury train station offers direct links to London Waterloo, taking approximately 90 minutes. The M27 (junction 2) is 16 miles away. There are airports at Bournemouth and Southampton.
