A truly charming and deceptively spacious late Edwardian home, combining period character with a striking contemporary rear extension. The property offers light, airy accommodation and a stunning long garden that gently borders a stream. Perfectly located in the heart of this sought-after Wylye Valley village, 72 High Street is a wonderful blend of heritage and modern design.
The home has been enhanced and extended to create flexible, modern living spaces while retaining its original character. At the front, a cosy reception room makes an ideal sitting room, complete with open fireplace. Beyond lies the impressive kitchen/dining/family room, part of the contemporary rear extension, where a wood burner provides a warm focal point for the comfortable everyday seating area. Beyond, this beautifully designed space features a comprehensively appointed kitchen and vast dining area that opens seamlessly onto the garden through wide bi-folding doors, creating the perfect indoor-outdoor flow. An adjoining modern bathroom is a welcome addition. Upstairs, there are three characterful bedrooms, two of which are well proportioned doubles The principal bedroom retains its Edwardian fireplace and has gorgeous views down the riverside rear garden. A stylish shower room serves the bedrooms.
Outside
The rear garden is a particular feature of the property. From the bi-fold doors, a paved terrace provides the ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps lead down to a large, mature lawn interspersed with fruit trees and bordered by colourful beds and herbaceous planting. Towards the rear lies a productive kitchen garden and a sizeable, insulated garden studio with power and broadband — the perfect home office or creative retreat. The garden concludes at a gentle stream, with open pastureland beyond, creating a truly idyllic rural outlook.
Situation
Codford is a thriving and picturesque Wylye Valley village, surrounded by unspoilt countryside and renowned for walking, riding, fishing and country pursuits. It offers a wide range of facilities including a shop, newsagent, post office, working theatre, garage and filling station, and is complemented by the superb farm shop, butchery and café in nearby Boyton. Codford also retains a primary school, toddler group, modern doctors’ surgery with dispensary, and veterinary practice. Warminster (7 miles) provides further facilities, while Bath and Salisbury offer extensive cultural, social and shopping amenities. The area is also well served by highly regarded state and independent schools including Warminster School, Dauntsey’s, Marlborough College, Port Regis and those in Salisbury and Bath. Communications are excellent, with the A303 and A36 just 4 miles away. Mainline rail services run from Warminster to London Waterloo, with additional services from Westbury (London Paddington) and Salisbury or Grateley (London Waterloo).
