Cottage in Wiltshire

About this property

This property offers the best of both worlds: quiet countryside surroundings ideal for walking and a bustling village centre boasting great amenities and a mainline railway station.

Set on the fringes of Tisbury, this property has access to a great selection of artisan stores as well as those selling essential supplies. For lovers of history, the ruins of 14th century Wardour Castle are well worth a visit, as is the market town of Shaftesbury (6 miles), which boasts stunning views across the Blackmore Vale, the iconic Gold Hill, a town museum, and abbey ruins. Slightly further afield are Longleat House and Safari Park, The Stourhead Estate, and the city of Salisbury, home to a copy of the Magna Carta within its spectacular cathedral. A gently sloping, private driveway gives access to this detached cottage. A path leads around the side of the house to French doors, which open into the striking kitchen. This well equipped space has an AGA (kept hot throughout the year, care to be taken with children), electric hob and oven, microwave, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Leading on from here is the characterful lounge/diner. This beautiful room really shows the original character of the property as it has an inglenook fireplace with original bread ovens and a wood burner. There is a comfortable space to dine and a door leading into a cosy snug. A second wood burner can be found here as well as a Smart TV. Leading on from the snug is a useful utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer, plus a separate WC. Heading back into the kitchen you will find a staircase rising to the first floor. There are three lovely bedrooms, all decorated with the utmost care and attention. Choose between the pretty double bedroom or one of two king size bedrooms, the further of which has steps to a dressing room and an en suite shower room with WC. Completing the accommodation is a contemporary bathroom with a freestanding bath, separate walk in shower and his and hers sinks. Heading outside from either the lounge, utility room or kitchen will take you into the terraced cottage style garden. There is a secluded patio with garden furniture, a second raised area with sun loungers, and a lawn backed by pastureland. Care should be taken due to the changes of levels and steps within the garden. To the side of the property is a driveway with off road parking suitable for three cars.
