Property description
A charming refurbished Listed period cottage situated in a sought after conservation village with character features and beautifully presented accommodation.
Property A pretty Grade II Listed, double fronted terraced cottage with mellow brick external elevations to the front under a clay tiled roof and is thought to have originally been a pair of traditional cottages dating from the 17th Century and rebuilt in the late 18th Century. In recent years the property has been extensively and sympathetically refurbished and modernised with great care taken with the alterations to retain the essence of the period character.
Fitted to an exceptionally high standard, this is a charming and welcoming home which would be ideal for use either as a primary residence or weekend retreat with its light, airy and beautifully presented accommodation. As well as allowing for flexibility as to how this can be enjoyed, it also offers the potential to be expanded further (subject to the necessary consents) by converting the voluminous loft space to provide additional bedrooms, a studio or work facility.
The ground floor comprises of a lovely sitting room and dining room, both of which have inglenook fireplaces, the former also with a Villager woodburning stove. The very well fitted kitchen/breakfast room has a generous range of units and worksurfaces and is equipped with a Belling electric cooker and Tecnik dishwasher. There is also a rear hall, cloakroom and storage area. Upstairs is a galleried landing, two pretty double bedrooms, a good 3rd bedroom with access to a small store room and a smartly appointed bathroom.
Outside Beyond the back door is a small paved sitting area giving access to the well maintained communal drive leading to a large graveled parking area with two designated spaces for 10 High Street, a communal drying and bin store area and onto the small but delightful privately owned, southeasterly facing garden with lawn, flowers and shrubs.
Situation The property is situated in the attractive broad, tree lined High Street in the ever sought after and thriving conservation village of Hindon with its mix of old brick and Chilmark stone houses and cottages. The excellent local facilities include a community run shop/post office, primary school, doctor’s surgery, church, playground and two well-known dining pubs; The Lamb and The Angel.
Hindon is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in West Wiltshire close to its borders with Dorset and Somerset. Despite its lovely rural setting on the edge of the Nadder Valley, the village is not isolated and has good road links to the main towns in the area including Salisbury, Shaftesbury, Bath, Blandford, Warminster, Wincanton and Yeovil as well as to the South Coast. The nearby A303 gives convenient access to London, the West Country and motorway network. There is a mainline rail service from the neighbouring village of Tisbury (3.5 miles away) to London (Waterloo) and the nearest regional airports are at Bournemouth and Bristol.
Hindon is an excellent base for several highly respected schools in both the state and private sectors. The village is surrounded by idyllic undulating countryside ideal for a variety of rural pursuits including walking, riding and cycling. Racing is at Salisbury, Bath and Wincanton with golf at Tollard Royal, Sherborne and Salisbury. There are several famous visitor attractions nearby such as the National Trust gardens at Stourhead, the stately home and safari park at Longleat and the World Heritage prehistoric site at Stonehenge.
