Detached house for sale in Pitton, Salisbury SP5

A truly beautiful, Grade II listed period home of character and space which has the added benefit of several outbuildings, set within established grounds of circa a third of an acre in a superb village position.

The original home dates back to circa 15th Century with 18th Century additions and still boasts many original features such as exposed beams and Inglenook fireplaces, amongst numerous other hallmarks of the original cottage. The current owners have beautifully refurbished and enhanced this pretty home creating the wonderfully flexible, deceptively spacious home you find today.

The accommodation amounts to circa 1900sq. Ft. And is set over two floors. There is a stunning formal sitting room with a beautiful inglenook fireplace, wood panelling and French doors opening to the garden. There is a fully fitted Neptune kitchen/breakfast room with ample attractive units under granite work surfaces. The kitchen has an adjoining pantry and a useful utility/boot room with plenty of built in storage. The formal dining room is to the front and features a second Inglenook fireplace with bread oven. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a generous cloakroom.

Upstairs on the first floor are four bedrooms, all of which are a generous size. The master bedroom has several built-in wardrobes and an en-suite cloakroom whilst the remaining bedrooms are serviced by the modern family bathroom.

Outside

The home is perfectly positioned to the front of its plot. The front elevation is that of a quintessential thatch cottage with white washed walls draped in abundant climbing roses. The decorative front garden is bountifully planted, set behind a rose hedge and picket fence.

The gated courtyard is found to the rear, accessed over an adjoining track. This provides parking for multiple vehicles and gives access to the single open car barn that forms part of the detached barn.

The thatched barn itself plays host to a workshop with garden WC and disused shower. The barn as a whole provides excellent storage but offers a host of opportunities for the future owners, subject to usual consents. The tithe granary, again currently used as a garden store, offers scope for imagination, also subject to consent.

The grounds extend to circa 0.3 of an acre and are landscaped into several 'garden rooms'. There is a wonderful kitchen garden, complete with raised vegetable beds, fruit cages and a greenhouse. Below is the pretty cottage garden, bursting with colourful floral beds. Beyond is the formal garden; a paved terrace adjoins the home, ideal for outdoor entertaining and dining. The formal lawn is flanked by herbaceous borders and there is an ornamental pond. The established gardens boast a sunny southerly aspect and offer an excellent degree of privacy.
