4 bed bungalow for sale

Mill Lane, Stratford Sub Castle SP1

Sandon is a beautifully appointed detached bungalow with elegant, understated styling and enchanting gardens, set in a peaceful, semi-rural position on the northern edge of Salisbury. The property has been stylishly updated and enhanced and offers four bedrooms and two airy, comfortable reception rooms, with all the accommodation presented on a single, accessible level.

The property is approached from the generous drive from where double doors lead from the welcoming entrance hall to the spacious, L-shaped drawing room, which has wooden flooring, a Scandinavian-style logburner and an impressive full-height gable-end window with bi-folds opening to the delightful rear gardens.

Adjoining the drawing room, the dining room also opens to the gardens via bi-folds, as well as featuring skylights overhead, flooding the room with natural light. Rounding off the everyday living and entertaining space is the well-equipped kitchen, with its shaker-style units, range cooker, breakfast bar and French doors. The capacious neighbouring utility room provides further built-in storage and space for laundry appliances and catering prep.

The four double bedrooms are all situated on the ground level, including the large principal bedroom, which has a vaulted ceiling with skylights overhead, a door to the gardens plus a dressing room and an en suite bathroom with an over-bath shower. Two further bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes, while one has its own kitchenette, making it ideal for use as an annexe or a guest bedroom. The property also has a family bathroom and a wet-room shower room, both of which are fitted with stylish suites.

Outside the property is set back from Mill Lane where there is a paved driveway and well-stocked raised beds at the front, with the driveway providing parking space for several vehicles and access to the integrated double garage.

The gardens to the rear are south-facing and welcome plenty of sunlight throughout the day. They include a shaded patio area for al fresco dining, an area of lawn beyond, and border beds stocked with an array of vibrant and colourful flowering perennials. Two sheds provide garden storage space.
