Located on the outskirts of Salisbury in a beautiful rural location, this 18th century detached double fronted home is set in 0.5 acres of grounds including a wonderful walled front garden. This includes a thatched, timber clad barn with planning permission to convert and a characterful cottage, offering nearly 800sqft of additional accommodation.

Formerly part of a long established Wiltshire Farm, Bridge House and its substantial adjacent barn were constructed in the 1700’s and formed part of the original farm yard. The property offers traditional country living in an attractive period property, laden with an array of classic features.

The main entrance for the house is via a small porch set to the side of the building, and accessed directly from the rear gated driveway. A well appointed country kitchen features a cream AGA and a feature lit well, set into the floor. To the side of the kitchen is a large pantry.
A further outside door leads from a hall to the rear lawn. A 21ft sitting room features high ceilings, a beautiful period fireplace and large sash windows facing south over the garden. Completing the ground floor is a substantial study/snug/dining room, with attractive period features that mirror those in the sitting room adjacent.

Upstairs is the principle bedroom and shower room. A spacious landing has much potential for use as a home office and provides access to two further double bedrooms and the family bathroom. There is a utility room and sun room set within a single storey extension which borders the front garden, this leads to an integral garage accessible from the front drive.

Located off the sitting room is a beautiful and well-maintained south-facing walled garden. Planted with trees and well-stocked flower beds, the garden is primarily laid with a well-manicured lawn. A terrace along the east wall several provides space for outdoor seating and al-fresco dining, with a sun room overlooking the private garden.

Accessed via the ground floor stairwell or entrance porch is the spacious rear garden, boarded by tall hedgerows that create an air of seclusion. At the top end of the garden is a number of fruit trees, with a gentle slope down to a large open lawn. It is felt that this garden provides great opportunity for a variety of purposes, which could be tailored to an incoming buyers own specification.
