Longstreet, Enford, SN9

Fine & Country are delighted to present Wayside, a beautifully presented, three bedroom, detached cottage with off street parking and 0.25 acres of private gardens.

Accommodation Summary:

Wayside is a quaint, Grade II listed cottage believed to date back to the early 19th Century. Beautifully presented throughout, the property has been sympathetically renovated by the current owners to offer light and versatile accommodation over two floors.

The cottage is quietly situated in the village of Enford, a picturesque and desirable village comprising a range of individual houses in the heart of the Pewsey Vale. The village boasts an award-winning, community-owned public house and church, whilst nearby Netheravon has a shop, post office, church and primary school. The market towns of Marlborough and Devizes have a good range of shops and Salisbury has extensive cultural and commercial amenities.

Ground Floor:

The older part of the cottage is full of character including a large inglenook fireplace with a log burner and an old bread oven. The two principal reception rooms are linked together via a striking, open beam divider and feature beautifully restored exposed beams, brickwork and oak flooring.

At the rear of the property, the fitted kitchen has been refitted to offer a range of useful cupboard space, an integrated dishwasher, Belfast sink, Belling range oven and space for a tall Fridge/Freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer.

Leading from the kitchen, the rear boot room has ample space for fitted storage, further plumbing and space for white goods and direct access out onto the rear gardens.

Accessed externally and completing the ground floor accommodation, the original garage has been converted into an additional reception room which could also be used as a bedroom or office space.

First Floor:

The first floor offers two spacious double bedrooms, a further single bedroom and the recently fitted four-piece bathroom suite. The principal and main guest bedrooms both have generous built-in storage cupboards and lovely views to the front aspect over Longstreet, towards the church and surrounding countryside. The third bedroom could also be used as a useful second office space if required.

Outside:

The grounds at Wayside have been well-maintained and offer a peaceful and private outdoor setting whilst making the most of the surrounding views over the village and countryside. The majority of the 0.25 acre gardens are south facing and the different areas allow for multiple uses for all the family to enjoy. The main area enjoys the sun throughout the day and into the evening. There are secluded seating areas, ideal for outdoor entertaining, level lawns and a lovely variety of fruit trees.

To the side of the property, there is off-street driveway parking for two cars. Nearby, additional parking could be available through the parish council.
