Queensberry Road, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP1

A particularly spacious 1930’s detached family home on a large quarter of an acre plot in an elevated position with superb views.


Richmond House is a 1930’s 6 bedroom detached family property of approximately 2,500 sq ft in a quiet and elevated area north of the city. The property benefits from superb views to the west and despite being so close to the city, has a particular feel of being private accessed up a sloped tarmac drive. The property boasts spacious accommodation on both ground and first floors and although has been well maintained, would benefit from cosmetic modernisation. The property comprises a large entrance porch with ample space for coats and boots and door leading to an inner hall with stairs to the first floor and storage below. There is a large sitting room with brick fireplace and bay window, a further snug/office with bay window and built-in bookshelves. There is a further family room which in turn leads on to the dining room creating one large room with doors leading to the garden and in turn leading on to the kitchen. The kitchen/breakfast room has a good selection of built-in units, integrated oven and microwave, electric hob, dishwasher and sink. There is a gas fired Aga and ample space for a breakfast table. On the first floor there are 6 bedrooms, bedrooms 1-4 are all large doubles, bedrooms 1 and 2 have particularly lovely outlooks over Salisbury, whilst bedrooms 5 and 6 are singles, both with built-in wardrobe space. There is a bathroom with bath and shower over, wash hand basin, separate cloakroom and a further shower room. Every aspect of the accommodation is spacious and would ideally suit a large family or due to the number of rooms someone working from home or multi-generational living. The property has double glazing and has gas fired central heating. Externally the property has a quarter acre plot with good off road parking, double garage, a number of external seating areas including patio, a large lawn and an excellent variety of mature shrub and flower borders.
