Description
A linked period single storey cottage constructed of rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof which has been totally restored in recent years to an excellent and sympathetic standard featuring sandstone flooring, solid oak framework and vaulted ceilings. The cottage was originally an Almshouse, built by John Kent, Squire of Boscombe, in 1707 (John Kent’s grave can be found in the transept of the nearby church of St Andrew’s). On the outside wall of the cottage is an inscription on slate: “Dei doman. et. deo solas quas dederis semper habebis opes 1708”, which translates as “It is God’s gift and whatever wealth (or riches) you give to him, you will always have”.
The property is situated in Boscombe Village, which has a Conservation area and is some seven miles north of the cathedral city of Salisbury. There is a public house and Grade I listed church, and the neighbouring village of Porton (about 1.5 miles away) has a newsagent and Post Office/store for everyday needs. The A303 is close at hand allowing convenient access to London and the West Country, and there is a railway station in the nearby village of Grateley (approximately 10 minutes’ drive away).
