High Street, Tilshead

We are delighted to bring Hoopers Farmhouse to the market which has been within the same ownership since it was acquired in 1978. This lovely late 17th century  Grade II thatched cottage is constructed of chalk and flint with limestone quoins and flint footings and is centrally located within the rural Wiltshire village of Tilshead.   
 
Not only visually stunning with its chocolate box characteristics but, look internally, and you will be presented with wealth period features including a truly impressive inglenook fireplace, two further working fireplaces with log burners, numerous beams and timbers and natural stone floors.  There is also a vast loft space, with excellent storage.
 
Hoopers Farmhouse offers both flexible and spacious accommodation with two staircases; the current owner lives within one half of the property and successfully runs the other half as a cottage holiday let which we believe from the owner provides a generous income.  Shaded on the Floor Plan is the area of the property which is utilised as a holiday let.  
 
The ground floor comprises of a large main dual aspect living room, a spacious dining room and a further open plan reception room/living room which is currently in use as part of the holiday let. Off the dining area is a substantial single storey (single skin) kitchen extension with adjoining utility giving access to both areas of the garden.  Overall, there are three generous bedrooms, a large family bathroom and an en suite bathroom located on the first floor.
 
To the front of the cottage is a walled garden with lawn, an attractive duck pond, flower beds, shrub beds and sweeping gravelled drive with excellent parking. There are gates to one side giving access to additional parking and a large courtyard/kitchen garden. The main garden is laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees.
 
Hoopers Farmhouse is a most attractive property located in a popular village with wonderful character which should be viewed to appreciate its true potential.
