Witt Road, Winterslow, Salisbury

Here we have Applewood Cottage, a lovely detached period cottage located on the very edge of the hugely popular Wiltshire village of Winterslow. The cottage is within a short level walk of Bentley Wood; an ancient woodland of about 1,700-1,800 acres and a Site of Special Scientific Interest renowned for butterflies and moths, extensive walking trails, and wildlife.

The original cottage is believed to date from around the mid 1600's and is of cob construction under a thatched roof. The modern two storey (traditional) rear extension was added in 2017/2018 as part of a full renovation programme. Offered for sale in excellent order, the accommodation is light and airy with full double glazing and LPG central heating, underfloor heating on the ground floor and radiators upstairs.

The ground floor living space is entirely open plan with three defined areas: sitting room, dining room with exposed brick fireplace with inset LPG gas stove and a stylish contemporary kitchen. In addition, there is a generous entrance lobby with cloakroom and a good size utility room off the kitchen. The first floor offers three bedrooms and a family bathroom off a spacious landing.

Applewood Cottage is located towards the end of the lane with open countryside views. There is a private drive with off road parking for at least three vehicles. The garden, which is accessed from the kitchen, is of a good size, laid primarily to lawn and south west facing. There is a large patio/terrace area off the kitchen and an impressive outbuilding/garden office with power and light.
