Salisbury Road, Chilmark, Salisbury, SP3

A modern family home situated in a popular Nadder Valley village with extensive grounds and a large outbuilding/workspace.

PROPERTY
A detached late 20th century village residence built with bradstone external elevations under tiled roofs. The property offers spacious and versatile family accommodation and although well-presented and maintained, provides a new owner with the opportunity to put their own mark on it. Set back from the village road, what is not apparent to the casual observer is what lies beyond the house itself, namely a useful detached office/studio building and the wonderful extensive grounds which amount to around two acres.
The living accommodation on the ground floor comprises a reception hall, cloakroom and a triple aspect sitting room with a fireplace and access to a bright and light conservatory. There’s also a dining, study, fitted kitchen/breakfast room and a utility room on this level. Upstairs is a principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

OUTBUILDINGS
Beyond the house is a detached two-storey outbuilding with bradstone external elevations under a tiled roof. This is an excellent multi-purpose space with a shower room on the ground floor and which could be used as an office/work facility or gym whilst the upstairs would make a good studio, hobbies room or storage area.
Beyond the outbuilding is a detached double garage with twin up & over doors. There’s also a greenhouse.

OUTSIDE
An undoubted feature of the property are the delightful grounds extending to around 1.2 acres. They consist of areas of garden around the house with areas of lawn, flower and shrub borders, ornamental trees, rockeries and a former pond (no longer in use). The tarmacadam drive leads to an area of parking and onto two attractive paddocks which have a mix of native and ornamental trees and would be ideal for keeping ponies. Livestock or simply enjoyed as delightful amenity land.
Greenacres is situated in the attractive Nadder Valley village of Chilmark, renowned for its pretty stone cottages and houses. The village has a primary school, 13th Century church, reading room and cricket club. The larger village of Tisbury is 3 miles away and has a fine reputation for its independent shops, boutiques, eateries and amenities which include a sports centre, doctors, dentists, vets and railway station with direct services to London Waterloo. It is also the home of Messums West, a contemporary arts centre housed in an historic thatched barn.
Chilmark is located midway between the Saxon hilltop market town of Shaftesbury and the medieval cathedral city of Salisbury, both 12 miles away. The former has a good range of shops, supermarkets, a secondary school, cottage hospital and is famous for the picturesque, steeply cobbled street of Gold Hill whilst the latter has more comprehensive shopping, arts & leisure facilities and a district hospital. The area’s other principal towns including Andover, Bath, Blandford, Sherborne and Warminster are all linked via the local road network as is the South Coast. The West Country, London and the motorway network are accessible by the A303/M3. Many families are drawn to South Wiltshire by the choice and quality of the area’s state and private schools.
Set amidst the glorious undulating countryside of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, Chilmark is an excellent base from which to explore many miles of footpaths and bridleways and there are a variety of rural pursuits available including walking, riding, cycling and field sports. Racing is at Salisbury, Bath and Wincanton and golf at Tollard Royal, Warminster and Salisbury. There are several highly regarded dining pubs in the vicinity as well as many places of interest such as the Longleat Estate, Old Wardour Castle, Stourhead Gardens, Wilton House and the Fovant Badges.
