Description

Home Farm is an attractive 19th century unlisted house set back from the lane, successfully extended in 2013 to create an additional sitting room with two additional bedrooms at first floor level. Home Farm is now a generously proportioned family home constructed predominantly of local stone under a pitched tiled roof, with sensibly configured accommodation that is light and bright. Other attributes worthy of mention include good ceiling heights throughout with shuttered windows and an open fireplace in the drawing room and a woodburner in the snug. Additionally, there is a large well fitted kitchen/dining room with stone work tops, central island and timber wood strip flooring. Home Farm has an efficient zero emissions boiler, solar panels, an intelligent hot water tank and electric vehicle charging point.

Home Farm is accessed off the lane onto a tarmac drive with a gravelled car parking area. At the front there is an area of lawn, walled on both sides with a flower and shrub border along the front façade. A terraced area to the rear of the property rises to a predominantly south facing garden, mainly laid to lawn, with well stocked flower and shrub borders along one boundary. A gate way leads to the paddock (about 1.5 acres), with a separate access directly off the lane. The paddock includes a large green metal barn, animal shelter, store and workshop.

Charlton lies on the Wiltshire/Dorset border, in the lee of Charlton Down on the northern edge of the Cranborne Chase. The village is predominantly made up of attractive period farmhouses and cottages and has a fine church, St John the Baptist. Nearby Ludwell has a renowned village shop, butcher and post office. The Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury has an excellent range of facilities, including delicatessen, cafes, restaurants, niche retailers and a boutique hotel, bank, three supermarkets, a small hospital, a library, heath centre, and an arts centre. A more comprehensive range of facilities can be found in the Cathedral city of Salisbury to the east, the Georgian Spa town of Bath to the north and Sherborne to the west. There are mainline railway stations at both Gillingham and Tisbury (London Waterloo) and A303 lies some 11 miles to the north giving access to the southwest country and London via the M3.
