Stockton, Warminster, BA12

Having been significantly updated and extended in recent years, this delightful Grade II listed cottage offers its next family immaculately presented and deceptively spacious accommodation throughout.

Upon entering the cottage the light and space is immediately apparent. The characterful accommodation has been greatly enhanced by the recent ground floor extension. The beautiful open plan kitchen/dining/family room consists of a farmhouse style kitchen area, which has been fitted with attractive cabinetry and range style oven and stove. The generous triple aspect dining/family room is flooded with natural light and has a warming fireplace with a two-way log-burning stove (not in use). To the front is the gorgeous formal reception room also with a fireplace. The rear extension houses the substantial vaulted bedroom that has French doors leading to a westerly facing rear terrace. The extension is designed to be versatile in its use, so could be used as an additional reception room. The ground floor is completed by a wetroom/cloakroom and a useful rear lobby. The first floor accommodation is arranged around the central stairwell and consists of two generous double bedrooms, both dual aspect and boast views across the gardens or the pretty village. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed and services the bedrooms.

Outside

The gardens are a particular feature of this wonderful village home. The property itself is situated to the front of its plot with a large, recently renewed brick paved driveway providing parking for several vehicles and giving access to the detached garage/barn. The garden is mainly laid to mature lawn with glorious open aspect views across neighbouring paddocks and countryside beyond. The rolling lawn is flanked with sculpted floral and herbaceous borders. There is a superb kitchen garden area and ample space for chickens. There are then two paved terraces that boast a wealth of privacy and enjoy a southerly aspect, ideal for outdoor entertaining and dining.

There are a range of outbuildings including a timber built studio/office/hobbies room, discreetly positioned in the southerly corner of the grounds. In addition, there are several useful garden stores and a large log/machine store. The garage/barn offers scope for further conversion, subject to usual consents.

Situation

Teapot Cottage is pleasantly situated close to the centre of Stockton, a pretty village set in the heart of the picturesque Wylye Valley. The village has a church and a pub and there is an excellent farm shop in the nearby village of Boyton. A mile to the east is the larger village of Wylye which also has a pub along with a shop and post office and across the valley in the larger village of Codford there is an excellent range of local services including a village stores and post office, a doctor's surgery and a very popular village school. Additionally there is a range of superb prep, private and grammar schools for boys and girls in Salisbury and Warminster. Stockton is also very well placed for those who travel or commute to work outside the area on a regular basis. The A303/M3 is only five minutes away bringing London and the business centres along the M3 and M25 corridors within easy reach. There are fast regular trains to London Waterloo from Salisbury and Paddington from Warminster.
