5 bedroom detached house

A very well presented 5 bedroom detached property set in just under half an acre with well proportioned accommodation over 3 floors.

A quite superb and unique 5 bedroom family house which has been updated extensively over the years with the recent installation of a contemporary open plan kitchen with views over the south facing gardens and doors opening onto the same. The kitchen has been fitted with top end integrated NEFF appliances, including dual ‘slide and hide’ ovens and Quooker tap. The white quartz worktop compliments the darker kitchen units very well. The lounge has a large bay window aspect over the rear garden with a stone surround and fitted woodburner. The snug/morning room again has a pleasant aspect and there is a separate utility room. There are two further reception rooms to the front which could have a number of uses as family rooms or study/office. On the first floor the master bedroom has generous proportions and fitted wardrobes together with a large en-suite bathroom, with 4 further bedrooms, bedroom 5 having the benefit of an en-suite shower room and there is a further large family bathroom with shower cubicle. The second floor (approx. 700 sq ft), is currently divided into a store room and craft/hobbies room. It could however be returned to a single room, perhaps as an office space. Alternatively, with some minor changes, it could be converted into a sixth bedroom.

The property is pleasantly situated directly opposite woodland walks, on the edge of the popular village of Alderbury, where there are good local facilities which include a convenience store, post office, bowling green, tennis courts, recreation ground, cosy country pub, locally sourced milk machine and thriving primary school. Alderbury is an active community which is well served by the recently upgraded village hall and there are also numerous clubs and societies. The A36 is nearby which gives access to the M27 which leads to Southampton and links to Winchester and the M3 to London. The Cathedral city of Salisbury is approximately 3 miles away where there are good educational, recreational, leisure and shopping facilities which combine with a twice weekly market in addition to a mainline railway station (Waterloo 90 minutes)

Outside there is parking to the front of the property which leads to the double garage which has an up and over door with power connected. There is a side access leading through to the rear garden. The rear gardens are a particular feature with the overall plot size being just short of half an acre. There is an area of patio with a range of built-in outside units suitable for creating a barbecue area. An area of timber decking then leads down to the garden which has an expanse of lawn and some mature trees and borders. There are number of outside sheds and of particular note is the Shepherd’s hut which has a fitted woodburner. A pair of wrought iron gates lead through to an additional area of land and the vendors have created a very nice partially wooded area, an allotment garden and covered pergola suitable for ‘al fresco’ dining and with a brick lined firepit and a timber outside chemical loo which is a great area for parties and entertaining throughout the year.
