Detached house for sale in Salisbury SP2, 6 Bedroom

A fine detached, character home believed to date to circa 1907. Woodgrange House is a lovely example of an arts and crafts home of this era and situated in a highly desirable part of Salisbury with easy access both on foot and by car into the city centre. The house has a wonderful feeling of space and privacy whilst not being isolated from neighbours and even enjoys views towards Salisbury Cathedral Spire. The house has been lovingly restored by the current owners over the last ten years and has both new additions as well as refurbishments of existing features. There is a super flow to the accommodation on the ground floor with the kitchen/breakfast room being at the heart of the house and overlooking the gardens, with scope for further improvement already pre-approved under planning application 14/03700/ful. The garden room and newly added orangery provide fabulous space for formal and informal entertaining and can be flexible in their use and open directly on to the stunning gardens. The orangery has its own separate decked terrace. The sitting room enjoys a double aspect and wonderful natural light and has a log burner for those cold winter evenings making it a wonderfully cosy space when needed. A practical utility/boot room provides wonderful space for ‘muddy’ children and pets when returning home and is easily accessed via a separate entrance making it unnecessary to walk through the rest of the house first. A pretty arts and crafts style staircase leads to the first floor which has a wonderful master bedroom suite with bathroom and dressing room. There are a further four/five bedrooms on the first and second floor with the ability to adapt the layout to suit the incoming purchaser as plumbing is already in situ on the second floor in the snug.

Situation
The property is situated in highly desirable Bouverie Avenue in Harnham, the prestigious area on the southern side of the Cathedral city of Salisbury. A variety of regionally recognised
retail, cultural and educational establishments are within easy reach as well as a range of award winning restaurants, bars and a lively twice weekly market. The property is in a prime position
to reach both Bishop & South Wilts Grammar Schools, and Salisbury Cathedral School, Chafyn Grove, Leehurst Swan, Godolphin School and Preparatory School. Salisbury train
station is nearby and offers direct links to London Waterloo in 83 minutes and the A303 provides access to the southwest and to London via the M3.

Outside
The gardens at Woodgrange House have been wonderfully created and maintained by the present owners and are a huge asset to this wonderful home. The house is approached by a recently completed gravel driveway offering in and out access via two gates. Mature planting to the front of the property screens the house well from the road making it feel very private. There is an outbuilding to the side of the drive as you approach the house which is currently used as a family media/games room with a separate room making an ideal ‘work from home’ office. Much like the layout of the house, the outbuilding could work for a variety of uses to suit one’s own needs. There is a wooden garage/store room with a log store to the side situated behind the outbuilding. The gardens are gated from the driveway making them secure for families and pets. The garden has been divided into several sections all accessed off the level lawn to the centre. The borders are well stocked with an array of herbaceous plants and shrubs. There are several different fruit trees, vines and climbing plants all which add to the oasis feel of the gardens. The woodland to the rear of the gardens again supports that country in the city feel.
