This charming detached period cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Attached to the main residence is a versatile barn/workshop, providing additional space that can be transformed according to your vision. The property features a south-west facing garden, perfect for those looking to create an outdoor sanctuary.
While the cottage is currently in need of modernisation, its layout offers significant potential for enhancement. Recent planning permission has been granted (Wiltshire planning PL/2023/10723) for the demolition of the existing structure, allowing for the construction of a new, larger cottage-style home. The proposed design includes an inviting ground floor comprising a spacious reception hall with cloakroom, a dual-aspect living room, an open-plan kitchen/dining area suitable for contemporary family living, a dedicated study, and a generous utility/boot room. The first floor would accommodate a principal bedroom along with two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Located in the village of Winterslow, this property benefits from access to essential amenities including local shops, public houses, a Post Office, healthcare facilities, and recreational options such as public tennis courts. Nearby Salisbury, approximately eight miles away, offers a wider range of shopping and leisure facilities along with excellent educational institutions—both state and private—including grammar schools. For commuters, Salisbury provides mainline rail services to Waterloo, making it an attractive location for those working in London or seeking access to the West Country via the A343/A303.
Inside the cottage, you will find practical spaces such as an entrance porch leading into the reception hall with storage options. The living room boasts a dual aspect and an open fireplace that adds character to the space. The kitchen/dining area is equipped with essential appliances and features views towards farmland through its front-facing window.
The two large double bedrooms upstairs both enjoy picturesque views from their windows. Outside, the gently sloping garden wraps around the rear and side of the cottage and is bordered by fencing and hedges. The attached barn not only enhances the property's charm but also represents additional investment potential—ideal for conversion or expansion.
With mains water, electricity, and drainage already connected—and ample scope for enhancing both livability and value—this property is well-suited for buyers looking to invest in their future home or capitalize on its development potential.
