A characterful chocolate box cottage located in a stunning situation in a sought after, rural village in South Wiltshire.
122 Upton is a stunning, detached, thatch cottage located in equally charming surroundings on the outskirts of the village of East Knoyle. Sitting on the edge of a large plot and built of clay brick under a thatch and clay tile roof the property benefits from not being listed. The Cottage has been tastefully updated over a number of years and provides sensible accommodation whilst still maintaining a large number of character features. Laid out over two floors, the ground floor comprises sitting room with inglenook fireplace, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom and entrance hall with stairs to the first floor. Three well-proportioned bedrooms can be found on the first floor along with the main family bathroom.
SITUATION
Upton lies to the north, and forms part of the parish, of the popular village of East Knoyle. The village claims to be the birthplace of Sir Christopher Wren and features many period properties, a church, pub and village shop. The historic Saxon town of Shaftesbury, famous for the Hovis advert, is a short distance away and offers most everyday amenities including Doctors surgery, a cottage hospital, supermarket and a vibrant High Street with well-known and independent shops and cafes. The area is well-known for the wide choice of local state and independent, primary and secondary schools and range of countryside pursuits and activities. Road communications are excellent with the A350 linking north and south and the A303 leading to London accessed nearby. Mainline railways stations to London Waterloo can be found at Gillingham and Tisbury.
OUTSIDE
The delightful gardens measure approximately 1/3 acre with a southerly facing aspect. The situation provides a backdrop of lovely countryside views and undulating scenery. The garden offers a large area of lawn bisected by a small winter borne stream with mature, well stocked flower, shrub and rose beds. A paved and slate seating area is ideal for enjoying the peace and sounds of nature. The garden is also planted with a variety of ornamental, fruit and willow trees and an area of woodland. Other features also include a large wooden deck with adjoining water feature, pond and a double garden shed with wood store. At the upper end of the garden is a gravel and partly fenced parking area (not owned but used by the property).
