4 bed cottage for sale

Upper Woodford, Salisbury SP4

A four bedroom cottage with river views, set in a popular village location to the north of Salisbury

Crockers Cottage was originally a smaller cottage and is thought to date from the late 1800s. The house is not listed and has been carefully extended in 2004 and meticulously renovated by the owners, who have lived here since 1996.

Parking for the cottage is along the village lane, with access to the house via a side gate to the front door.

Opening into the open kitchen/dining room, the house is light and brighter, thanks largely to the new hardwood windows and doors installed in 2023. The kitchen has a Rangemaster oven and hob, with bespoke hardwood hand built shaker style wall and base units with a granite worktop. A large, matching, free-standing dresser is included in the sale. The utility room beyond has plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer and is where the oil fired boiler is situated. The sitting room faces east, with an exposed brick feature wall, log-burner and views over the river and water meadow beyond.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms (one ensuite) and a family bathroom.

The principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room, vaulted ceiling and French doors out to a west-facing terrace. Bedroom 2 has beautiful views and a charming old fireplace. Bedroom 3 has been extended and provides for an additional study area, or potentially could be used as a further living room. Bedroom 4 lies next to the family bathroom.

In total, the property extends to about 0.38 acre, with gardens to the rear offering the most fantastic far-reaching views across the river and water meadows beyond. Steps lead up from the side of the house to the elevated rear garden.

The owners’ have lived here with young children and made sure that there were safe, level areas of garden for them to play in.

Lawns have been carefully terraced to maximise the areas of level garden for play, with a further BBQ patio, large garden shed and wild area for bonfires and composting.
