Woodville Stour Row, Gillingham, SP8

A characterful period cottage with modern extension and lovely south facing garden with fine views to the rear in a peaceful rural location.

The Property
Tissana is an original stone and thatched detached cottage dating from the 1700s with a modern stone and weatherboard extension added in 2015 to now offer comfortable and characterful family accommodation. The sitting room in the original part of the house is a lovely dual aspect room at over 22' long with a wood burning stove in a brick fireplace, exposed beams and a door in the southern elevation out to the garden. The kitchen / dining room is at the back of the house, with a traditional range of wall mounted and floor standing units, solid wood worksurfaces, triple aspect and bi-fold doors to the garden. There is also a comfortable snug and a shower room. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, each with fine views to the south over the garden and to the hills beyond, a single bedroom and a family bathroom.

Outside
The property is approached from the lane on to a stone gravel drive with off-road parking for several cars. The front garden is laid to lawn and has a good sized timber garden office / studio. The lovely back garden is enclosed, south-facing with some mature trees and shrubs. Three steps lead up to a substantial timber summer house and there is also a garden shed.

Situation
Stour Row is a desirable village situated 3 miles south of the Saxon hilltop Town of Shaftesbury. Shaftesbury made famous by its cobbled street Gold Hill is a popular town offering a good range of high street and boutique shops, supermarkets, secondary schooling and recreational facilities. Further east is the cathedral city of Salisbury offering the usual facilities and opportunities of a regional centre.

The property has the benefit of a rural position combined with good access to the A30 and a mainline station at Gillingham (6 miles). There is an excellent network of footpaths and bridleways to the surrounding countryside and Duncliffe Hill which provides breathtaking views over the Blackmore Vale. Stour Provost Primary School is a few minutes away and the house is on the Gillingham School bus route. There are excellent junior, secondary and independent schools in the area. More comprehensive facilities are available at Yeovil, Salisbury and Bath.
