Property description
Located within the hugely popular semi rural village of Ford, which lies to the north of the cathedral city of Salisbury, the property is a detached modern bungalow, edged in blue on the plan, with approximately 3.55 acres (1.44 hectares), shaded green on the plan.
The property offers three bedroom accommodation which is fully double glazed and centrally heated via an oil fired boiler to radiators. There is a generous, welcoming reception hall leading to a light and airy open plan living room (with open fireplace) and dining room with excellent views across the adjoining land and open countryside. In addition there is a small uPVC double glazed conservatory/garden room off the sitting room and a separate uPVC
utility/rear porch off the kitchen.
To the front and side of the bungalow is a drive with generous parking and a detached garage with electric up and over door. The gardens are enclosed on two sides, extremely well maintained and offer direct access to the adjoining land. Potential exists to further improve the bungalow, subject to obtaining the relevant planning consents, with the addition of a rear, and possibly side, extension to create a super family home.
The land, amounting to 3.55 acres (1.44 hectares) is in addition to the formal garden and is well defined with post and rail and post and wire fencing. There is a five bar gated access into the land from the village road on the southern boundary.
