Property description

Occupying a corner plot on the entrance to a highly desirable residential close, 1 Ashlands is a substantial detached family home. The property was constructed in the late 1970s and has been occupied by the current family since about 1983. The house offers excellent accommodation, the entrance hall is wide and welcoming with a vaulted galleried landing above. The living room extends the depth of the house with a working fireplace and there is a separate dining room. The kitchen is a large L shape room with the original cupboards and an adjoining utility room which in turn leads through to a huge integral double garage; the bathrooms and cloakroom have their original fittings and would clearly benefit from updating and modernising. The windows, although replaced, are single glazed and therefore double glazing should be a consideration. Central heating is provided by a brand new (just installed) oil fired boiler to a water filled radiator system.

The first floor gallery, overlooking the reception hall, offers access to a superb master bedroom with walk-through wardrobes/dressing area and a generous ensuite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms of varying sizes and a family bathroom.

The house offers great potential both for retaining the existing footprint and
modernising or consideration should be given to converting the integral double garage in to a reception hall, replacing the 1980's conservatory with a modern alternative, perhaps a garden room, and providing a new double garage on the side of the property.

The plot is of a particularly good size although a large percentage is currently open plan. The formal garden area is laid to lawn with mature shrubs and flower beds and enclosed by a specimen hedge. The garden could be enlarged by incorporating some of the open area which is mainly to the right hand side of the property as you look at it.

In conclusion an excellent family home offering immense potential located in a very popular village, on the north eastern edge of Salisbury.

The semi rural settlement of Ford is located a short distance from Salisbury on the north eastern edge and is easily accessible from the A30, A338 and the A345.
