    About this property

    • Broomhayes Farm is a substantial Country House situated quietly off Inmarsh Lane in an elevated position, overlooking its own paddock and adjoining farmland. The house offers well balanced and flexible family accommodation with great charm and character, sitting centrally within its grounds. All of the principal rooms capitalise on the views over the formal garden, lawns and across miles of incredibly beautiful rural countryside to the edge of Salisbury Plain.

      The property is entered through a large wooden front door with a pretty architrave above, opening into a large, bright entrance hall with stone floor, exposed beams and a balcony feature from the upstairs landing directly opposite the entrance. All the main rooms lead off the entrance hall and a door at the opposite end leads out to the south facing terrace and garden. To the left of the hall is the substantial kitchen/breakfast room, complete with wall and base units, a central island and Aga at one end and the breakfast area at the other looking out to the glorious countryside views.

      To the right of the hall is a large dining room comfortably seating 10 and also enjoying views over the garden. Of particular note is the elegant double drawing room, with high ceilings enjoying superb natural light from the six bay windows. The drawing room has wooden floors, a log burner and a door opening out onto the terrace and beautiful rural views. There is also a cosy study/snug with an open fireplace and window overlooking the garden.

      To complete the downstairs, to the immediate right of the front door is a utility room and separate boot room and WC. Leading past the utility room, is a large tucked away playroom that could also be used as a home office.

      On the first floor is the south facing principal bedroom, again showcasing the far-reaching views over the valley. This beautiful suite is complimented by a dressing room, en suite bathroom and study area. There are six further double bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom and a further family bathroom and separate shower room. All bedrooms show the diverse views of the house, be it the rural countryside, woodland, paddocks or the mature gardens.

      GARDENS AND GROUNDS

      The property is approached over a gravel drive leading through a small copse with a box hedge on either side to a concrete and gravel parking and turning area flanked to one side by a pleached hornbeam hedge. The formal gardens, with rose beds bordered by box and yew hedges lie to the south at the front of the house and are approached by a large flagstone terrace perfect for al-fresco dining. Beyond the formal garden is a further flat lawned area with magnificent views over the field owned by the property and across many miles of rural countryside beyond. Further lawned areas surround the property with a large amount of newly planted trees supplementing some magnificent mature specimens.

      The property sits within approx. 6.7 acres of land which consists of woodland, a babbling brook fed by a spring that leads to two ponds. There is a paddock and field, hard surface tennis court and a second entrance from the road providing access to the land owned by the property.

      There are a number of attractive outbuildings providing useful storage, namely a period Cow Byre and other storage areas surrounding an enclosed courtyard that could be converted into separate accommodation or office space, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent.
