An exceptionally spacious Grade II-listed, four-bedroom house. This contemporary conversion offers over 5,000 sq ft of accommodation.
An exceptionally spacious Grade II listed four bedroom house. This comprehensive contemporary conversion, offering over 5,000 sq ft of light-filled living space, seamlessly combines original historic architecture with modern innovative design. On approach, the charming unassuming Georgian facade gives access to voluminous living space, with a series of vaulted ceilings and arranged around a south facing wall-enclosed garden and terrace at the rear. The house is situated at the northern end of St Ann Street, which is one of the most sought after streets in Salisbury, within a short walk to local shopping, leisure and dining opportunities of the city centre and close to idyllic country walks in the New Forest and surrounding villages.
The house has been planned to maximize the scope for flexible entertaining and family living, with a drawing room of over 40ft in length and broad oak steps up to a sitting/dining room, with vaulted ceiling and bi-fold doors, along the width of one wall, leading onto the south-facing terrace and lawns. The bespoke kitchen, handmade by the renowned John Lewis of Hungerford, includes Fisher and Paykel integrated appliances, porcelain floor tiles, a walk-in larder and glass double doors onto the sheltered sunken terrace. Accessed from the elegant entrance hall, the cinema/media room has a kitchenette and adjacent shower room, along with a glazed door onto a sheltered courtyard area. This space could also work as a separate self-contained living space.
Alongside the stylish reception spaces are the more practical elements of modern living, including a boot room and downstairs cloakroom, a laundry and a study.
Upstairs, the imposing principal bedroom suite occupies the southern wing of the property and includes a bedroom in excess of 26 ft in length, with wood-burning stove and vaulted ceilings. The en suite bathroom has a free-standing double-ended roll top bath, rain shower and double sinks. The dressing room has fitted shelving, drawers and hanging space.
Via the galleried landing, there are three further double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room. The family bathroom has a rain shower and a free-standing roll top slipper bath.
The house boasts oak floorboards throughout and an extensive integrated Smart system controlling security, lighting, windows, blinds and sound/media system.
The south-facing walled garden, largely laid to lawn with newly planted specimen trees, has two areas of terrace and raised beds for vegetables and herbs. There is also convenient side-access from St Ann Street through to the garden.

The drawing room, kitchen and sitting rooms are what really makes the house for me. The space that it offers is exceptional, especially when you consider how close to the station and city centre you are. It's a real rarity and one not to be missed.
