Vicarage RoadTisbury, Salisbury, SP3 6HY

The delightful faded grandeur of The Chantry, with it's captivating gardens, lend this property a particular charm. The house offers huge potential to renovate and update, whilst still preserving the wealth of period detail it retains.

The entrance hall, with flagstone floor, offers direct access to all the rooms on the ground floor. A handsome drawing room, with high ceilings and wooden floor-boards, has an open fire with a stone hearth and working shutters. The dining room opposite, also with high-ceilings, wooden floor-boards, fireplace and shutters, benefits from wood panelling. From the far end of the hall, a pretty glazed arched door leads into the library. This is a particularly impressive and stylish double-height room, with a large curved window on the west elevation and a circular feature window. A half-glazed stable-door opens onto the charming sheltered courtyard.

The kitchen/breakfast room, with oil-fired Rayburn, has flagstone floors and fitted wooden cupboards. Completing the ground floor is a rear hall/boot room, with flagstone floor, leading from the kitchen out into the courtyard, and a cloakroom with quarry tiled floor. A spacious wine cellar sits below the dining room.

The first floor comprises a principal bedroom of capacious proportions, with a fireplace, wooden floor-boards and far-reaching views, over the roof-tops of Tisbury, to the countryside beyond. It also has an en suite bathroom.

The second bedroom, of equal proportions, has a grand fireplace. A family shower room completes this floor. The second flight of stairs leads up to a landing, from which one can access two double attic bedrooms of reasonable proportions and benefitting from long views over the village and beyond.

Outside - Directly behind the house nestles a sheltered and utterly private cobbled stone courtyard with a wisteria covered loggia. Accessible from this courtyard are two traditional garden stores and a gardener's loo.

Large double gates open from the road onto the gravel driveway, leading to parking for several cars in front of the double garage. An ornate wrought-iron gate takes you through to the enchanting gardens. Part-walled and laid primarily to lawn, stone pathways bordered with lavender, yew and box topiary take you through to a stone well/pond with a fountain, sheltered seating areas and through to a garden orangery. Mature trees offer dappled shade.
