A beautiful two bedroom, thatched cottage in the centre of one of Wiltshire's finest villages.
Appleyard Cottage is an idyllic and stylish semi-detached home that seamlessly blends rural charm with modern comforts. Nestled in the heart of Donhead St. Mary, adjacent to the historic Church of St. Mary and set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this beautifully presented cottage has been extensively refurbished in recent years.
The front door opens into a welcoming porch with storage space, leading into a well-proportioned kitchen/dining room. This charming space features terracotta tiled flooring, a Belfast sink, ample storage, and room for a range cooker or Aga. A separate scullery/utility room overlooks the garden, providing additional space for a sink, washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, and a large fridge/freezer, along with an extra induction hob for large-scale entertaining. The delightful sitting room, with two large windows framing views of the garden, is perfect for relaxing and entertaining. A striking inglenook fireplace, fitted
with a wood-burning stove, serves as the focal point of the room.
Upstairs, a spacious landing connects two beautifully proportioned double bedrooms, both featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and deep window sills that enhance the cottage’s bright and inviting atmosphere. The family bathroom is tastefully appointed with a large bath and shower, a washbasin with tiled splashbacks, and a WC.
Outside
The cottage enjoys a private, south-facing garden to the front and side, framed by mature hedgerows and well-stocked flower beds. A lawned area and paved terrace provide ideal spaces for outdoor dining, while a separate, spacious patio offers a wonderfully private suntrap, enclosed by a beautiful period stone wall. A useful garden shed provides additional storage.
