WoodmintonBowerchalke, Salisbury, SP5 5DD

Woodminton Farmhouse lies within a Conservation Area, in a peaceful position on the edge of the hamlet of Woodminton. Located at the end of a private farm track, the original part of the house is thought to date back to about 1860, constructed of brick and flint under a slate roof. The house is not listed. The owners undertook a major program of works in 2007, including re-wiring, plumbing and an extension to the rear.

Formerly part of a larger farm holding, the farmhouse stands well within its grounds of about 0.8 acre, with a gravelled driveway sweeping past the pond to a parking area at the front of the house.

This is a great family house, well suited to family living with a range of excellent rooms across the ground floor. The proportions are superb, with the porch leading into the central staircase hall from which the drawing room and sitting room are accessed. The drawing room is particularly fine, with dual aspect views and a central fireplace with log-burner. The sitting room is also dual aspect, with pine shutters and a log-burner in an original inglenook fireplace. The panelled dining room has a lovely bay window and links to the large kitchen/breakfast room. Whilst in the newer part of the building, this is a classic farmhouse-style kitchen, dual aspect, with four oven electric Aga, central island, integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The Belfast sink sits below a window overlooking the raised rear garden. The inner hall links the front and back of the house. There is a study, WC and the cellar is accessed from here too. The substantial utility/boot room at the rear of the house has floor and wall mounted units with a sink and plumbing for washing facilities.

The first floor has a lovely galleried landing from which all bedrooms are accessed. The principal bedroom is dual aspect and has a walk-through dressing area and en suite bathroom. A guest bedroom also has an en suite bathroom with walk-in shower, whilst three further bedrooms share the large family bathroom.

Outside
Accessed from the farm track, the driveway turns up through a small area of paddock (designated agricultural) to the parking area at the front of the house, with a pond just beyond. A number of mature specimen trees stand around the grounds and boundary providing a lovely established setting for this handsome farmhouse.

There is a detached single garage but after landscaping works to the front area of lawn and driveway in 2017, this no longer has vehicular access and is currently a tool and machinery store.

The gardens are mainly down to lawn, with fruit trees up on the raised rear garden.
