## Description

**DESCRIPTION** **** A substantial detached period cottage located on the edge of Chitterne, with good sized well tended gardens, ample parking, garage and workshop. The property is believed to have been built around 1850 and was formerly two Drovers Cottages. It has been substantially extended in more recent years and now offers spacious accommodation, displaying fine period features throughout such as exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces. The accommodation offers an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, lounge/garden room, kitchen, utility room and WC, four bedrooms, en suite bathroom room and shower room.

**OUTSIDE** **** The front garden is enclosed by wooden picket fencing and has a central pathway leading to the front door. It is laid to lawn with established borders of flowers and shrubs with a large mature cherry blossom tree to one corner. To the side of the property is a driveway and parking area leading to the garage and workshop which has double wooden doors to the front and both power and lighting. There is also a purpose built potting shed to the rear of the garage. Also to the side is a good sized patio/seating area. From here there are some steps leading up to the rear garden which is laid to lawn with lovely well stocked borders of flowers, shrubs and bushes. The garden adjoins pony paddocks to the rear and enjoys fine views over the village and surrounding countryside.

**LOCATION** **** The property is situated in the popular village of Chitterne which has a public house, village hall and church.  The village is located approximately 8 miles from Warminster which offers a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities to include library, sports centre, swimming pool, schools, churches, doctors' and dentists' surgeries, hospital and post office.  Warminster also benefits from a main line railway station to London Waterloo whilst the nearby A303 provides excellent road links to London to the east and Exeter to the west.
