Church Farm House is the principal house of a small superbly designed development and offers excellent flexible living accommodation. A great deal of attention has been paid to the design, mixing classical style and proportions with modern living. The house benefits from under floor heating on both the ground and first floor and there is double glazing throughout.
The property which is approached by a 5 bar electric gate, is double fronted and has elevations of English bond brickwork under a tiled roof.
The front door opens in to the reception hall, where the standard of finish is immediately evident with limestone flooring
and the carved oak staircase. The drawing room which is double aspect and overlooks the garden has an open Jetmaster fire with marble surround and slate hearth. Clever concealed sliding doors link the drawing room with the dining room, which has oak floors and half glazed doors to the reception hall. Another set of sliding doors lead through to the well equipped kitchen/breakfast room, which again has limestone flooring as well as a fully fitted and integrated kitchen with marble worktops. A door from the kitchen leads to the laundry room and side entrance giving access to the garden
and the parking area. All principal rooms on the ground floor have French windows opening onto the terrace and have views over the garden and River Avon beyond. The first floor continues to offer generous living space. Double doors open on to the Master bedroom which provides a walk in wardrobe and en suite bathroom. There are a further three
double bedrooms on the first floor, one of which is an en suite shower room. There is also a family bathroom. On the second floor there are two further generously sized bedrooms with en
suite facilities.
The house has been designed with modern technology in mind including a multi room audio system with access to music from a central i- pod dock which is situated in the kitchen. Individual wall control panels and ceiling speakers can be found in all reception rooms and the master bedroom.
Church Farm House occupies an enviable riverside position, in the charming village of Great Durnford opposite the village cricket pitch. The village has excellent communications being close to the A303. Salisbury and Grateley (11.5 miles) stations have fast, regular services to London Waterloo. There are a wide range of shopping, social and recreational facilities in Salisbury. The delightful countryside around Great Durnford provides a wide range of rural activities such as riding, walking and fishing on the River Avon. The valley has a number of well
regarded public houses including the Black Horse in the village.
This area around Salisbury has become particularly popular because of the good selection of state and private schools including Salisbury Cathedral School, Godolphin School, Bishop Wordsworth, South Wilts and Chafyn Grove and Leaden Hall.
The property is approached via a long shared gravel drive, through a five bar double electric gate which leads to a turning and parking area adjacent to the house and double garage. The gardens lie to the rear of the house and include an illuminated paved terrace, immediately accessible from the drawing room and kitchen. The garden which is walled is mainly laid to lawn and affords views over the River Avon and the countryside beyond.
