Newton Toney, Salisbury, Wiltshire, Sp4

A DETACHED EXTENDED VICTORIAN FAMILY HOUSE WITH A FOUR CAR GARAGE STANDING IN JUST OVER HALF AN ACRE WITH IMPRESSIVE LANDSCAPED MATURE GARDENS ENJOYING BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY VIEWS IN A QUIET ELEVATED SETTING ON THE EDGE OF THIS SOUGHT AFTER VILLAGE

A detached house, formerly a Victorian station house, constructed of brick elevations beneath a slate roof with decorative ridge tiles. The characterful accommodation comprises good sized light and airy rooms with high ceilings and a number of fireplaces. There is scope to modernise and extend the house further, subject to consent. The property has the additional benefit of eight PV/electricity generating solar panels with a favourable tariff. There is also a spacious detached four car garage with inspection pit, additional workshop area and a sun room/potting area. Station House stands in just over half an acre with the majority of the garden benefitting from a south westerly aspect. There is a long drive and plenty of off-road parking, large lawns, well stocked borders and mature trees. Much of the house and gardens enjoy a most attractive open aspect over rolling adjoining countryside whilst still feeling private.

The property has an elevated setting on the edge of Newton Tony, surrounded by countryside in one of the most historical parts of Wiltshire along the Hampshire Gap with excellent walking and cycling and is also close to Stonehenge. The village offers everyday facilities which include a church (dating back to 1179), well-established pub with restaurant (the Malet Arms), primary school (catchment area for Salisbury grammar schools), an active village community with hall, playing fields and bus service to the cathedral city of Salisbury (about 8 miles distant). It is also home to the RSPB Winterbourne Downs Nature Reserve, a working farm that lies in the heart of Wiltshire's rolling chalk countryside. A main line railway station providing fast services to Waterloo is located in Grateley, approximately 5 miles away. The A303 is close at hand (approximately 3 miles) allowing convenient access to London and the West Country.
