Believed to date back to the mid 17th century, the property has been seamlessly and sympathetically extended in more recent times to create a comfortable family home extending to approximately 3761 square feet, with an elegant fusion of character features and modern fittings.
The principal reception rooms are symmetrically arranged off the hall and comprise a double aspect drawing room, a study, dining room and a double aspect snug/family room, as well as a cloakroom. To the rear of the house there is a large kitchen/breakfast room, with duel fuel range cooker, walk in larder, a separate utility room and a second storeroom/walk in pantry room.
On the first floor, a central landing area provides access to four bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which features a traditional sauna. Three of the four bedrooms are double aspect with two of the bedrooms benefiting from built in storage facilities and elevated views across the grounds and beyond the various aspects.
Adjoining the main house is the delightful, 3 bedroom Applestore Spa Cottage/Annexe, which has been created by the current owners and finished to an exceptional standard to provide a wonderful retreat and an excellent income stream. The cottage has been created at considerable expense by the current owners and is a wonderful addition to the property, offering options for a variety of uses.
It also features a small wine cellar and private covered courtyard with a backdrop of the surrounding mature trees and abundant wildlife. Separate from the house is a former stable block/two story outbuilding, which is currently arranged as a double garage and workshop with a fixed staircase that leads to a cinema room/recreational area on the first floor. This excellent outbuilding offers significant potential for conversion and potential ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents being granted.
Outside
Set off a country lane, Sandhills House is approached via a five bar gate which leads down to a parking area providing off road parking for multiple vehicles and access to the double garage.
On the south side of the house there is a wide paved terrace, beyond which lie the well tended gardens, which are mostly laid to lawn and bordered by herbaceous borders, mature shrubs and many rare species of plants and trees as well as daffodils in the spring bluebell banks and a multitude of wildlife.
The grounds then extend away from the property to the west and are neatly apportioned into different areas of interest, comprising areas of lawn garden, a large paddock with stable block and a kitchen/vegetable garden with greenhouse.
In total, the gardens and grounds attributed to the property extend to approximately 3.5 acres, with wonderful, elevated views to the south towards the village. The current owners assure us it is a private haven with complete privacy and many wildlife visitors including deer and birds of prey, making it a bird spotters delight!
Situation
Sandhills House is situated in an elevated position on the northern edge of the popular Nadder Valley village of Dinton. The village has its own primary and pre-school, public house, church, village green and cricket pitch. It is approximately 5 miles west from the delightful market town of Wilton which offers a range of shops for everyday needs. The Cathedral City of Salisbury is about 8.5 miles with a wider range of shopping, restaurants, arts and recreational facilities. Salisbury Station and nearby Tisbury station offer a direct train service to London Waterloo taking from 1 hour and 25 minutes and the A303 provides access to the southwest and to London via the M3.There is a wide selection of excellent state and private schools in the area including Chafyn Grove, The Cathedral School, Sandroyd school, Godolphin Girls School as well as being within catchment of both Bishop Wordsworth's and South Wilts Grammar Schools and Shaftesbury state boarding Secondary school.
