Built 11 years ago, Bower House showcases architectural ingenuity with air source heat pump, providing hot water and underfloor heating throughout. Set into the hillside above the valley, it is creatively designed over four floors. Oak and stone flooring, underfloor heating throughout, panelled oak doors and winding staircases all feature and add to the character of this house that is flooded with natural light throughout.
From the entrance hall, the welcoming dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room features bespoke painted wood units beneath granite worktops and includes a large island unit. Appliances include AEG induction hob and double oven with warming drawer and integrated Miele dishwasher. Glazed French doors open to the enclosed, walled terrace. Directly off the kitchen is a cosy snug. The utility/boot room opens to the rear terrace and to the garage. There is also a cloakroom to this floor.
Stairs rise to a half landing and the large, dual aspect sitting room, with a southerly aspect, and French doors to the terrace and garden. A painted wood fireplace houses a Jetmaster fire.
Off the galleried landing are two double bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes, one presently used as a study, a family bathroom and large linen cupboard. Steps lead to the vaulted ceilinged principal bedroom. Dual aspect, with built in wardrobes and a spacious en suite shower room. On the top floor is a characterful attic bedroom with two Velux Cabrio windows with far reaching views towards Marleycoombe Hill. There is dressing area to one end with an en suite shower room. From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the west side of the house to a private guest bedroom with its own dressing room and shower room.<br /><br />The south facing gardens are terraced with mature shrubs and trees ensuring total privacy. The walled kitchen terrace has mature herbaceous beds above, and wide steps rise to the lawn with a garden shed/summerhouse to the far side. A further covered stone terrace opens from the sitting room. To the side of the house lies useful, gravelled rear terrace. From the lawn a bank rises to the eastern boundary, planted with mature shrubs. Steps rise to a garden gate opening onto a footpath, connecting to myriad other footpaths, bridleways, the village cricket club, Broad Chalke and Marleycoombe Hill. The double garage has space for a workshop and outside there is parking for several cars.<br /><br />Bowerchalke is a thriving community, with its own cricket club, nestling in the popular Chalke Valley on the Eastern edge of the Cranborne Chase and Wessex Downs Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is a shop/Post Office, primary school, tennis club, Doctors' surgery and excellent pub in neighbouring Broad Chalke. The Cathedral city of Salisbury, only 10 miles away, has twice weekly markets, supermarkets, theatre and a variety of independent shops.
There is excellent walking, cycling and riding all around while the south coast is easily accessible. This area has become particularly sought after because of the exceptional number of good schools at all levels, including Port Regis, Sandroyd and Hazelgrove preparatory schools. Sherborne, Bryanston, Clayesmore, Canford and Milton Abbey are also accessible as are the excellent schools (including both boys and girls Grammar schools) in and around Salisbury itself. Broad Chalke primary school has been rated outstanding by Ofsted.
