Summary - BONDS SUTTON MANDEVILLE SALISBURY SP3 5NA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Characterful 4-bed thatched cottage on c.1.72 acres with stunning country views.
Grade II listed cottage with abundant original character features
Ivy Cottage is a Grade II listed thatched house set in about 1.72 acres of mature gardens and meadow, with far-reaching Cranborne Chase countryside views. The house combines traditional character — exposed beams, original fireplace and stone walls — with practical modern touches such as underfloor heating, a newly thatched roof and a well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen. Several reception rooms create flexible family living and social space, with French doors and patios stepping out to south- and west-facing seating areas.
The layout provides four bedrooms and two bathrooms arranged over two staircases, making the property versatile for family life, guests or home working. Outside there is ample parking for several cars, planning permission in place for a two-bay garage, and useful outbuildings including a summer house and shed. The hamlet location offers peace and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, while Tisbury (3 miles) and Salisbury (11 miles) provide shops, rail links and more comprehensive services.
Important practical points: the house’s listed status protects historic features but will restrict alterations and can make some works more complex and costly. Council tax is high and rooms are generally small-to-medium in scale compared with modern builds. The setting is rural and quiet — ideal for countryside living but less convenient for those seeking immediate local amenities.
This home will suit buyers looking for a characterful country retreat with strong outdoor space and potential to enhance existing buildings (subject to listed consent). It is appealing to families and downsizers who value privacy, views and period charm, and who are comfortable managing the responsibilities that come with a listed property.
