Secluded village home with large garden and versatile reception rooms.
Thatched 1650 cottage with exposed beams and flagged floors
Primrose Cottage is a rare 17th-century thatched semi with abundant period charm and comfortable living space for a growing family. Exposed beams, flagged floors and working fireplaces give character across four reception rooms and four bedrooms, while a well-equipped kitchen and utility room support daily family life.
Outside, large secluded cottage gardens, a vegetable plot, greenhouse, garage and gravelled off-street parking provide useful outside space for children, storage and hobbies. The village setting on Salisbury Plain places local amenities, a good primary school and countryside walks within easy reach.
Important practical points: the house is offered freehold at auction and completion must follow the Modern Method of Auction timetable (56 days). Buyers should factor in a non-refundable reservation fee (4.2% min £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack cost. The property has oil-fired heating and secondary glazing, slow broadband, medium flood risk and traditional granite walls likely without modern insulation, so energy and maintenance costs should be considered.
The layout is unusual — four bedrooms are accessed via three separate staircases — which may suit families seeking distinctive period accommodation but could complicate planning for modern layouts. The thatched roof and older fabric will need periodic specialised upkeep; some buyers may wish to invest in insulation and heating upgrades to improve comfort and running costs.
