Full Description: Set within the sought-after Wiltshire downland village of Chitterne, Bow House presents a compelling blend of character, scale and versatility. Designed for modern family living whilst retaining a strong sense of period charm, the house extends to approximately 2,594 sq ft with a further 1,173 sq ft of outbuildings. The arrangement of accommodation creates a home equally suited to entertaining, home working and multi-generational living. <br /> <br />On entering the home through the wisteria covered front door, you are greeted by the 27’ principal reception room which provides a magnificent entertaining space, beautifully complemented by an open fireplace that immediately draws the eye. To the left is an adjoining cosy snug with a step up taking you into the reading room. The heart of the home, dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room offers an array of wall and base level cabinetry, a central island and ample space for a dining table. Adjoining is the conservatory, currently used as a dining room, offering year-round enjoyment of the gardens. A separate study provides a quiet retreat for work or relaxation. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a bedroom with French doors leading out to the terrace and a cloakroom. <br /> <br />Found on the first floor are four bedrooms, three of which have useful built-in storage. The principal bedroom also hosts an en-suite bathroom whilst a separate family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms. <br /> <br />The layout lends itself to both family occupation and visiting guests, with attractive proportions and views across the surrounding countryside.<br /><br /><b>Outside</b><br /><br />The home is positioned to the fore of its plot, boasting magnificent views across its sizeable grounds and to the hillside beyond. Abutting the rear of the home is a terrace area, perfect for outdoor entertaining and dining with a vine draped pergola. The gardens are laid to mature lawns and interspersed with herbaceous borders. Beyond is a sloping paddock which could be grazed during part of the year and is suitable for small livestock. There is a rear gated access at the top of the gardens onto the lane and Salisbury Plain. To the front, the gardens are walled and face the village green with views of the beautiful 19th Century church. To the left is driveway access to a parking area for multiple vehicles, along with a double garage. Adjacent to the rear of the house is an amazing barn, which the current vendors have left as a blank canvas but could have a myriad of uses, be that as an outdoor work space, party barn or additional accommodation for either the house or a relative wishing for independent living, subject to the usual consents.<br /><br /><b>Situation</b><br /><br />The down-land village of Chitterne enjoys a rural setting to the east of the market town of Warminster. Chitterne has a thriving, friendly village community and is home to The Kings Head Pub recognized in the Good Beer guide for 2027. There are good primary schools in the surrounding villages and excellent walking and riding on Salisbury Plain. Warminster is approximately 7 miles and has a good range of shopping and day-to-day facilities including a Waitrose. Bath and Salisbury are both within easy driving distance offering a much wider selection of social and recreational amenities. <br /> <br /> <br />The area has become particularly sought-after for its exceptional number of good schools, both state and private, at all levels. Commuter links are excellent with the A303/M3 providing good access to London and the West Country along with mainline rail services which run from Warminster and Salisbury to London Waterloo and London Paddington from Westbury.<p> <strong> Property Ref Number: </strong> </p>HAM-67138
