Whitsbury Road, Odstock

Description

A very rare and exceptional opportunity to purchase a detached character cottage together with planning permission for a pair of semi-detached cottages, situated in about an acre on the edge of a highly sought after village. The cottage would benefit either from updating or with the addition of an extension would create a wonderful family home. The two new homes have been designed in a cottage style and therefore fit in well with the surrounding landscape. When built, the village itself would gain the benefit of a beautiful communal orchard. It is set in one of our most popular villages within walking distance of the hospital, 2 good local public houses, nursery school and dentist. The city of Salisbury with it’s Medieval center and excellent facilities including a mainline train route to Waterloo, is only 3 miles away. There is excellent walking and riding on the doorstep as well as lovely views over surrounding farmland.

This is a very rare opportunity nowadays and the agents would highly recommend an early viewing. For further details please call Whites on 01722 336422.
