Located within the hugely popular Wiltshire village of Shrewton is Fairview, an eye catching 4 bedroom characterful cottage of excellent proportions containing a wealth of gloriously quirky features. With obvious kerb appeal and a wonderful mature garden, Fairview is a “must view” for those in search of a characterful family home.
We believe that the original portion of the property dates back to the early 17th century with a later 19th century addition which is the main, front, elevation. Demonstrating obvious sensitivity to the period and charm of their home, the present owners have maintained Fairview to an extremely high standard which will be evident to all who view this fine village residence.
Fully double glazed and centrally heated, the accommodation is light and airy with a welcoming reception hall, two comfortable reception rooms and an exceptional well equipped kitchen/breakfast room. In addition, the ground floor offers a large utility room and cloakroom. From the reception hall a staircase gives access to a large converted basement with natural light and two separate rooms; an office and, presently, a further reception/tv room.
The first floor is split levelled; the main suite is located on the lower level with a generous bedroom, en suite bathroom and a deep closet. The upper level has a lovely light galleried landing with access to two further double bedrooms, a large single bedroom and an en trend family bathroom.
Complementing Fairview is a lovely mature partly walled south facing garden which has two large patio areas and an expanse of lawn bordered and interspersed by shrubs, trees and flower beds. There is also a very useful detached outbuilding which would make a fine garden studio or office and a detached double garage block with power, light, eaves storage and inspection pit. There is also parking for several vehicles.
