House For Sale £2,950,000
An exceptionally well designed and finished Georgian style country house with a converted Barn, annexe and outbuildings in an edge of village setting.
Description
Lower Lodge is a wonderful family house- once a lodge to the neighbouring Alderbury House, it has been entirely rebuilt and extended by the current owners. They have made use of the highest quality materials and exceptional interior design to create a very comfortable home which has the character of a period property with the convenience and efficiency of a modern house.
The Barn and Annexe
The Barn provides a flexible live/work space. It is centred around a magnificent, double height living space with a mezzanine and French door opening out to a walled garden. In addition there is a kitchen and shower room with a store room, or bedroom on the first floor. To the far side is a superb office space.
An adjoining outbuilding has been converted to provide an annexe with a kitchen/sitting room on the ground floor with two bedrooms including a bunkroom for visiting children and a shower room on the first floor.
Gardens and Outbuildings
Lower Lodge is approached through double gates which open onto a gravel driveway. There is a parking and turning area to the front of the house and the drive continues round to access the barn and adjacent garaging and stores..
The gardens have been beautifully landscaped and are predominantly laid to lawn. To the south west and south east of the house there are extensive terraces, framed by box hedges and well designed borders. Beyond the barn is a part-walled garden, which could provide a private space for an annexe or a would be the ideal location for a swimming pool. Further on, is a kitchen garden with well-stocked raised beds.
Location
Lower Lodge sits on the edge of the village of Alderbury in an outstanding rural location, 4 miles to the south east of Salisbury. Alderbury is a sought-after village with local amenities including a primary school, two pubs and a local delicatessen. The surrounding countryside is well known for its beauty and both the New Forest and Cranborne Chase are close by.
Salisbury is an historic Cathedral City and provides a comprehensive range of shopping, dining and cultural amenities and has a direct train service to London Waterloo (from 88 minutes). The A303 and M27 provide good road access to London, Southampton and the wider south of England.
The area is renowned for its first class schooling. Around Salisbury these include: Chafyn Grove, The Cathedral School, Godolphin, Bishops Wordsworth and South Wilts Grammar School. Further afield there are Farleigh, Port Regis, Sandroyd, Bryanston, Sherborne, Winchester and Marlborough.
The area is very popular for the country sports enthusiast with fishing on the River Avon and its tributaries, good shoots and an abundance of walking and riding over a network of footpaths and bridleways. There is horse racing at Salisbury, Newbury and Wincanton.
