The galley kitchen has farmhouse-style wooden units, a split butler sink and space for all the necessary appliances.

Hurdcott is a small village located three miles north of Salisbury city centre and surrounded by beautiful Wiltshire countryside. Together with neighbouring Winterbourne Dauntsey, Winterbourne Earls, Winterbourne Gunner and West Gomeldon, the collection of villages provide several everyday amenities, including local pubs, a village hall and primary schooling, while nearby Old Sarum and the northern Salisbury suburb of Bishopdown provide access to further facilities, including local shops, a vets and supermarkets. Salisbury city centre provides a wealth of further shops, restaurants, cafés, leisure and cultural facilities, while the city's mainline station has services to London Waterloo (90 mins).

Excellent road connections are provided by the nearby A303, linking to the M3 motorway to the east and the West Country. Airports can be found at Southampton and Bournemouth.

The local area is renowned for its schools, both private and state. There is an outstanding-rated primary school in nearby Bishopdown, while Salisbury offers very good Grammar schools for Girls and boys with independent schooling including Godolphin, Leehurst Swan, Forres Sandle Manor and Moyles Court.

At the entrance, a five-bar wooden gate opens onto the gravel driveway, which leads to the house and provides plenty of parking, as well as access to the integrated garage.

To the rear, the garden is oriented towards the River Bourne, with paved terracing on the riverbank and an area of lawn, bordered by flowerbeds and various shrubs. The garden affords views across the river and towards the meadows and woodland beyond.
