The Orchard, Sixpenny Handley, Salisbury

A hugely impressive four bedroom detached home quietly situated within this thriving village with lovely open views to the rear. 15 The Orchard is a very well presented property having been refined and greatly improved by its current owners. The house has a well proportioned and practical layout but also has scope/planning consent for extension. Key features include refitted kitchen with integral appliances, two refitted bathrooms and cloakroom and installation of a log burner. In addition the owners have hugely improved the energy efficiency and sustainability of 15 The Orchard with the installation of a 6KW PV system, 8KW storage battery, highly efficient modern electric heaters and cavity wall insulation. Outside the property has a generous two car drive (with EV charge point), garage and lovely garden overlooking grazing paddocks.

Location - The Orchard is a small modern cul-de-sac well situated within the thriving village of Sixpenny Handley. A very busy local shop is a short walk from the house. The village boasts a long list of amenities including village school, church, doctors, sports pavilion (with pop up bar) and village hall. Sitting within the Cranbourne Chase ANOB, Sixpenny Handley has a wealth of walking on its doorstep. The location provides great access to Salisbury, Blandford and Wimbourne/Ringwood, giving a great range of schooling options.
