Location: Whatcome Brow, Orcheston, Salisbury, Wiltshire, United Kingdom
If you’re a dab hand at anagrams, you may well work out this sumptuous property’s name, but we won’t spoil it for you - yet.
This unique property was built in 1964, the same year as many television milestones - BBC Two began, Match of the Day and Top of the Pops, and the long gone, though not perhaps lamented, soap “Crossroads” first aired.
It was a bespoke timber-framed, architect-designed home on a concrete foundation within this conservation area, some 10 miles form Salisbury and 3 miles from Stonehenge. The property is tucked well back from a quiet road, where rush hour comprises a horse vying with a tractor, and is sandwiched between a barn and cottages dating back to the 1800s.
The village itself has only 69 houses and this property Camerice (keep thinking) has had only 5 owners in 54 years. The current owners are relative newcomers but are reluctant to move from a property that they’ve invested so much time and loving care in.
It’s been fully rewired, had a new GRP roof, Celotex insulation and weatherboard cladding, with lengthy warranties remaining. It has half an acre of garden and an original swinging sixties swimming pool, that has been updated with air-sourced heating and the like.
Inside, there is a large L shaped lounge diner, flooded with light for Vitamin D lovers from two sets of patio doors - one double and one triple - interspersed with windows. The kitchen has been refurbished too, with new range, new sink and restoration of the original cabinets.
Additionally, there are three double bedrooms, with the master overlooking the pool and a second used as a bespoke cinema room.
In terms of practically, there is parking for 7 cars, all lured to the property by the swimming experience we guess, and a double garage with powered doors and a cavernous space.
We will leave the last words with the owners, who were asked what they will miss the most.
“The location is idyllic, there’s no road noise or light pollution and sitting out listening to birds and nature with a cup of tea is what we will miss the most.”
