4 bed bungalow for sale

Duck Street, Steeple Langford, Salisbury, Wiltshire SP3

A truly unique four bedroom property set on the banks of the Wylye River with stunning views over the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust land.

Riverside is a fabulous family home in the picturesque village of Steeple Langford. It occupies a large plot, with extensive river frontage, a substantial mature garden, ample parking and double garage. The internal accommodation spans 1,832 sq ft with potential to expand into the loft – subject to the necessary consents – which is a further 1,217 sq ft.

Inside the main living accommodation, your eyes are immediately drawn to the river views and the nature reserve beyond from every room. The sitting room is triple aspect, creating a bright sunny space throughout the day, and also benefits from sliding patio doors, for a panoramic view of the river, and access directly to the patio area and garden. It also features a wood burning stove. The study area adjoins the sitting room and would be a perfect area for a home office. When the property was built, there were plans to convert the loft area, and the study was specifically designed with ample room to install a staircase. The dining room is a light airy space, which provides a seamless flow between the sitting room and kitchen. The sliding patio doors, open out onto the patio & garden. The kitchen/breakfast room boasts granite work tops, plenty of over and under counter storage, double electric oven/grill, an electric hob and a wood fired stove. The wood fired stove can be used for additional hob/ oven cooking space, to heat the kitchen area or to warm the hot water and central heating. Like the sitting room, the kitchen is triple aspect and has far reaching views down the river and over the garden. Off of the kitchen, is the utility area/ boot room, with space for a washing machine and dryer, and provides access out to a very generous conservatory.

The spacious hallway leads to the four large double bedrooms, one of which is currently being used as an office. All four rooms have built in storage, and the principal bedroom is dual aspect with views over the garden. There is a family bathroom which has a shower over the bath, and a further separate shower room. The hallway also offers a considerable amount of additional storage in the airing cupboard and adjoining cupboard.

The property benefits from double glazed windows and doors, oil central heating with a brand new boiler (replaced in 2025), as well as wood burning stoves in the sitting room and kitchen.

Steeple Langford is a village at the heart of the Wylye Valley and benefits from direct access onto the A36, and is just two miles from the A303, which provides very convenient access to London and Exeter. There are beautiful lakes and exceptional views of the Wiltshire Countryside which surround the village. Steeple Langford benefits from a traditional country pub with garden, children’s play park, village cricket club, tennis club, fishing lakes and Wiltshire Wildlife Nature Reserve. Hanging Langford and Little Langford are on the other side of the river and together form a thriving community with the surrounding villages collectively providing private nursery, private schools, church, doctors, veterinary surgery, convenience shops and pubs.

The market town of Wilton provides further amenities which include a post office, coffee shops, a Co-op, garden centre, hairdressers and bakery. Approximately 2 miles to the east is the village of Stapleford which has a petrol station with shop. The Cathedral City of Salisbury is situated to the south east and has a comprehensive choice of schools as well as shopping and recreational facilities.

The garden has been meticulously developed over the years with several mature beds and borders surrounding the lawn. There is a very well established vegetable garden to the left hand side of the property where you will find the greenhouse. In addition to the vegetable garden there is a secluded wooded area on the waters edge which is the perfect spot for making the most of the evening sun. The lawn encompasses the property and there are several useful structures including a summer house, shed, log shed along with a large double garage. The highlight of the garden is the lawn which leads onto the private footbridge over the river, giving brilliant access for numerous walking routes and access to Langford Lakes.
