4 bed detached house for sale
Corner Cottage, 4 Catherine Court, Shrewton, SP3 4BT (ref: 76bc23ed-b2b8-4e68-b17b-f377d31b566e)

Tucked into a quiet corner in the very heart of Shrewton, Corner Cottage is a thoughtfully laid out village home that was built around 2000 within the former grounds of the Catherine Wheel pub.  The house offers plenty of space, a fully enclosed garden and the rare advantage of having the shop, school, doctor’s surgery and bus stop just moments away, yet it retains a quiet, private feel.

The entrance sets the tone. The central hallway is a lovely, welcoming space in its own right, finished with LVT flooring that runs seamlessly into both the living room and the study. Glazed double doors open into the living room and, when folded back, create an open, flowing ground floor that feels bright and spacious. It’s a layout that works particularly well for family life and for entertaining, allowing the rooms to feel connected without losing definition.

The living room is at the back of the house and is a really good size with French doors opening straight onto the patio and garden. A working open fireplace forms the focal point and adds warmth and character. There is plenty of space for large furniture and the direct access to the garden makes the room feel even larger in the warmer months.

Next to the living room, the kitchen/diner offers practical, well-planned space, with room for a proper family table, good cupboard storage and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge/freezer.  The sink overlooks the garden (useful for keeping an eye on the children!) and the adjoining utility room keeps laundry and day-to-day tasks neatly contained. A back door from here leads to the garage and the garden making everyday movement through the house easy.

The study benefits from the same LVT flooring as the hallway, adding to the overall flow of the ground floor. It provides valuable flexibility and is equally suited to home working, hobbies or an additional reception room.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a bright double-aspect room with space for a super king bed and further furniture. It includes an en suite shower room with a large shower enclosure. Three further bedrooms, all of which fit double beds, provide versatile accommodation for family, guests or workspace. A family bathroom serves these rooms and from the landing a drop-down ladder gives access to a large, partially boarded loft offering excellent storage.

The garden sits behind the house and is fully enclosed. It’s a manageable size but big enough for children to play and for keen gardeners to make the most of it. Two substantial borders provide space for shrubs and flowers, while the paved patio outside the living room offers plenty of room for a table, chairs and BBQ. The patio catches the morning sun making it an ideal spot for coffee outdoors.  Importantly the garden has good light throughout the afternoon and is not overlooked and this adds to the sense of privacy.

The double garage is attached to the house and accessed externally by a door close to the utility room door. It has power and lighting and offers secure storage for vehicles, bikes or tools. The driveway comfortably accommodates at least two vehicles but has capacity for up to four if required.

Corner Cottage has been rented for several years and is presented fresh, clean and ready to move straight into. There are new carpets, new showers, a newly fitted boiler and it has been freshly redecorated. The kitchen and bathrooms are functional and well maintained but a new owner may choose to update them over time.

The village setting is a genuine strength. The shop and post office are seconds away, the primary school and doctor’s surgery are within easy walking distance, and the Plume of Feathers pub sits at the end of the High Street. There are extensive walks across Salisbury Plain, a regular bus service to Salisbury and Devizes and easy access to the A303.

Chain free and well positioned, this is a practical, family home with good sized rooms and a layout that makes everyday life easy.
