5 Situation Green Farm is set in the heart of Charlton in a private position with superb panoramic southerly views towards the downs. The area is highly regarded as being an extremely pretty part of countryside on the Wiltshire/Dorset border within the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are several bridleways and footpaths accessed locally. There is an excellent village shop / post office in Ludwell as well as a renowned butcher. Shaftesbury is about 3 miles to the west providing a range of everyday facilities. Gillingham is a little further afield having a Waitrose. Tisbury is about 7 miles to the north offering an excellent range of everyday shops and facilities including a mainline service to London Waterloo taking from 1 hour 50 minutes. There are a number of excellent pubs near by including The Forester at Donhead St Andrew, The Beckford Arms at Fonthill or The King John at Tollard Royal. The larger towns of Salisbury and Bath provide a more comprehensive range of shopping, restaurants, cinema and theatre. Communications by road in the area are excellent with the A303 to the north providing a link to the M3, M25 and London or the West Country. There are a range of excellent schools within reach including Sandroyd, Port Regis, Hazelgrove, St Marys Shaftesbury, Clayesmore, Sherborne, Bryanston and Milton Abbey. Hunting is with the South & West Wilts. Racing at Salisbury and Wincanton. Golf at Rushmore and South West Wilts. Watersports along the South Coast. Description Green Farm is as fabulous country property which has been imaginatively converted and renovated by the current owners and given a modern twist with the help of local architect John Comparelli. It has handsome greenstone and brick quoined elevations under a tile roof. Fineline windows and doors have been used, with a mixture of steel, aluminium and glass in the modern additions. This gives a great feeling of space and lets in plenty of extra light. The owners thought carefully about services and it is heated primarily by underfloor heating from a ground source heat pump and there is also a rainwater harvester. Originally converted to a house in the late 1980 s from a collection of traditional stone buildings, the property now offers superb living and entertaining accommodation set in

7 a fabulous position with long reaching views to the downs. The hub of the house is a fantastic vaulted kitchen / breakfast room with marble island, further cupboards with copper worksurfaces and Belfast sink. Sliding French doors open onto the garden terrace and at the southern end is a sitting area with woodburner. Beyond is a lovely Drawing Room with open fireplace and doors to the garden. The Master bedroom suite is at the southern end of the house with a large freestanding bath in the bedroom taking advantage of a spectacular view. Adjoining is an en-suite dressing / shower room. On the ground floor there are 4 further bedrooms with 2 bath / shower rooms, a laundry room and play room. There is currently planning permission to add a two storey extension beyond the drawing room and also create a 3 bay garage within the parking area. The Barn This useful addition is located opposite the house forming the eastern side of the courtyard and has been recently renovated throughout. It briefly comprises a vaulted sitting room, kitchenette, 2 bedrooms with en-suite bath / shower rooms and mezzanine bedroom. This would be ideal as over flow guest accommodation or for an au-pair. Adjoining the barn is the plant room and a further store. Gardens The gardens provide a lovely setting for the house and were arranged by the gardener designer Justin Spink. There is a pretty courtyard garden with large herbaceous borders flanked by flagstone paths and a terrace seating area. A row of pleached crab apple trees divides this area from the gravelled parking. A five bar gate leads to the western side of the garden where a large flagstone terrace adjoins the rear of the house. There are further herbaceous borders and a yew hedge has been planted on part of the northern boundary providing additional privacy to the terrace. Lawns stretch away interspersed with a variety of fruit trees, including apple, pear and plum. An area of rough pasture would be of ample size for keeping a pony, a few sheep or chickens. In all the gardens and grounds extend to about 2 acres. General Remarks & Stipulations Directions (SP7 0EN) From Wilton take the A30 heading west towards Shaftesbury. Continue through Ludwell and up the hill bearing left at the traffic lights signed Charlton.
