Description

9 Spracklands is a charming two bedroom semi-detached bungalow that would be a perfect first home or investment opportunity. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac in the lovely village of Dinton, 9 Spracklands benefits from a rural setting with the advantage of being close to the city of Salisbury.

The property now requires a degree of updating and redecoration with the current owners having made some improvements to the layout during their time at the property including opening up the entrance hall, to create a more open living space, and the installation of a wood burning stove, set

centrally in the property to ensure all rooms benefit from the heat. The accommodation comprises a sitting room, kitchen with lean to sun room/utility space to the rear with a separate store, ideal for use as a log store. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom.

Outside

9 Spracklands benefits from a larger that average garden with pedestrian access to the side of the property. Currently laid mainly to lawn with some recently planted hedges the garden really compliments the property with a paved terrace immediately to the rear and a low level dry stone retaining wall and raised flower bed.

There is plenty of parking close by, either on the road outside the property or in one of the communal parking areas in the cul-de-sac.
