Wardour

LOCATION
The historic settlement of Wardour was once a parish in its own right, though is now part of the civil parish of Tisbury. It is best-known for its extraordinary ancient castle, in which several Hollywood films have been set.

Wardour offers peaceful, rural living. It is in a quiet, unspoilt Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and was recently given International Dark Sky Reserve status on account of its remarkable night sky. Neighbouring Tisbury is a thriving community with a Co-Op, artisan shops, an art gallery and railway station on the Waterloo to Exeter St David’s line. The local architecture is exceptional and the woods that surround the settlement are ideal for birdwatching, foraging and walking.

THE PROPERTY
Originally constructed of local stone in 1858 by the Arundell Estate, Buff Lodge is an incredibly important piece of local architecture that is steeped in history from every angle and has now entered the property market for the first time in 30 years.
Idyllically set within approximately 3.5 acres of glorious and magical grounds, the attractive, charming and elegant accommodation to the main house totals just over 2500 sq. ft and is beautifully laid out over three floors.
With a charming approach from the sweeping driveway, a welcoming entrance hall presents a warm arrival which is neatly followed by a Matthew Burt kitchen that offers the most amazing view of the grounds and countryside beyond. A dining room and sitting room are also present as well as a conservatory, study and downstairs WC.
Upstairs are four excellently sized bedrooms including a spacious principal room complete with dressing room and a fantastic en suite. Other upstairs rooms include the wonderful library and a further study.

THE GARDEN ROOM

Externally, the grounds at Buff Lodge are just as impressive and beautifully presented as the internal accommodation. Spanning approximately 3.5 acres, and as described by the Owner as ‘Simply Wonderful’ they include several areas of manicured lawns, feature and intelligent planting and numerous specimen trees. The gardens at this spectacular property provide a flawless balance of areas to entertain, but also areas for privacy, fun and enjoyment throughout the seasons.
