Features and description

A pretty period cottage requiring full refurbishment in the sought after Downland village of Martin with immediate access to a local footpath leading to Martin Down. No onward chain.
Holly Tree Cottage is a charming, link-detached period cottage well located in the sought after Downland village of Martin alongside a bridleway that provides access to the beautiful surrounding countryside of Martin Down. The original cottage is believed to date back to Victorian times and sits in manageable front and back gardens and would now benefit from comprehensive refurbishment and possible extension (subject to gaining relevant planning permission). The cottage is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
The picturesque village of Martin nestles within the rolling countryside of the Cranborne Chase, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb) and International Dark Skies Reserve, where a network of country paths and bridle ways access lovely walking and riding countryside across Martin Down. An active and welcoming community, Martin is well supported by a village hall, from which a community shop is run, and a church, and the neighbouring village of Damerham (approx 3 miles) has a reputable primary school, garage and popular public house.
The Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approx. 7 miles) has a range of health, educational, shopping and recreational services sufficient to cater for most day to day needs and the Cathedral City of Salisbury, which offers a broader range of facilities including reputable state and private schooling, is almost equidistant via the A354. Beyond Fordingbridge the A338 and B3078 provide ready access to Bournemouth and Southampton respectively with the latter linking with Junction 1 of the M27. The New Forest National Park is approximately 8 miles to the east, sailing opportunities abound on the South Coast and there is a good choice of local golf clubs including Salisbury and Tollard Royal.
The cottage sits centrally within a small garden plot with front and rear gardens that historically were laid to lawn with a number of shrubs and combination of fencing. There are pedestrian gates on both the front and rear boundaries and the gardens would now benefit from clearing and landscaping where necessary.
