£500,000 1, Bridge House, Salisbury
Property Ref No. piccoloRS168
On the market for the first time since 2006 and available with no onward chain, 1 Bridge House is a rare find in the heart of Tisbury.
Tucked within one of Tisbury's most iconic and instantly recognisable buildings, 1 Bridge House is a beautifully renovated ground-floor apartment offering a truly distinctive living experience. Occupying the entire lower half of what was formerly the Arundel Arms, this striking home is packed with character, with high ceilings, large windows, and period features throughout. Generously laid out across one level, it has all the space, flow, and feel of a traditional house with the ease of apartment living.
Refurbished with a blend of understated period charm and urban modern design, the apartment feels calm and effortlessly stylish. The home opens into a wonderful light-filled entrance hall, where a striking feature window adds character and a sense of drama to the space.
At its heart is the large kitchen/dining room, a relaxed and sociable space with room for a dining table and a sofa beside the woodburner. Two exits open into the garden: a traditional back door and French doors that are perfect to fling open on warm summer days, connecting indoor and outdoor living with ease.
The sitting room is bright and peaceful with a box bay window that forms a natural seating area and provides lovely views across the village playing fields and river beyond. This welcoming room also features a second log burner, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere year-round.
The apartment has three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes built-in storage and a private en-suite shower room, while the two further bedrooms are set towards the rear and share a shower room, ideal for guests, family, or home-working flexibility.
A rare additional feature is the extensive series of usable cellar rooms beneath the property, offering around 1,086 sq ft of practical and versatile space for storage, hobbies, or creative use. It's a level of flexibility and practicality seldom found in apartment living.
The garden is fully enclosed, sunny and sheltered; a calm and manageable outdoor space that works beautifully for entertaining, whether you're enjoying a summer lunch with the doors open or a quiet evening with friends. There are storage sheds and side gates for easy access, and just beyond the garden gate is a private parking space. There's also potential for a second space by using the small drive-in area in front of the gate - a real bonus this close to the station.
Offered with no onward chain and coming to the market for the first time since 2006, 1 Bridge House is a rare blend of character, comfort, and convenience - a truly special home in a standout setting.
Tisbury has been widely recognised as one of the most desirable villages in the South West, recently listed by The Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in the UK. Set in the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it offers a superb quality of life, blending a vibrant, welcoming community with excellent access to countryside and commuter routes.
Everything you need day-to-day is just a short walk from the front door: the high street includes independent shops, a butcher, deli, caf?s, pubs, post office, doctors' surgery and leisure centre. The open-air community pool, tennis courts and local walking groups make it ideal for those who like to get outdoors, and the wider landscape offers some of the most unspoilt countryside in the region.
Tisbury station is just steps from the property, a level walk of less than one minute with direct and fast rail services to London Waterloo, making this an excellent base for commuters, weekenders, or anyone looking for the best of both worlds. The village also benefits from well-regarded schools and a strong cultural and social calendar throughout the year.
For anyone looking for a truly unique home with exceptional proportions, charm, and lifestyle appeal, 1 Bridge House offers something that's increasingly hard to find - and even harder to leave behind.
