Description
Attractive Grade II listed thatched farmhouse with sizable rear garden within which lies a traditional Grade II listed thatched barn.
Lot 1 - The Property - A charming Grade II listed farmhouse, with the original part believed to date back to the late 16th or early 17th century and includes prominent timber framed with brick infill front and side elevations common with the time periods. The roof is thatched, with the ridge having recently been renewed. The house has numerous period features throughout, retaining much of the original charm and character with exposed beams and features three stone fireplaces, the largest of which is located in the main living room.

The village features an excellent primary school, a post office/community shop, a public house, a church, and good recreational facilities. It is positioned on the edge of the North Wessex Downs, a designated National Landscape that extends across northwest Wiltshire.

Additionally, Salisbury, Bath, and Swindon are within easy reach, providing a fully comprehensive range of services. Train services operate from Pewsey to Paddington, while the M4 motorway is accessible to the north (junctions 16 and 17) and the A303/M3 to the south. There are also well-regarded schools in the nearby areas of Marlborough, Market Lavington, Devizes, and Pewsey.
