Description

A truly impressive and elegant family home built in 2005, set in an exceptional approx. 3.2 acre plot (with additional land available) nestled on the edge of this much sought after North Wiltshire village. Built of attractive Bath stone with extensive adjoining equestrian facilities and scope for various further developments (STPP), this desirable detached house extends to approx. 2,400 sq. ft of internal accommodation and benefits from stabling, outbuildings, a double garage, EV charging and is offered for sale with the rarity of no onward chain.

Having been lovingly updated and modernised over the last 20 years of ownership, this distinctive and discretely located home is approached via a no through lane and a private drive leading to a large flint gravel driveway, situated behind a traditional five bar wooden gate. Internally a remarkably light and spacious entrance hall with a striking central staircase is a superb welcome. Located off the hall is an exquisite dual aspect living room including an imposing fireplace with a log burner and attractive stone surround, complimented by bespoke wooden cabinetry, in addition to glazed double doors to both aspects to the garden. The house has also recently benefited from sumptuous new carpets throughout.

Situated to the opposite side of the house is the country style kitchen, boasting a comprehensive range of attractive bespoke in-frame shaker wall and base units with deluxe granite worktops, a traditional Alpha Cooker/Boiler made by AGA, integrated white goods, a sociable central island as well as new dual integrated fridge freezers. With modern décor, a charming, tiled floor and a casual dining/seating area, the room is a wonderful space to relax and entertain. Neighbouring this is an inviting formal dining room, which is fantastically proportioned with a lovely garden outlook and external patio access. A very useful home office as well as fully fitted boot and utility room with side access (and warm outdoor dog shower) as well as a downstairs cloakroom with W/C, completes the ground floor accommodation.

Rising to the first floor are four immaculately presented and light filled double bedrooms with splendid, fitted storage and stylish contemporary décor. With a unique blend of traditional charm and modern convenience, there are two modern en-suite shower rooms, as well as a luxurious family bathroom with an impressive freestanding bath.

Externally the paddocks, grounds and outbuildings are unique for a modern home with outstanding and far reaching rural vistas with a great degree of overall privacy. Use of a rear driveway is ideal for equestrian activities with access to the rear garden. Beyond the considerable and enclosed landscaped lawn, situated directly behind the house, is a large paddock for livestock with stabling and yard. The entirety of the plot is confined by established hedgerow, post and rail fencing.
