A picture postcard detached cottage (c.2700 sqft) with origins dating back to the 16th Century, set in an idyllic village setting with mature attractive gardens amounting to nearly 3/4 of an acre.
Internally, the smartly presented and nicely balanced layout comprises 4 bedrooms complemented by 4 receptions rooms with the flexibility to even divide the right hand side of the house into an annexe if one so desired. A charming entrance hall with Inglenook fireplace and former bread oven leads into a dual aspect sitting room with an attractive fireplace and inviting log burning stove. This in turn opens off to a large dining room with an impressive Inglenook with a 'Reginald' wood burner. The triple aspect modern kitchen/breakfast room has an electric AGA, oak worktops. There is a generous utility, rear hall and cloakroom. To the right hand side is a study with exposed fireplace, a spacious family room opening into a really lovely 15ft conservatory with slate flooring and a new roof (2022), a shower room and second kitchen. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms, with exposed beams and wash hand basins and a refitted family bathroom.
Outside, there is driveway parking alongside a double garage (with an electric door) and a large carport with a good ceiling height suitable for a camper van. Useful outbuildings include a potting shed, two wood stores and a garden room. The beautifully maintained gardens are a real noteworthy feature of this home, and feature plum, cherry, apple, quince and walnut trees alongside various fruit bushes and well kept lawns to both the front and rear.
Situation
The property is set in the sought after Saxon village of Etchilhampton which is on the edge of the Pewsey Vale, designated as an AONB- area of outstanding natural beauty. Ideal for countryside walks and cycling. The historic market town of Devizes is some 2 miles north offering a wider range of facilities including town centre shopping, a leisure centre with swimming pool, museum, theatre and thriving weekly market. Pewsey is approximately 8 miles away with a mainline railway station (Paddington about 1 hour). Other major centres of Swindon, Chippenham, Marlborough, Bath and Salisbury are all within a thirty mile radius.
