5 bedroom detached house for sale

This handsome 1930s red-brick house was built by Devizes firm Rendells, who were well-regarded for their house-building at the time.

The elegant accommodation is arranged around a fine galleried entrance hall and large windows draw in the surrounding countryside views and provide great natural light. The ground floor offers a study with bespoke handmade fitted furniture and bookshelves plus three further elegant and versatile reception rooms. Both the living room and snug feature attractive open fireplaces with large bays and sash windows that flood the spaces with natural light. The fabulous 23ft triple aspect garden room (currently used as a dining room) has slate tiled flooring, French doors and views down the garden. A 26ft kitchen / breakfast room has 2 large sash windows that take full advantage of the views up to Salisbury Plain. There is a walk-in pantry cupboard, a duel fuel AGA and a range of bespoke units by 'Smallbone of Devizes' with oak and granite worktops. Set off the kitchen is a utility, a cloakroom and a door into the sizeable double garage with light, power and an electric door. The garage could be knocked through to the kitchen to make one enormous kitchen if so desired. There are 3 generous double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC all on the first floor. The principal bedroom also enjoys incredible views from the large bay, has custom made fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. On the top floor there are two further double bedrooms plus attic storage.

A sweeping gravelled driveway leads up to the front of the house which stands in generous, well established gardens which provide a lovely setting.
