3 bedroom detached house for sale

Fine & Country are delighted to present Willow Tree Barn, an individual, architect designed, three-bedroom detached home occupying a delightful waterside position beside Semington Brook, within the village of Worton

Overview

Willow Tree Barn is an individual architect designed, three-bedroom detached home occupying a delightful waterside position beside Semington Brook, within the village of Worton.
Completed in 2011, the property was thoughtfully designed with sustainability at its core and finished to a high standard throughout. Its environmentally conscious design incorporates a water-source heat pump drawing energy from the brook, solar thermal photovoltaic panels and underfloor heating across both floors, creating an efficient and comfortable living environment. Previously operated as a holiday cottage, the property’s eco-friendly credentials were recognised with a ‘Visit Wiltshire Green Tourism Award’ in 2013.

The property lies on the edge of a village setting within the heart of Wiltshire, approximately three miles from the historic market town of Devizes, which provides a range of everyday amenities. The larger centres of Bath, Salisbury, Swindon and Newbury are all easily accessible by road, while mainline rail services from Chippenham and Pewsey offer direct connections to London Paddington in just over an hour. The area is also well regarded for a variety of leisure opportunities and a selection of both private and state schooling.

Accommodation Summary

The ground floor provides three bedrooms, including two double rooms and a single. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite wet room. A larger family shower room, finished with contemporary floor-to-ceiling tiling, serves the remaining bedrooms.

A broad oak staircase leads to the first floor where a striking open-plan kitchen/living space forms the centrepiece of the home. From the sitting area, sliding doors open onto a balcony with reinforced glass surround to enjoy open views of the surrounding countryside. The kitchen area is fitted with granite work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances, with subtle mood lighting and plinth lighting adding to the contemporary finish.

Outside

Externally, the gardens have been arranged for ease of maintenance while still making the most of the attractive waterside setting. Several seating areas provide pleasant spaces to relax outdoors, and a private decked bridge spans the brook, creating a charming spot to enjoy the surrounding views while also linking directly to countryside walks and neighbouring footpaths.
Parking is available at the side of Willow Tree Barn parallel with the road for one to two vehicles, while double gates provide access to an additional private parking space.

It should be noted that the nearby courtyard is not allocated for parking, as it serves as a turning area for neighbouring properties.
