Milestone Cottage is the most charming country home in a delightful location with outstanding countryside views, offering easy transport links to Marlborough, Devizes and the M4 corridor.
This delightful family home boasts four double bedrooms, two bathrooms, three receptions, large family kitchen, utility and boot room. Milestone Cottage has plenty of room for the whole family, yet given the cottage features, the house feels cosy and comfortable for just two! The master bedroom has a wonderful balcony, perfect for sipping your morning coffee, or evening aperitif, whilst watching the wildlife and tranquillity of the Bowood Estate. The large family kitchen has doors opening onto the garden, a bespoke island unit and space for a sofa and breakfast table.
There are several superb buildings outside, a large year round garden room suitable for entertaining, or a teenage hideout. A comfortable home office or treatment room, plus the garage has been fully converted to currently house a home gym. There is parking for several cars, and mature gardens, wrapping around the entire house.
Positioned on the River Marden, Calne is a pretty market town on the north-western side of the North Wessex Downs hill range, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The shops and restaurants of the town are within easy walking distance. Devizes and Marlborough are both a 20min drive away. The National Trust village of Lacock is also easily accessible.
Even closer to home is Bowood House and Gardens, a wonderful Georgian estate set within 100 acres of parkland. The current vendors of Milestone Cottage walk the grounds every morning with their dog, accessing the many paths and bridleways directly from the house.
The selection of nearby schools is excellent. State options include Kingsbury Green Academy and three other secondaries in Chippenham, a 15-minute drive away. Independent schools nearby include St Margaret’s Preparatory School, St Mary’s, Dauntsey’s School in West Lavington, and Marlborough College.
Regular rail services to London Paddington are available from Chippenham rail station, with a journey time of just over an hour. In the opposite direction, services run to Bath and Bristol in around 10 and 20 minutes respectively.
