The Home:

A truly stunning thatched period home, believed to date back to the 1700s, set in an idyllic rural position along a private lane and surrounded by unspoilt Wiltshire countryside. Enjoying far-reaching views from almost every window, this beautifully restored home combines character, space and flexibility in equal measure.

The ground floor offers superb versatility, centred around a farmhouse-style kitchen with direct flow into a separate dining room—ideal for everyday living and entertaining. A standout triple-aspect sitting room enjoys stunning garden and countryside views, complete with feature fireplace, while a cosy snug provides a more intimate reception space. A utility room, shower room and home office/occasional fourth bedroom further enhance the layout.

A major highlight is the ability to make this ground floor bedroom/study a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, perfect for multi-generational living, guests or income potential. With its own living area, kitchenette/utility, shower room and double bedroom, it offers complete independence if required.

On the first floor, there are three generous double bedrooms, two with built-in storage, all enjoying exceptional countryside outlooks. A well-appointed family bathroom with bath and separate shower completes the first floor.

Outside, the property sits within approximately 0.44 acres of beautifully arranged gardens. A sandstone terrace leads onto established lawns and a variety of seating and growing areas, all designed to make the most of the setting. A detached garden office/summer house provides the ideal work-from-home space, positioned for privacy and peace. The home is further complemented by ample off-road parking, a double garage and workshop.
