3 bedroom house

An attractive detached village home set in gardens of a third of an acre in this popular Wiltshire village.


Description

Dower House is an attractive stone built detached property offering approx. 1,573 sq ft of flexible accommodation over two floors. Originally designed to have three bedrooms to the first floor and family living to the ground, the property has been adapted by its previous owners to accommodate later living with a large en-suite bedroom to the ground floor. This could easily go back to its original design if required, creating a more traditional home.

The property sits in a gardens of just over a third of an acre, which affords further space to potentially extend into if required (subject to the necessary permissions).

Currently the property offers a welcoming entrance hall with cloakroom leading off. This opens into a spacious living/dining kitchen area. The modern kitchen features some integrated appliances as well as a contemporary style and finish. Further to the ground floor is a large en suite bedroom, which was formerly a sitting room and could easily go back to this.

To the first floor are the bedrooms, which again were previously three bedrooms and two bathrooms but now consist of two large bedroom spaces and a bathroom.

Overall the property offers an ideal opportunity to finesse and update to one’s own specification making the most of its enviable position within this highly desirable Wiltshire village.

There are large level lawns to the front of the property as well as a glass house and raised beds. To the rear is a patio area enclosed with wooden panelled fencing. The gardens and grounds offer a relatively blank canvas to enhance the property further.
