A fine family home situated in idyllic countryside with generous gardens and open country views.
Description
Veitchly House is a fine period country home situated in the idyllic country hamlet of Reybridge on the edge of Lacock with its strong National Trust links. The property has a generous garden of approximately in excess of half an acre and backs onto open fields and countryside. This charming property has spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors access via two staircases, which amounts to in excess of 3,000sq ft. Built in a mixture of brick, stone and rendered elevations beneath with a stone tiled roof this attractive property blends seamlessly into this desirable country setting.
The accommodation is both generous and versatile and boasts a large entrance hall ideal for meeting and greeting guests, as well as a great boot room, formal drawing room with feature fireplace and door leading out to the garden. The dining room also acts as a central hub of the home with a breakfast room off and a family room ideal for little ones just off the kitchen. The study/office is at the far end of the house and offers peace and quiet and an amazing view of the surrounding countryside. The main feature of the home is its kitchen/breakfast room, which recently had a glazed and oak addition to increase the overall size, but also make the most of the views to the gardens and countryside beyond.
To the first floor are the bedrooms. The principal bedroom has an en suite bath/shower room and a Juliet balcony making most of the open country views. There are four further bedrooms, an en suite shower room and two further bathrooms. There are two staircases to the first floor
and most of the bedrooms enjoy country views. Overall, this fine country home offers balanced accommodation along with generous gardens with easy access to the village of Lacock and the countryside beyond.
Outside
To the front of the property is a gravel driveway suitable for parking a number of vehicles, which in turn leads to a double garage . The garage has power and lighting as well as a workshop area. To the front of the property are large established beds which are well stocked with a number of shrubs and trees which offer a degree of privacy from the lane. There is access from either side around to the rear gardens.
The rear gardens are private, level and laid predominantly to lawn. Immediately off the back of the house is a large patio area ideal for entertaining. There are steps up to a large level lawn which is interspersed with well stocked colour flower beds, shrubs and mature trees.
To one corner is a screened off vegetable produce area with raised veggie beds and fruit cages as well as a compost area. The lawns wrap around the house and the gardens are there to explore for both young and old alike.
The gardens are surrounded by farmland and paddocks to the side and rear, which afford far reaching uninterrupted country views. In total the whole plot amounts to just over half an acre and enjoys a peaceful country setting.
