Foxley House is an elegant home with generous principal rooms and many architectural features synonymous with its period.
The house has been the much-loved home of the same family for nearly a century as such its sale offers a once in a several generations opportunity, albeit now in need of some updating. Set well back from the lane and accessed via a long, private driveway, the property enjoys complete seclusion within its own extensive grounds.
Arranged over three floors, the house provides beautifully proportioned and versatile accommodation. A welcoming reception hall opens to a number of elegant reception rooms including a formal drawing room, sitting room, and dining room. These spaces enjoy high ceilings, sash windows, and fine fireplaces.
The kitchen/breakfast room lies at the heart of the home and has an oil-fired AGA and ample space for informal dining and family gatherings. Adjacent is a utility area and rear access, ideal for country living.
There are six bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with en-suite bathroom and dressing room. The remaining bedrooms are a good size, with lovely views over the gardens and grounds.
A separate annexe provides further flexibility ideal for multi-generational living, a home office, or guest accommodation. In addition, traditional outbuildings include stabling, kennels, and useful stores.
The grounds at Foxley House are a true highlight. Extending to approximately 8.87 acres, they comprise beautifully landscaped gardens, a small pond, and a variety of mature trees and herbaceous borders offering both colour and privacy throughout the seasons.
Beyond the formal garden, there are well-maintained paddocks and good equestrian facilities including stables and a secure yard. The walled swimming pool, complete with pool house, and a tennis court provide excellent outdoor lifestyle amenities.
The approach to the property is particularly attractive, with a gravel driveway offering ample parking and access to a range of outbuildings and garaging.
Foxley is a picturesque and sought-after village surrounded by gently rolling countryside and conveniently positioned between Malmesbury and Chippenham. The village is renowned for its attractive period houses, peaceful setting, and access to numerous bridleways and footpaths.
