Description
Located on the rural edge of Malmesbury within a very desirable position set back from the road and overlooking fields, this detached house is a stunning family home that boasts many enviable attributes. Built of an individual design, the property was constructed in 1996 alongside only three other homes and has been reconfigured by the current owners to create an outstanding open plan living area. The accommodation is tastefully presented throughout with excellent proportions extending to over 2,200 sq.ft.
The ground floor opens to an entrance hall with a galleried staircase while the eye is immediately drawn to the main focal point of the fantastic views over the large garden to the countryside beyond. The exceptional open plan kitchen, dining, and living room takes full advantage of the views through two sets of bi-folding doors and is filled with natural light. The living room has a cosy fireplace with wood-burning stove inset while the kitchen is arranged around a breakfast bar and has a built-in dishwasher, wine cooler, and a Stoves range gas cooker. Across the hall there is an additional reception room with a front bay window. There is also a downstairs WC and a utility room with side access. On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom with both a shower unit and bath. The light and bright principal bedroom suite enjoys far-reaching views from the rear and is accompanied by an en-suite shower room. Both of the bathrooms have underfloor heating. Above the garage and accessed by a second staircase there is a versatile office/home business space or fifth bedroom option.
The property sits within a fantastic 0.42 acre south-east facing plot. There is plenty of private off-street parking on the front drive in addition to the double garage. The large sunny garden spans some 250ft in length laid mostly to lawn with thoughtfully placed seating terraces creating idyllic outside living areas. In addition to the garden, the property has the benefit of a share of a 9 acre field which is owned together with 9 other properties. A gate from the foot of the garden provides private access into the field where there is a public footpath continuing through the countryside, perfect for dog walks.
