Detached house for sale in Calne SN11, 5 Bedroom

An outstanding family home in this most desirable village on the edge of the North Wiltshire downs.

The Village

A fascinating and thriving village surrounded by history and interest. From Neolithic long barrows, sites of special scientific interest, 13th century church, an excellent thatched traditional pub serving ale straight from the barrel, well attended pre and primary school, and one of the biggest Steam Fairs in the country, it really is the best kept secret in Wiltshire. It provides convenient access to the A4 for Marlborough, Bath or south to Devizes, whilst being far enough from traffic, that the only thing you are likely to hear at night are the Owls hooting!

The Property

Home Farm Close was built on the site of the original dairy and follows the feel and line of the barns. Indeed, the house martins come back every year to nest where their forebears have always done. We will park on the driveway and walk through the side gate into the enclosed front garden. Along the path and right into a covered porch and through the front door into the hall. A staircase rises to the first floor with large cupboard below and a door straight ahead opens into the downstairs cloakroom. Turning left we walk into the open plan dining room with windows overlooking the front garden with views up to Kings Play Hill. A great size room currently accommodating a table which easily seats 10. Right into the study or play room which overlooks the rear garden.

This room has a window to the front and door out into the rear garden. Right into the utility room with space for appliances, storage cupboards, sink and oil fired boiler for the central heating. Lastly, back through to the hall and straight on into the drawing room. A lovely sized room with windows to the front and rear, door out into the garden and an attractive Bath stone fireplace with a 'Burley' room sealed wood burning stove. Ok that is downstairs, let's go up.

Onto the generous landing with airing cupboard. The master bedroom is a handsome double with window overlooking open fields to the rear, left into the dressing room with large built in wardrobes and left again into the en-suite shower room. Back onto the landing and right into the third bedroom, a good double with built in wardrobes. Over the landing into the family bathroom with shower. The fifth bedroom is next, a single enjoying a lovely view to the rear. Back onto the main landing with window to the front and right into the fourth bedroom. Again a double with space for wardrobes and one of the best views of Kings Play Hill. The guest bedroom is next, with wide windows to the rear, built in wardrobes and door left into the ensuite shower room. Finally into the family room or hobby room. I doubt anyone would not be impressed when opening the door, a surprisingly large and high room with windows to the rear. Currently used as a library and exercise room with so much space you will be spoilt for choice!
