Detached house for sale in Melksham SN12, 4 Bedroom

Located adjacent to the stunning Great Chalfield Manor, one turns right along the lane which is home to just four homes and continues into a bridle path. This idyllic location is surrounded by mature trees and fields. A private drive leads
to a gravelled parking area. A wooden gate opens up into the most delightful courtyard with cobbled stones, a detached outbuilding with large oak doors and Cotswold stone tiled roof. There is a seating area and climbing plants near the entrance of the house. A wonderful and welcoming entrance. Built in 1904 as part of the Great Chalfield estate, this handsome Arts and Crafts style home is of stone construction under a pan tiled roof with stone mullion windows. As the entrance is now via the back of the house, the original entrance hall is more of a library which leads to the drawing room with a super stone mullion bay window to the side and a central wood burning stove. The adjacent cosy sitting room also benefits from a pleasant dual aspect and wood burning stove. At the heart of the house is the kitchen and living area. A tall dresser and further handmade units provide plenty of storage, a two oven Aga keeps it warm in the winter and the terracotta tiled floor keeps it cool in the summer. A walk-in pantry is a great addition, as are the utility room and cloakroom. Of particular note for those who work from home or require a ground floor bedroom is the studio, a single storey building with exposed a-frame beams and windows and a door opening out to the pretty courtyard.
Up on the first floor the landing leads to four double bedrooms, all with pleasant views but especially from the two at the rear of the house which overlook the flower garden and beyond to
the neighbouring field. There is a separate shower room and a spacious family bathroom also with wonderful views to the front.
