House For Sale £1,850,000
The entrance hall is light and bright and leads into a large inner hall with tiled flooring. There are stairs on both sides and doors into the ground floor living spaces - all with Sisal carpeting. There is a family office and generous living room with fireplace and double-aspect windows, including French doors onto one of the garden patios. At the other side of the hall, a sitting room (also with fireplace and double-aspect windows), has ceiling beams that reveal its heritage. This room leads to the study, with shelving, a log burner and stone mullion windows; approximately 50 percent of the windows in the house have been replaced with Heritage slimline double-glazing, and the remaining original windows restored.
The heart of the home, the kitchen/dining room, has large stone floor tiles, oak ceiling beams, windows and doors on two sides of this room and a large Inglenook fireplace with log burner. There are contemporary units, an eco-electric Aga, as well as a standard oven and hob, and all the usual fitted white goods. A generous utility room doubles as a cloakroom, with plenty of storage for outdoor wear.
The hall has a set of stairs leading up to a bedroom with vaulted ceilings and wooden beams. The main central stairs lead to the first floor where there are four further bedrooms, two with their own bathrooms, a family bathroom and a separate WC. The rooms all have plenty of built in storage/wardrobes and the bathrooms are all modern with quality fittings and natural light. On the second floor there is a vaulted ceiling bedroom (making six in total) with the old roof beams visible.
The house is approached via electric gates to a front courtyard with space for several cars, with the main farmhouse on one side, the double garage (with electric car charging capacity) and Coach House on the other and the carport and workshops beyond. The Coach House annex has its own gas boiler and central heating system, a kitchenette, shower room and WC on the ground floor, and a living space and bedroom on the first.
The gardens and grounds are mostly laid to lawn, edged with lavender beds and a mixed orchard in one corner, with the garden boundaries formed from estate fencing or hedging with estate gates giving direct access to the paddocks. There's a kitchen garden with raised beds, a wooden-decked outdoor lounge area, and a paved patio that wraps around two sides of the house with two dining areas: One on the south-facing side under an oak Pergola with heating and the other facing west.
The current owners rent the three adjoining paddocks under a separate agreement and these are available for rent by the new owners by separate negotiation.
The Old Farmhouse is a Grade II listed property and is one of the original settlements in Neston with parts dating from the early 13th Century. The main farmhouse is 16th Century and the north wing was three workers cottages which were incorporated into the main house in the 18th Century, along with the adjoining Barn.
Situated between Chippenham and Bath, at the south-western edge of the Cotswolds, Neston is a small village just two miles from the market town of Corsham with a village pub a gym and a primary school, all within a five minute walk of The Old Farmhouse. Countryside walks can be enjoyed from the front door.
