House For Sale £1,200,000
Fine & Country Marlborough and Devizes are delighted to present this substantial 6 bedroom home in the popular village of Chiseldon.
Little Acre is situated on Slipper Lane, a quiet no-through road in the village of Chiseldon. Lying within the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Chiseldon is surrounded by some of Wiltshire’s most stunning countryside. This substantial family home has been the subject of numerous extensions and modification by the current owners to offer spacious and well-presented interiors and flexible accommodation that could be ideal for multi-generational living.
Chiseldon itself boasts 2 pubs, village shop, newsagents, primary school and doctors’ surgery amongst its many amenities. It’s conveniently located for travel as junctions 15 and 16 of the M4 are close at hand. Swindon railway station is approximately 6 miles away and provides direct train links to London Paddington in under an hour, and Bristol in under 40 minutes.
The attention to detail in the work carried out at Little Acre is clear to see. Large open spaces such as the vast glass-roofed dining room at the centre of the home are complemented by well-thought through kitchen space, with excellent provisions for storage. One side of the house can function independently as an annexe and a range of configurations are possible including use of several of the rooms as home offices.
