House For Sale £1,250,000
**superb country home in delightful grounds** sought after village setting** 4 / 5 bedrooms & 5 reception rooms** retaining A wealth of character**
'Tyler's Cottage' is an incredibly spacious village home of immense character which is believed to date from 1535 and the days of the Tudors.
This handsome detached Grade II Listed property was been sympathetically extended by the current owner in the 1980s but still retains much of its original character with impressive Inglenook fireplaces, exposed wall timbering, original ceiling beams and flagstone flooring. Well-proportioned reception rooms are arranged around a charming entrance hall with a bespoke hardwood staircase that rises to the first floor. On the ground floor there are 5 reception rooms in total offering a great amount of flexibility- currently they are used as a music room, a formal dining room with open fireplace, a large snug, a 22ft dual aspect sitting room and a study. The study also has the benefit of a lift up to one of the first floor bedrooms and bathroom providing helpful support to any one with mobility issues. A stunning 27ft triple aspect kitchen features a range of handmade units with solid granite worktops and an oil fed 2 oven racing green aga. A separate utility and useful wet room completes the ground floor. On the first floor the layout currently provides 4 / 5 bedrooms- with a mezzanine bedroom accessed up stairs from one of the bedrooms (ideal space for teenagers). There are 2 'Jack & Jill' bathrooms alongside the main family bathroom.
Outside, the house is approached through double gates onto a sweeping bricked driveway which leads up to a coach house which is a double garage and also houses the biomass boiler. The immaculate partly walled gardens have been open to the public on a number of occasions and feature a wonderful range of mature specimen trees, well tended lawns, a large brick-built pond, private eating/entertaining outdoor areas and a Hartley Botanical greenhouse.
Situation
The house is beautifully located within the heart of the picturesque village of Steeple Ashton, with splendid views of the historic and beautiful St Mary's church. The village has a thriving community providing playing fields, a public house/shop/post office. The village has been voted the best kept village in Wiltshire on numerous occasions. The delightful villages of Edington and Keevil are also close by. The historic market towns of Devizes, Trowbridge, Melksham and Chippenham and the cities of Bath and Salisbury are all within a 30 mile radius. Dauntsey’s School, Marlborough College and St Mary's Calne are easily accessible. Communications in the area are excellent with train services to London Paddington from Chippenham, Pewsey and Westbury; fast road access to London and the West Country, Heathrow and Gatwick via the M4 to the north and the A303 to the south.
