House For Sale £975,000
A 4 bedroom farmhouse with outstanding countryside views, stables and a yard, plus a range of useful outbuilding offering great potential. In all 11.7 Acres.
'Hitchfield Farm' & 'Hitchfield Cottage' are set on the edge of the sought after village of Bratton and have been owned by one family for over 70 years! Formerly two cottages and a dairy farm that are believed to be part of the Longleat Estate, they were converted into one larger family home back in 2006. However, with two staircases and two kitchens still remaining they could be easily split once again if so desired. Internally the cottages between them have four good sized bedrooms complemented by a modern bathroom and separate shower room. All the bedrooms enjoy panoramic views. The main kitchen has been refitted and benefits from an integrated dish washer and oven. An opening from the kitchen leads into a family room and there are two further cosy reception rooms plus two generous interconnecting conservatories to the rear elevation. Further plus points are double glazed windows and all mains services including gas.
Outside the property has a good sized garden to the left side of the home with apple and cherry trees and a large vegetable patch, as well as an east facing rear garden that enjoys complete privacy and is laid to lawn with additional decking. The views over the rear paddock and beyond up to the hills are incredible. Electric gates to the right side of the house open through to a large yard with two brick outbuildings plus a range of further useful outbuildings providing garaging and storage. From this yard a gate opens into a second yard and a former milking barn, 3 stables, a tack room and a most impressive 45ft vaulted hay barn (with light and power). We believe there is huge potential to convert these barns (subject to the relevant consents). To the side of the great barn is a gated access into the wonderful paddock which has water laid on.
Situation
The property occupies a very pleasant position on the edge of the village with incredible rural views towards Steeple Ashton to the front and up the Westbury Downs to the rear. There is great outriding as well as delightful walks right on the doorstep including fabulous ones alongside the famous Westbury White Horse. The village is well served by amenities including a primary school, a public house, post office/general store, two churches, a dispensing gp and a Pre-school. The neighbouring town of Westbury is only three miles distance with town centre shopping and most importantly this has a main line railway station with services to London Paddington and Waterloo making this an ideal place to live in with an easy commute up to London. The large towns of Devizes, Trowbridge, Chippenham, Salisbury, Swindon and Bath are all within a thirty mile radius.
