Arguably one of the most impressive and uncompromising single-storey homes, occupying an elevated position, boasting the most stunning setting overlooking the River Avon and water meadows beyond and enjoying 150 metres of the river bank (with a right of access for the footpath) and associated fishing rights. The plot extends to approximately 3/4 acre in an excellent position in the popular village setting of Downton. With approximately 2000 sq ft of accommodation, this stunning residence has been the subject of a comprehensive programme of extension and internal remodelling with no expense spared, creating flexible and well-proportioned accommodations throughout. The undoubted highlight is the 30 ft open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room with extensive powder-coated anthracite aluminium quintet folding doors onto the elevated patio terrace capturing and capitalising on the stunning setting.

The remaining bedrooms are served by the contemporary family bathroom. There is also a sizeable utility room. To the front, the property provides parking for four cars on the permeable driveway, together with a double garage.
