House For Sale £750,000
Discover the idyllic charm of 'Pear Tree Cottage'- a stunning detached 4-bedroom property that once featured on 'Escape To The Country.' Nestled in the desirable village of Chirton, in the desirable Pewsey Vale, this character-filled home boasts good living space, a beautifully rethatched exterior, and a large private west-facing garden.
This beautifully presented cottage is originally thought to date from around 1850 and was once used as the village post office. The property retains a wealth of character with period features including exposed beams, wooden latch doors and wall timbering, but has been fully modernised in recent years. It is in very good order and is tastefully decorated throughout. An entrance hall with flagstones from 'Artisans' opens off to a cloakroom and a handy utility room which houses the oil fired boiler. There are two flexible reception rooms- currently used as a study and a playroom that both feature engineered oak flooring and French doors to the garden. There is a dual aspect sitting room with a log burner and a generous kitchen / dining room with solid oak worktops and Artisans flagstones with under floor heating. It is well equipped with an electric 'Rangemaster' oven, integrated dish washer and microwave. On the first floor there are four bedrooms (3 doubles and 1 single), complemented by a modern refitted family bathroom with tiled flooring and under floor heating, a corner shower and roll top bath.
Outside the property benefits from a detached garage with light and power, driveway parking as well as an attractive cottage garden to the front. To the rear is a well established garden backing onto land belonging to the village school. An extended patio sun terrace has steps up to a large lawn, pear and plum trees, a shed and greenhouse. The cottage has wonderful countryside walks on the doorstep, is next to a popular primary school and within easy reach of commuter links. An early viewing is strongly recommended.
