Property description
'Milton House' is a handsome double fronted character home, with origins believed to date back some 300 years. This endearing home is set in a delightful rural position within the sought after village of West Lavington, that lies on the edge of Salisbury Plain. Extended by the current owners in 2009, the property now enjoys a generous and well presented layout of over 2100sqft, combined with a wonderful private garden, parking for numerous cars (via a large gated 2 separate entrance driveway), plus a detached double garage.
This simply lovely family home is definitely worth seeing in person at the earliest opportunity.
Internally, a light entrance hall with limestone flooring, opens off to the left into a gorgeous drawing room with a painted ceiling beam and feature open fireplace. To the right of the hall is a formal dining room with lots of character including an exposed brick fireplace and beam. At the back of the house, in the extension, is a stunning handmade kitchen/breakfast room that is open plan into a large triple aspect family room- a wonderful eating and entertaining space. The kitchen/breakfast rooms have vaulted ceilings with skylights, tiled flooring and a range of fitted painted units with oak worktops and breakfast bar, plus spaces for both a Range style cooker and American style fridge/freezer (available by negotiation). Set off the kitchen is a bespoke utility and cloakroom. On the 1st floor, there are 4 bedrooms (all with fitted wardrobes), plus a stylish refitted family bathroom with wooden panelled walls, a walk-in double width shower and separate bath. The main bedroom is dual aspect with its own en suite shower room. Outside, the rear garden enjoys complete privacy and has various seating areas set out over a few tiers with a large expanse of lawn at the top providing perfect space for kids to kick a ball around. In addition the new owners would co-own the large field to the left of the property (thereby protecting the views and privacy).
Situation
The property occupies a pleasant position just on the edge of the village of West Lavington, with fabulous walks and open countryside right on the doorstep. Local amenities include a local store/Post Office, a public house, primary and comprehensive schools, a church and a playing field. The historic market town of Devizes is approximately three miles to the west providing a more comprehensive range of shopping, transport and leisure facilities, schools for all ages and a thriving weekly market. The major centres of Bath, Swindon and Salisbury are all within a thirty mile radius. The renowned private school Dauntsey’s is in the village itself and Marlborough College and St Marys Calne are easily accessible. Communications in the area are excellent with train services to London Paddington from Pewsey, Chippenham 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.
