A comfortable house bursting with character, it is laid out over three floors, with its main living areas on the ground floor and six bedrooms, one en suite, and bathrooms on the first and second floors. 'The layout is excellent, something hugely enhanced by the stunning extension which contains the kitchen and dining area. The design is such that it feels seamless it doesn't take away from the original character at all, if anything it enhances it,' explain the owners. Steeple Ashton is a thriving village with a multi-award-winning community shop and a recently refurbished pub The Longs both within walking distance from the front door. There is a well-regarded primary school in nearby Keevil, and further schools are available in the surrounding villages and Trowbridge.

This charming Grade II listed former hall house, a typical English thatched cottage set in bucolic English countryside surrounded by fields and ancient snowdrop and bluebell woods, is a traditional yet modernised four-bedroom home dating to circa 16th century. Laid out over two floors, it boasts four bedrooms, versatile living space and stunning gardens with terraces, a small fruit orchard and a pond encircled by grasses and irises, a variety of acers, rhododendrons, and azaleas.

In the wider context it lies midway between the Wiltshire towns of Chippenham and Devizes with Bath and Marlborough only a short drive away. Direct trains from Chippenham to London take an average of one hour and fifteen minutes. 'We wanted somewhere quiet, in sync with nature, private and with enough space for us to enjoy gardening and entertaining without disturbing neighbours yet close enough to amenities so as not to feel isolated. The Old Cottage fulfilled all of these requirements, and more,' say David and Deborah, who have lived here for twenty-four years. 'Living here is a delight all-year-round. During hot summers, the thatch regulates the house so that it remains cool and the garden really comes alive. When it snows, complete silence descends on the valley and the only sign of life are animal tracks.' 'The Old Cottage is set in exquisite countryside with red kites wheeling overhead, wrens nesting in the piggery in spring and deer wandering up the road. Dog walks can be through forests of pine and along unpolluted streams. It is a complete unadulterated idyll.''Just a mile away from the A353 once one enters down the single-track lane you feel a million years away from the 21st century.''There are three local farm shops, one at the end of the road. The local vegetables grown on Greensand are prized throughout London restaurants and the high-end butchers, Walter Rose, supplies many of the capital's top eateries.' 'We have neighbours on both sides one is half a mile down a leafy lane whilst the other is adjacent to us. The location tends to attract people who are private however, should help be required, everyone assists.''There are excellent schools, both state and independent, nearby. St Mary's and St Margarets at Calne are less than five miles away and Dauntseys, Notton House Academy, Stonar and Marlborough College are all less than twelve miles away.'Additional InformationPostcode: SN15 2ENLocal Authority: WiltshireCouncil Tax Band: GServices: Mains electricity and water.
