7 bed detached house for sale

Vicarage Lane, Upavon, Pewsey, Wiltshire SN9

Cleeve House is a spacious family house of about 5,552 sq ft that has been well maintained by the current owners. In 2001, the property underwent major renovation work, which included the addition of a large kitchen.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors, creating considerable flexibility for family and guests. In addition, there are large wine cellars for good storage.

The two-bedroom cottage provides excellent guest or family accommodation but could also be used to provide income.

The grounds, which extend to about 2.33 acres, are sufficiently big to comfortably accommodate a swimming pool and tennis court, subject to the relevant consent.

A gravelled driveway leads up to a courtyard, which provides ample parking. Several useful outbuildings for storage, including a heated dog kennel and a log store, are located here. There is also a children's play area with a tree house and trampoline.

Cleeve House has a commanding position overlooking its garden. The delightful gardens are south-facing and incredibly private. They are mainly laid to lawns with various mature trees and shrubs. There is an orchard containing apple, pear and Victoria plum trees.

A flagged terrace on the house's western side provides wonderful sheltered outdoor entertaining space and takes advantage of the views.

Cleeve House is an impressive property situated in a Conservation Area on the edge of Upavon, at the end of a no-through lane, overlooking beautiful countryside.

Upavon has good local facilities, including two pubs, a shop/post office, a village hall, hairdressers and a golf club. There is also a doctor's surgery. More extensive facilities are available in the market towns of Marlborough and Devizes. The historic cities of Bath and Salisbury are nearby, as are the larger commercial centres of Swindon, Andover and Newbury.

The property is well placed for many well-regarded schools in the area, such as St Francis, Dauntseys, Marlborough College and St Mary's, Calne. Nearby rights of way provide access to the lovely surrounding downland, and the nearby River Avon provides attractive chalk fishing.
