Rowde, Devizes, Wiltshire, SN10 1SY

Rainbows End is a beautifully presented, detached, three-bedroom cottage-style home with extensive equestrian facilities nestled in the heart of the Wiltshire countryside, with fabulous far-reaching views.

The house has been extended and updated by the current owners to create a wonderful family home. With further scope for extension, should you require more space (STP). 

The L-shaped living/dining room is light and spacious, creating a great family or entertaining space. The double-sided inglenook fireplaces, one with working log burner, add a real warmth to the space. 

There is a conservatory and study that lead directly off the living room which all benefit from uninterrupted views of the arena and paddock. The kitchen leads off the dining room and has views over the rear garden. A working Rayburn, which was replaced 2 years ago, is responsible for the heating and water for the original house, whilst a new combi boiler feeds the heating and water for the extension and is housed in the utility room. There is also the benefit of a downstairs bathroom. 

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has dual aspects with views over the stables, school, and paddock. With a shower room ensuite and built in wardrobes. There are two further double bedrooms and a family shower room. 

Outside the house is surrounded by private gardens with mature trees, shrubs, raised beds and fruit trees, with a large area laid to lawn. There is a double garage with personal door access straight from the garden and two electric doors leading to generous driveway parking. 

At the bottom of the garden a gate leads to hard standing with an open hay barn, tack room, three large stables and a double five bar gated area suitable for horse boxes. 

From the stables there is access to a sand and fibre turn out area with drainage in-turn leading the 60 x 20 meter sand & rubber school arena again with drainage to ensure it is usable all year round. A five-bar gate provides access to the 10-acre paddock which has a second access point from the shared lane to the right of the property for tractors. 

There is also a fully secure orchard with hard standing, a double open tractor barn, open hay barn, additional storage barn and of course fruit trees and mature hedging. 

A truly fantastic home with high quality equestrian facilities, a must see.
