Wayside House is an impressive natural stone detached house rurally located on the edge of the village of Christian Malford backing onto open fields. Individually designed and built by the present owners, the property was constructed in 2018 with the utmost care and attention to detail which was recognised by Wiltshire LABC who nominated the property for the West of England Building Excellence Award in 2019 within the Best Individual New Home category. The property boasts high specification finishes including an air source heat pump system, a 3-zone underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, and electric underfloor heating within the first floor bathrooms.
