Description
A Generous and Beautifully Appointed 4-Bedroom Family Home in a Delightful Semi-Rural Setting
This spacious and well-presented four double bedroom home offers a superb blend of comfort, space, and high-quality finishes, ideally suited for modern family living. Nestled in a desirable location with open fields to the rear, it enjoys stunning views and access to scenic walks and a nearby cricket field and play area in Beanacre.
As you enter the property, a wide and welcoming tiled hallway leads to versatile living spaces and with its galleried staircase sets the tone of what is to come with this excellent home. To one side a large study or playroom provides flexibility for growing families or those working from home. A huge bonus and there's enough space for 2 desks. The classically designed sitting room features a charming fireplace with an inset wood burner and French doors opening onto the garden, creating a warm and inviting retreat. Additional storage and shelving have been built in to the side of the fireplace, giving a period feel and classic charm. Double doors lead into a spacious dining room, which flows seamlessly into the exceptional kitchen/breakfast room. This space is a true highlight, boasting a feature island unit, granite worktops over classic shaker-style cabinetry, a built-in larder, and a Rangemaster oven—perfect for entertaining or family meals. A spacious utility room offers further storage, a Belfast sink and houses space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, with access to the garden and a downstairs WC.
The principal bedroom is a true sanctuary, complete with a dedicated dressing area featuring his and hers built-in wardrobes and a luxurious hotel-style en suite shower room. This stylish en suite includes twin vanity units with sinks, sleek fittings, and a generous walk-in shower. For convenience the en suite also benefits from motion sensitive LED strip lights - really handy in the dark as they provide automatic low level lighting. Also the twin mirror are also a high end finish where switching them on and off just requires a wave of your hand!
However, to top all that, waking up to the exceptional views across the fields behind the property is a real treat! Three further double bedrooms offer excellent accommodation, with bedrooms two and three also benefiting from built-in wardrobes. The main family bathroom is equally impressive—generously sized and finished to a high standard with a separate shower cubicle, a bath, and ample storage within modern vanity units.
Outside, the generous wraparound garden is a standout feature, with a wide lawn bordered by mature shrubs and flowerbeds to the side, and a broad patio at the rear with raised beds and a glass-roofed Verandah—perfect for sheltered outdoor dining. A real blend of adult entertaining space, relaxation and still room for the kids to play. An additional tucked-away area provides practical space for a shed, bins, and a washing line.
A double garage and wide gravel driveway offer parking for several vehicles, while a front garden filled with established planting adds further charm. With uninterrupted views over fields to the rear and easy access to open countryside, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful, semi-rural living within easy reach of local amenities.
In addition, the roof houses an array of solar panels with an addition of a Battery Storage solution that stores the solar produced to use at night - meaning that for large parts of the year you can be self sufficient for electricity, The roof space is of an excellent height and offers great storage but also potential for further expansion upwards.
The location of Westlands Lane is perfect for easy access to the A350, onwards to the M4 and Bristol/Bath/London areas. With rail stations at both Melksham and Chippenham within a short distance, commuting can be easily achieved and if the bus is more your style, then there are stops close by. Despite all the convenience, the location is also set close to a myriad of countryside walks, and the village of Whitley and Shaw (just over a mile away). Here you will find the popular Shaw Primary School, local churches, a community-led village shop, Golf and cricket club, a cycle shop, and the ever-popular Pear Tree Inn. Beechfield House is within walking distance as well if you fancy an afternoon tea or a day at the spa. Melksham and its ever-expanding range of independent shops is within a couple of miles and the picturesque town of Corsham is only 4 miles away. Just around the corner, step back in time at the National Trust village of Lacock. So much to do and all so close!
