Seller Insight:

What is your favourite room in the house and why?

In the Winter when it’s cold and miserable outside we love to be in the sitting room watching the logs burning in the fire. It’s so cosy and comforting. A pot of tea and some buttered crumpets make for perfection.

In the Summer it’s the kitchen/conservatory. It’s such a sociable space with a lovely view over the garden. When weather allows, we move out through the glass kitchen doors onto the patio to eat.

Who do you think will be the ideal new owner?

The ideal next owner would be retired or a young couple. The village has an amazing social hub and the pub is brilliant.

What do you love most and why?

The house is so welcoming. The first time we walked through the door we felt like we belonged here. The thatch is amazing. When the rain is hammering down outside you can’t hear a thing which makes for a good night’s sleep. We always feel very lucky coming home to such a beautiful and historical cottage. It wraps itself around you and feels very safe. Although we’re in the centre of the village the garden is private and a real sanctuary.

What do you love about the local community?

The community is second to none. Our neighbours are totally brilliant and there is something for everyone in the village. e.g. Community shop, allotments, church coffee mornings, children’s nursery, junior school, a community minded pub with beautiful floral displays, garden club, craft club, table tennis, Pilates, canal walks, to name but a few. We also have a lovely play park and incredible walking and cycle trails. The pavilion takes part in Open Studio days for art lovers and there are many amazing artists in the village. Christmas time is magical - the church is decorated with greenery and candlelight and looks beautiful, carol singing around the village is accompanied by Santa on his sleigh. This year the village fete is being held on 19th July. An incredible day is planned.

How easy is it to commute from here?

Bath and Salisbury are both an hour’s drive away and the train from Pewsey takes an hour to London Paddington.

What made you choose this property over others?

We feel this property chose us. From the moment we stepped inside it felt like home. We fell in love with the Pewsey Vale and Wiltshire. It feels rather lost in time and everyone is so friendly and helpful, like the villages we grew up in as children.
