Upper Farm is situated in the heart of the delightful unspoilt village of Milton Lilbourne on the edge of the Pewsey Vale, close to the Chalk Downs, with easy access to good schools and train services to London.

This charming period house is believed to date from the 17th century with attractive later additions. It has wisteria-clad brick elevations with a tiled roof and is surrounded by beautifully laid-out gardens with lawns and a wide variety of flowers, mature shrubs and trees. The panelled front door opens to a spacious entrance hall with a glazed door to the garden. The drawing room and sitting room both have fireplaces, with the latter flanked by arched-top alcoves and leading to a light-filled garden room. The dining room connects to the kitchen/breakfast room. A large boot room, butler’s pantry, cloakroom and boiler room complete the ground floor.

An attractive staircase rises from the hall to the landing. The principal bedroom suite includes a dressing room and bathroom. There are four further bedrooms, two accessed via a secondary staircase, and three bathrooms on the first floor. Two additional bedrooms are located on the second floor.

To the south of the house is a long thatched building with a single garage, wood and equipment stores. There is a garden machinery store, three stables, tack room and wine store. A large thatched dog kennel with a wire run completes the outbuildings.

The house is accessed via a short gravel drive from the village street. The garden is mainly to the east of the house, featuring herbaceous borders, dwarf hedges, and flowering cherries. Adjoining this garden and separated by a clipped beech hedge is a secluded lawned garden with a rose and honeysuckle-covered pergola. There's also a productive kitchen garden with a greenhouse. An avenue of crab apple trees leads to an area of woodland planted with spring bulbs.

To the north, fronting the village street, is an orchard with a wide variety of fruit trees. There is a tennis court, currently unused, and a swimming pool with airsource heating. Beyond, there are well-fenced, level paddocks (about 4.96 acres) providing excellent grazing.
