Lower Easton Piercy, Kington St. Michael, Chippenham, Wiltshire SN14

Dating from 1798, The Farm is an elegant three storey farmhouse approached via a sweeping Cotswold stone driveway. Set amidst extensive lawned gardens, the house features a striking Cotswold stone and Roman tiled roof and enjoys a peaceful and private setting. The front door opens into a welcoming hallway laid with seagrass flooring, leading to a superb drawing room with a decorative arched fireplace housing a log burner and French doors opening onto a flagstone terrace with pond, enjoying views across the gardens beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with painted cabinetry complemented by a Neptune island, together with an oil fired Aga, open fireplace, travertine flooring and a range of integrated appliances. Adjoining is a large boot room and utility room with WC, wine fridge and additional storage. At the opposite end of the house is a handsome dual aspect dining room with open fireplace and views across the surrounding countryside, from which oak doors lead into a charming library and sitting room, creating a cosy yet light filled reception space.

The principal bedroom suite occupies the first floor and offers fitted wardrobes, a west facing outlook and an ensuite bathroom with travertine flooring and a large rainfall shower. A guest suite benefits from a dressing room and ensuite bathroom, while two further double bedrooms share a well appointed family bathroom. The second floor provides two additional double bedrooms set within the eaves, both with ensuite bathrooms.

The gardens and grounds have been thoughtfully and beautifully developed, with specimen trees providing year round interest and seasonal colour. Manicured lawns are framed by box and beech hedging, lending structure and privacy, while the land extends to just under eight acres and includes a well drained paddock suitable for year round grazing. The property also benefits from a heated swimming pool with pool house, together with a walled garden featuring a greenhouse and raised beds, ideal for growing fruit and vegetables.

An old barn has been skilfully converted into a striking music room, used for recitals and community events and enjoying far reaching views across the gardens, with further potential to develop the remaining barn space currently used for storage. At the entrance to the property is a charming one bedroom garden lodge, currently used as a groom’s cottage and rented out, offering flexible ancillary accommodation. Additional amenities include generous off road parking, four stables and a single garage currently used for storage.

The Farm offers a rare opportunity to acquire a highly complete country property combining privacy, amenity and accessibility.
