The Red House is a charming Grade II Listed detached house with a spectacular garden, dating from 1778, set within the picturesque village of Lacock. A landmark property within the village, The Red House is situated at eastern end of Church Street, across from the Church of St Cyriac, in the centre of the village and has an instantly recognisable red brick elevation, with stone dressings beneath a gabled clay tile roof.

Now in need of modernisation, the property is a wonderful opportunity for an incoming buyer to create their long term family home. Upon entering The Red House one is immediately struck by the historic charm of the property. A wealth of period features including original floors, beamed ceilings and stone fireplaces enhance the period charm. The house is entered via a welcoming reception hall which is open to the dining room with a delightful stone fireplace, as well as the staircase to the first floor and a view through the house to the large garden beyond. The ground floor provides a number of reception rooms, including a drawing room with dual front and rear aspect, dining room and a family room. The kitchen/breakfast room leads from the family room with adjacent utility room. The ground floor also provides a large shower room.

The first floor offers three large bedrooms and three bathrooms (one en suite), with the principal bedroom suite particularly generous with dressing room, walk in wardrobe and en suite bathroom. Bedroom three is currently utilised as a self contained unit, with its own reception room and en suite bathroom. The second floor provides further excellent accommodation, with three large bedrooms and a further attic/store room. The proportions throughout the property are excellent, with an abundance of natural light and attractive views of either the lovely village scenery, or the marvellous garden behind.

Outside

The garden is quite spectacular and a rarity for a village house. Set in almost an acre, the garden offers something for every interest.

Beyond is a lawned garden flanked by stone walls, clipped hedges and mature flower beds.

A pretty wooden bridge leads over the brook to the rear of the garden across to an additional area of meadow garden. This delightful section of garden adjoins paddocks with mature trees providing privacy and a picturesque summer house.

The property has the benefit of significant outbuildings, including a large double garage and workshop, which is accessed to the side of the property on Nethercote Hill. A further garden store is attached to this buildings, accessed from the garden.
