A modern characterful five-bedroom family home set in extensive landscaped gardens.
Dauntsey Fields Farm was built in 2004 by a renowned local developer, yet has the charm and character of a much older house: exposed brick detail, vaulted ceilings with oak beams, stone and wood floors and a stunning brick fireplace provide a cosy, country feel.
This is complemented by an elegant and traditional décor scheme, adding a neutral colour scheme highlighted with pops of heritage colour, and a stunning farmhouse-style kitchen with a fabulous butcher’s block island and a coveted AGA. Great care and attention has been taken over the house, inside and out, with a high level of attention to detail.
The light-filled rooms feel fantastically spacious, and large windows providing excellent natural light while looking out over the surrounding farmland and the house’s own beautifully landscaped gardens. The entire ground floor is warmed by underfloor heating while the sitting room has the added benefit of a charming wood-burning stove.
The ground floor is generously proportioned and has excellent flow, with the large reception spaces leading off a central hallway. The sitting room and games room are connected by double doors, creating a fabulous open plan space for entertaining, while the kitchen, dining and family room is also open plan and perfect for relaxed family meals. There is also a home office, cloakroom and a utility room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms on the first floor, including two en suite, plus a family bathroom; the second floor has two additional bedrooms and a separate shower room. All of the bedrooms are double size.
Outside
Dauntsey Fields Farm enjoys a fantastically private setting tucked away behind an imposing gated entrance (complete with intercom), with a long driveway winding up through park-like grounds to a large gravel parking area to the front of the house. Beautiful specimen trees dot the rolling grounds, and the front of the property has been planted with an impressive wisteria and rose beds.
The gardens to the side and rear are enclosed and include a secluded courtyard-style seating area, a number of terraces and a pergola, with a summerhouse perfectly placed to enjoy lovely views over the gardens.
The driveway continues alongside the house to a further generous parking area and a detached workshop with separate gated entrance from roadside, offering fantastic potential for a variety of uses. Additionally, there is planning permission for a second 75ft x 30ft garage/workshop.
There is an additional 20 acres of paddock adjoining the property which is available by separate negotiation.
