Carina Cottage is a rare Grade II listed thatched home in picturesque Urchfont, offering generous living space across a charming split-level layout. Exposed beams, two handsome fireplaces and a dual-aspect principal bedroom give the house strong period character while practical rooms — kitchen/breakfast, utility, study and workshop — suit modern family life. The plot is large with private driveway, double garage and a powered shed, plus views to the Pewsey Vale White Horse.
This property will particularly suit families or buyers seeking character and space in a well-served village with a good primary school, active community and easy access to nearby market towns. The layout is generous (approx. 2,096 sq ft reported) with flexible reception rooms and storage, making it straightforward to adapt rooms to home‑office or hobby use.
Buyers should note the Grade II listing: any alterations will be subject to listed‑building consent and can restrict changes and add to maintenance costs. The house uses oil-fired heating and has double glazing installed post-2002; heating and thatch maintenance are ongoing cost considerations. Broadband speeds are reported slow and mobile signal average — relevant for heavy home-workers.
Overall this is a substantial, characterful three-bedroom cottage offering historic charm, versatile accommodation and strong village location. It suits purchasers who value period features and rural views, and who are comfortable managing listed‑building obligations and the running costs associated with an oil-heated, thatched property.
