Five Farthings is a substantial, characterful family home set in just under an acre of landscaped grounds in Collingbourne Kingston. Dating from the 1930s with sympathetic modern extensions, the house combines high ceilings, art-and-craft style windows and exposed beams with contemporary additions such as a vaulted kitchen/breakfast room and a glazed sun room. Practical energy features include a ground-source heat pump and 16 solar panels on the garage; the property holds an EPC C rating.
The versatile accommodation spans three floors: a generous entrance hall, four reception rooms including a sun room and dining room with bespoke cabinetry, a large kitchen/breakfast room with Aga and utility/pantry, and five bedrooms (two en-suite) with additional eaves storage on the top floor. The double garage includes a secure workshop with water and a large room above accessed via an external staircase, offering potential for office, studio or ancillary use subject to approvals.
Outdoors the mature, landscaped gardens extend to almost an acre with lawns, fruit trees, shaped borders, vegetable beds and a greenhouse. The driveway provides ample parking and leads to the garage/workshop. The village location offers a quiet, rural lifestyle with nearby amenities and good schooling options; Pewsey and Andover stations provide direct commuter routes to London.
Notable practical points: the property’s main heating uses an oil-fired boiler with radiators alongside the ground-source system; council tax is in Band G and described as fairly expensive. Broadband speeds are average. The top-floor bedrooms sit within eaves and have reduced head height, which may limit some uses without alteration.
