Spacious neo‑Georgian house with annex, large garden and far-reaching Wiltshire views — ideal for family life..
Neo‑Georgian detached house over 3,000 sq ft with high ceilings and generous rooms
Summerdown House is a substantial neo‑Georgian detached family home set on a very large, secluded plot with mature gardens and far-reaching views towards the White Horse on Milk Hill. The principal house offers generous, well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings, including a triple-aspect principal suite, formal reception rooms and a fitted eat-in kitchen that opens to a glazed dining room. The property sits within the North Wessex Downs AONB and benefits from a gated driveway and detached double garage with a part-converted annex.
The detached annexe provides flexible accommodation (kitchenette, shower room, reception room and two first-floor bedrooms) suitable for guests, multi-generational living or short-term let income, though some areas are arranged for temporary use. There is lapsed planning permission (application 19/01247/FUL) for a single-storey rear extension to create a larger kitchen/breakfast room, offering clear potential to update and enlarge the living space subject to fresh consent.
Buyers should note a few material factors: heating is oil‑fired with boiler and radiators and the energy rating is E; broadband speeds are very slow in this rural location; council tax is in the higher bands and running costs should be considered. The property is largely well maintained but presents sensible opportunity for modernisation and energy upgrades to improve efficiency and connection speeds.
For families seeking space, privacy and country character within easy reach of Pewsey and Marlborough, Summerdown House combines classic style, versatile accommodation and strong rural outlooks. Viewings will suit those who prioritise countryside living and who are comfortable planning modest refurbishments or improvements to utilities and connectivity.
