Set in the heart of Wootton Rivers, this substantial four-bedroom thatched cottage combines character features with generous living space across 2,652 sq ft. The principal suite and three further double bedrooms sit above comfortable reception rooms, a conservatory and a well-equipped kitchen with separate utility. The sizeable garage includes a first-floor office/workshop — ideal for home working or hobbies — and there’s ample driveway parking.
Outside, a south-facing rear garden offers established flower beds, a pond, summer house, two decking areas and a productive vegetable/fruit plot with greenhouse. The village sits in the North Wessex Downs AONB with canal-side walks and quick access to Marlborough and Pewsey; schools rated Good to Outstanding are within easy reach, making this appealing for families.
Practical points are straightforward: an oil-fired boiler was fitted in 2023 and the rangemaster uses bottled gas. The property is freehold with mains water, electricity and drainage. Note the village has fibre to the cabinet but typical in-property broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is only average. There is a medium flood risk and thatch/stone construction will require specialist maintenance and periodic inspection.
Overall, this home suits buyers seeking character and space on a large plot in a picturesque village, who are comfortable with ongoing upkeep typical of thatched properties and slower digital connectivity.
