Woodrow Road, Forest, Wiltshire, SN12

Measuring almost 2500 square feet of thoughtfully designed accommodation, and attached to a neighbour only by one single-storey room, the interior of Withy Barn is perfectly tailored for modern and highly private living. The living spaces exude warmth and elegance beginning with a 28-foot living room that features an impressive brick-built Inglenook fireplace complete with an inset log burner. This leads into the fully equipped large home office/fourth bedroom, which is enhanced by double French doors which seamlessly connect the serene courtyard garden. The spacious reception hall / dining room enjoys tall vaulted ceilings which give a welcomed feeling of space, light and grandeur, benefitting from French doors that flow effortlessly into the modern kitchen / breakfast room. This sleek kitchen / breakfast room showcases a stunning island feature that easily seats four, coming complete with fully integrated appliances inclusive of a fridge freezer, a dishwasher, two 'Neff' ovens, a hob with an extractor fan overhead, and a built in microwave, further to the abundance of storage within the plentiful 'soft-close' cupboards drawers. Further bonuses include high-quality solid worktops, under-counter lighting, a water softener, and access through to a handy separate utility room, as well as to a useful cloakroom, and a boot/dog room which ensures that the level of practicality matches the style.

Upstairs the impressive galleried landing leads to the luxurious master suite which comes complete with a private bathroom that sports a separate large rainfall shower, and a dressing room with a walk in wardrobe. Additionally, there are 2 generously sized double bedrooms with built in storage and a well-appointed family bathroom with airing cupboard. Several of the rooms within this delightful link-detached barn conversion enjoy a lovely leafy outlook from this enviable and well-connected countryside position.

Complementing the living spaces, Withy Barn features a large integral double garage offering ample storage and further space, power, and plumbing for additional appliances, further to the generous amounts of parking on the level gated and gravel driveway. There is a five stable block in situ, as well as a hay / feed barn and a fully insulated workshop and tractor / tool store, which benefits from electricity, water, and security lighting. With the right approach and application, there is potential on offer for these stable buildings to be converted to serve a different purpose. The outside offers a secure private quarter acre south facing formal garden with trees and flower beds and a secret garden-great for the BBQ-and featuring an attractive fully equipped summer house with power, heating and wifi, which is fully insulated-it is currently used as a garden office studio. The current owners have enjoyed twenty years living in this property and have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the fantastic community, which shall be greatly missed! 

( perhaps you could add a footnote that there is an additional  4 acres ( approx) 500 metres up the road, which I we currently rent which would be available for rental or purchase by separate negotiation.

There is also a range of particularly good schools in and around Melksham including state and private education. For those who prefer an active lifestyle there are several pleasant countryside walking routes situated close to the doorstep, as well as a bustling sports community to get involved in.
