About this property
Set in an enviable position with direct access to the towpath of the Kennet and Avon canal, this idyllic spot is a great base for all manner of outdoor pursuits. Marvel at Caen Hill locks, a scheduled monument, or head into the centre of Devizes to pick up essential supplies and explore the medieval past of this bustling market town. Within 14 miles is ever poplular Bath, a world heritage site, where you can visit the Roman Baths, Spa or costume museum, to name but a few attractions, before stopping at one of the many eateries and shops. The charming village of Box is also within easy reach, plus Bradford on Avon, Chippenham and Lacock, which is home to an historic abbey and cloisters as well as picture postcard streets often used as a filming location. Adjacent to the owners home and attached to a similar property, privacy is assured in this carefully converted character barn. Once inside you'll be met by a striking open plan living space, complete with wood burner. The first of three bedrooms leads from this room, a twin with en suite shower room and WC. Also on the ground floor is a light and bright kitchen/diner, ideal for preparing leisurely meals whilst you look out over the terrace and grounds beyond. From the lounge a staircase rises to the first floor and a mezzanine style landing. The remaining bedrooms are set into the eaves, one of which boasts a striking vaulted window with views west towards the canal. Both bedrooms have an en suite bathroom and WC. Due to the position within the eaves there are some areas of restricted head height throughout the first floor, which only adds to its charm. French doors lead from the kitchen/diner onto a private, open terrace with uninterrupted views across the lawn surrounds towards the canal. Take a seat and enjoy a meal together or catch the sunset, whilst you enjoy a glass of something nice.
