The cottage has undergone refurbishment by its current owner and is beautifully presented throughout. It has maintained its period features with modern touches, exposed beams and an abundance of character and charm. You enter into a spacious boot room, useful for getting rid of those mucky wellies after countryside walks, and then into a very inviting lounge/dining room, triple aspect, so full of light with impressive inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove set into the chimney breast with tiled floor. This leads into the snug, which also includes inglenook fireplace and wood burner. The fireplace still has the recesses which many years ago would have been where they baked bread and the wall hatch in the snug still exists where bread went to prove. There is a door from the snug into a very useful office or storage room, and French doors that lead to the front courtyard. Down a few steps takes you in to a good size breakfast room, with a back door into the garden. The newly fitted cottage kitchen still has a large fireplace with ample cupboard spaces and includes integrated dishwasher, washing machine, a free-standing fridge/freezer, and tumble dryer, and hob with double ovens with built in microwave.
Upstairs, you will find large master bedroom which leads on to the second double bedroom with built in storage and an ensuite shower room. Across the landing, you will find the bathroom with separate shower and roll top bath. Off the corridor, there is another large double bedroom with useful wardrobe space and storage in the eaves.
The house is accessed turning off the road and up the gravelled driveway, where there is parking for three cars, and also a very pretty, private courtyard garden out front.
Through the arched iron gate, a very delightful enclosed West facing private garden with apple tree and mature borders filled with perennial flowers. A haven for birds, butterflies and other wildlife. Stepping stones lead you up to the garden office, recently renovated and could be a very useful fourth bedroom. It has French doors to its own sun deck, to enjoy the peace and tranquility of village life. It has electric and heating with superfast broadband.
Pheasant cottage, whilst being set back from the road is in the heart of the village close to the popular Royal Oak pub which has themed nights. A short walk to the canal bridge, and lovely countryside walks (including the ancient Savernake Forest) and only a 10 minute drive to the market town of Marlborough, with access to all the amenities. Pewsey train station is 10 minutes away for a 1 hour ride to London.
