Set on the edge of Pewsey in the sought after hamlet of Knowle, this unique detached home enjoys one of those truly special Wiltshire settings that immediately makes you pause. Backing onto open fields belonging to Wiltshire Wildlife Trust, a designated Site of Specific Interest, with the most incredible far-reaching views across to Martinsell Hill, it offers a wonderful sense of space, privacy and countryside calm, while still being within easy reach of village life, and walking distance of the amenities in Pewsey. From the moment you arrive, the scale and presence of the property is immediately apparent. A generous driveway leads you to the front of the home, where an attractive oak framed porch creates a warm and welcoming first impression. Step inside and the entrance hall sets the tone beautifully, offering a practical and inviting space from which the accommodation flows. To one side of the hallway is a large and versatile reception room, perfect for modern family living. Whether used as a cosy snug, a formal dining room, a children’s playroom, a home office or even a downstairs bedroom, this is a room that can easily adapt as life changes. There are double doors at one end that open straight out to the garden. Next to this room, you will find a further reception room that is currently a large home office that could also be used as a downstairs bedroom. On the opposite side of the hall, the home opens into a fabulous open-plan living, kitchen and dining space, created by the current owners to make the very most of family life and entertaining. This is the real heart of the home, with a comfortable lounge area flowing into the kitchen and a generous central dining space large enough for a substantial table, making it ideal for everything from relaxed breakfasts to long Sunday lunches and gatherings with friends. The large kitchen is beautifully equipped with an abundance of cupboard space, granite worktops, an integrated double oven, Neff electric hob and a dishwasher, offering both style and practicality. From the kitchen window you look out over the garden and beyond. Just off the kitchen, the utility room provides valuable additional space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, along with a side door, making it especially useful for muddy boots, wet coats, dogs and day to day country living. A downstairs cloakroom is also conveniently located in the hallway, adding to the practicality of the ground floor. The layout of this home is wonderfully unique, with the main living room positioned on the first floor, giving it an almost upside-down feel. The reason for this becomes instantly clear the moment you step into the room. You are greeted by the most incredible, almost floor to ceiling views stretching straight across the fields behind and beyond to Martinsell Hill. Being triple aspect, it is a truly spectacular living space, flooded with natural light and designed to make the very most of the setting. Whether you are relaxing at the end of the day, entertaining friends, watching the seasons change or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this is a room that feels completely connected to the countryside around it. The views are not just a backdrop, they become part of everyday life. Also on the first floor, the sense of space continues with three really good-sized bedrooms, all with wardrobes, again offering really comfortable proportions, making this a wonderful home for a growing family or anyone needing flexible space for guests, hobbies or working from home. The principal bedroom is a fabulous size and enjoys a beautiful dual aspect outlook. With two windows looking out to the rear, this room makes the very most of the spectacular view across the fields and over towards Martinsell Hill. It is the kind of view you would never tire of waking up to. This bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes and a generous ensuite bathroom, complete with an exceptionally large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC, creating a lovely private retreat. The family bathroom is also located on the first floor and is beautifully practical for family life, with a large bath, separate walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC. One of the things that makes this home so special is the flexibility it offers. The main house already provides generous accommodation, but there is also a large detached building, which adds another exciting dimension. This detached building includes a double garage and a large storeroom, with external stairs leading up to the first floor. Here, dormer windows create a lovely studio style space, currently used with a lounge area, bedroom and shower room. There is also a balcony, perfectly positioned to enjoy that spectacular countryside view. The garage has been built with cavity walls, the same specification as the main house, and could be easily converted into a separate dwelling, subject to the relevant consents. Whether used for guests, older children, working from home, hobbies, a studio or simply additional space, this building gives the property a real sense of possibility. Outside, the garden wraps around the house, giving a lovely feeling of space and privacy. There is a good sized seating and entertaining area, along with a raised section running across the back of the house, designed to make the most of the incredible views beyond. It is easy to imagine summer evenings here, doors open, friends and family gathered together, children playing, dogs exploring and that beautiful Wiltshire countryside as your backdrop. Another wonderful feature is the property’s own gate leading directly into the fields behind. For anyone with dogs, children, or simply a love of walking, this is a real lifestyle bonus, giving you instant access to some of the most spectacular countryside walks right from your back garden. To the front, there is a generous driveway providing parking for a number of cars, adding to the practicality of this impressive home. This is a property that offers so much more than just space. It offers flexibility, lifestyle, countryside views, room to grow and that rare feeling of being somewhere truly special. If you are looking for a unique detached home in a beautiful edge-of-village setting, with incredible views, versatile accommodation and direct access to the countryside, this home in Knowle could be the one for you. Area - Pewsey is a wonderfully well connected Wiltshire village, sitting in the heart of the beautiful Pewsey Vale and surrounded by rolling countryside, chalk downs, canal walks and pretty rural villages. It offers that highly desirable balance of village life with everyday convenience, making it popular with families, downsizers, commuters and anyone looking for a slower pace without feeling cut off. One of Pewsey’s biggest advantages is its railway station, with services into London Paddington in just over an hour, making it a particularly appealing option for those who need access into London while enjoying Wiltshire life. Pewsey has a good range of day to day amenities, including independent shops, cafés, pubs, a supermarket, pharmacy, post office and useful local services. It has a proper village centre feel, where you can pick up everyday essentials, stop for coffee, meet friends or enjoy a relaxed meal without needing to leave the village. Nearby Marlborough and Devizes add further choice, with boutique shopping, weekly markets, restaurants, cafés and larger amenities within easy reach. The combination of Pewsey’s local convenience and the wider offerings of neighbouring market towns makes it a highly practical place to live. Services: Mains electricity and water.
