Set amidst the serene landscapes of East Chisenbury, this former farm presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated on the banks of the River Avon, the property comes with riparian rights and offers direct access to approximately 440 meters of riverfront. With its woodland backdrop rich in wildlife, this location not only provides privacy but also a picturesque setting that enhances its appeal.
The main residence, an unassuming cottage, features three bedrooms along with a practical layout that encourages flow between spaces. While the home is welcoming as it stands, it is primed for modernization, allowing new owners to tailor it to their preferences. The ground floor comprises a charming entrance hall with an open brick fire and bread oven, a triple-aspect sitting room complete with an open fire, a dining room, and a kitchen/breakfast area highlighted by a Rayburn stove. Additionally, there is a snug, utility room, and a cloakroom. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious landing leading to the principal suite with an en-suite bathroom plus two more double bedrooms and an office-sized single bedroom.
For those looking to capitalize on potential growth or supplement income, planning permission has been granted for converting an outbuilding into a two-storey holiday let—a feature that could be highly attractive in this scenic area. The extensive grounds span over 9 acres and include various outbuildings such as stabling for three horses, a detached double garage, and two substantial barns—one of which is earmarked for conversion.
The outdoor space stands out with thoughtfully planted trees forming an informal arboretum and paths adorned with wildflowers lining the riverbanks. A large open field used for grazing adds further versatility to the land usage.
East Chisenbury itself is characterized by its tranquil hamlet atmosphere within Wiltshire’s Pewsey Vale. While amenities are limited locally, nearby villages offer essential services and facilities. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the surrounding equestrian trails and local riding centers. The renowned Red Lion Freehouse provides quality dining options recognized nationally. Furthermore, Pewsey Rail Station is only about 20 minutes away, offering swift access to London Paddington in roughly one hour.
This property offers both substantial living space and promising investment potential in a desirable location—ideal for those seeking either a personal retreat or an opportunity to generate rental income through holiday letting.
