Fabulous semi-rural building plot backing onto farmland with consent for an executive 4 bedroom detached house of over 4,280ft² (398m²).

The village is set in the rolling Wiltshire countryside near the historic market towns of Bradford on Avon and Melksham. The village has a thriving school, a large common, beautiful countryside walks, a cricket and football pitch, bowling green, a village hall and two popular public houses.

The villages of Atworth and Whitley are just up the road and offer a village store and café. Nearby Bradford on Avon, Trowbridge and Melksham offer a wealth of shopping facilities and further afield is the World Heritage city of Bath.

Planning consent was granted for the erection of two dwellings in April 2022 under app no 20/10989/FUL with some conditions since discharged via application reference PL/2023/04172. Works for plot 2 have started and the Council have confirmed the permission is extant.

Plot 1 is situated at the rear of the site and the proposed accommodation comprises on the ground floor; entrance hall, open plan kitchen/family room, living room, playroom/study, utility room and cloakroom. There is also a double garage.

On the first floor; master bedroom with en-suite and walk-in wardrobes, 3 further bedrooms, family bathroom and office/workshop (accessed via the garage).

The plans show an internal floor area of about 4,280ft² (398m²) including the garage.

Externally, the property will be accessed via a shared entrance driveway and the house will have ample parking. There will be a good sized garden to the side and rear.

One of the great aspects of the proposed house is the view over the adjoining farmland to the rear.
