Description

Tucked behind mature hedging and reached via a sweeping tree lined gravel drive, this elegant former Vicarage in Dilton Marsh blends historical charm, generous scale and secluded gardens. Set in over an acre of secure, level grounds, it exudes quiet presence and timeless appeal. Built in 1850, this Grade 2 listed home is a fine example of early Victorian architecture with tall ashlar chimneys, a Bridgewater tiled roof and stone mullion windows. Inside, original fireplaces, ornate cornicing and handcrafted joinery have been beautifully preserved, paired with subtle modern updates. ‘We knew immediately that it was everything we were looking for – even though it needed a lot of attention we loved the welcoming space, the character and the calm,’ say the current owners. ‘We particularly liked that each room has its own unique outlook due to the wrap-around gardens,’ Spanning four floors, the main house offers versatile accommodation. The ground floor features a striking entrance hall, bespoke kitchen, dining room, grand sitting room, study, snug, and large downstairs cloakroom, a layout ideal for relaxed living and entertaining. The basement boasts a large utility room. Upstairs, five double bedrooms, three with en-suites, one with a walk in wardrobe, comfortably welcome family and friends. A detached coach house in need of renovation offers excellent potential. ‘There is great scope here for a gym, guest accommodation, workspace or a multi-generational solution.’ Despite the tranquil county setting of this delightful home, Dilton Marsh has a train station within walking distance, connecting the village to the likes of Bath, Bristol and London. ‘We recently began our journey to Edinburgh from the village station!’ Local amenities are close by and there are two great Farm shops locally, while the market towns of Frome and Bradford on Avon are just a short drive away. There are a number of well-regarded schools locally, including a range of independent schools in both Warminster and Bath. ‘The village has a good pub-cafe, village hall which hosts all sorts of events, and even a fish and chip shop.’ ‘From the doorstep, there are far reaching dog walks through beautiful countryside.’ ‘Whilst we are wonderfully secluded, we have friendly neighbours – the village is one of those places where people stop to say hello.’ ‘The Old Vicarage is the perfect home for entertaining, whether it’s a large family gathering or just a few friends.’ ‘We cherish everything about this wonderful home, but it's now time for us to downsize and let it be filled with family once again.’ Additional Information: Please see Key Facts For Buyers on video link/media tab.
