Originally formed from two small stone cottages, bits added to over the course of 250 years and now spanning 2,271 sq ft, layers of history are worn on the sleeve throughout this charming 4-6 bedroom property on the outskirts of the perfectly preserved Medieval village of Lacock.
Internally, the cottage is full of character and packed with period features including fireplaces and warped timber beams. There's plenty of scope to update the property further should new owners wish to put their on mark on over two hundreds years of history.
Downstairs are two lounge areas, one set up for 'winter' serviced by a working stove fireplace and one designated for 'summer' as well as kitchen, larder/utility room with under stair storage and separate dining area. Upstairs are four bedrooms that all enjoy beautiful countryside views. One benefits from an en suite shower room and there is also a modern family bathroom.
There is also earning potential here. Adjacent to Pendle cottage is Spire View - a 2-bedroom holiday cottage that has been converted from a detached garage.
Upstairs is a generous sitting/dining room enjoying the lovely views to all aspects. Given the proximity to Lacock which is a year-round attraction, the cottage offers a good income should new owners wish to continue to rent the annexe.
Downstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with en suite facilities, an additional shower room and a galley kitchen. There is a private terrace and parking.
To the side of the house is a gravelled drive providing parking for several vehicles. There are lawned areas and patios and adjacent to the annexe is a swimming pool, approximately 12’x24’, with pool house.
There is also a good sized wildflower meadow that provides a haven for wildlife and an idyllic spot to sit and enjoy the views of surrounding Wiltshire countryside.
A popular filming location - Downton Abbey and Harry Potter were both filmed here - Lacock is perhaps one of the UK's prettiest 'living' villages that has largely remained unchanged since Medieval time; many of those still living there descend from several generations of Lacock residents. It's all crooked timber houses, stone cottages, cute cafes, bakeries, quaint antique shops and stoop-to-enter pubs.
