Full Description: Originally a modest farmhouse dating from the 18th and 19th centuries, Oxenleaze Farm has evolved into an impressive detached country home set centrally within approximately 25 acres of private grounds on the rural outskirts of Keevil, near Trowbridge. Surrounded by its own land, the property enjoys complete seclusion while remaining within easy reach of Bath, excellent road links and a selection of highly regarded independent schools, including Dauntsey's and Stonar. Combining period charm with thoughtfully designed modern extensions, the house offers generous family accommodation alongside extensive equestrian facilities and additional versatile spaces.<br /><br />Arranged over three floors, the accommodation offers an inviting entrance hall, complete with an impressive fireplace, a second hall overlooked by a galleried landing, along with a cosy panelled snug, study and elegant drawing room. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area, creating a sociable hub for everyday family life and entertaining, while a separate utility room provides further practicality. Throughout the seasons, the house offers a wonderful balance of light and comfort, with many rooms enjoying far-reaching views across the gardens and countryside. Exposed beams and wood-burning stoves create a warm, welcoming atmosphere during the winter months. The upper floors comprise five bedrooms with en suite bath or shower rooms while an attic room also offers flexible living space.<br /><br />Owned by the same family for the past 22 years, the property has been thoughtfully updated to enhance modern living. The bespoke Mark Wilkinson kitchen and matching utility room have become the heart of the home, while all five bathrooms have been stylishly refurbished with either freestanding roll-top baths or walk-in showers, complemented by tumbled marble or oak flooring. Oak doors together with mainly oak and stone flooring throughout add warmth and character, solar panels improve energy efficiency, and planning permission has been granted to convert part of the stable block into a one-bedroom dwelling, offering exciting future potential.<br />Outside, the setting is every bit as impressive as the house itself. A large barn and a double carport, are complemented by an extensive courtyard of traditional outbuildings, including six loose boxes, a tack room, office, gym and store. Extensive gardens have been designed as a series of interconnected 'garden rooms', offering numerous seating areas overlooking the surrounding fields. Mature trees, a pond and abundant wildlife, including deer, owls, woodpeckers and moorhens, create an idyllic backdrop, while nearby bridleways and country walks make the property particularly appealing for equestrian enthusiasts and those seeking a peaceful countryside lifestyle.<br /><br />Additional Information:<br />Please see Key Facts For Buyers on video link/media tab.<br /><br />The comments provided herein represent the personal views of the current owner and are intended solely as an insight into life at the property.
