Description:

Designed by David Allford in the mid-60s, this unique rural retreat in Wiltshire offers a tranquil escape from city life while remaining conveniently close to London. The single-story, 4-bedroom house boasts a distinctive design where each room connects seamlessly to the garden through large glazed doors, while a clearstory bathes the interior in natural light. Supported by Staffordshire blue brick pillars, the roof spans across a grid of fifteen 8ft x 16ft bays. Inside, elegant floor-to-ceiling Columbian pine paneling adorns all walls. Situated on a 2-acre garden within a charming hamlet beside the scenic Kennett and Avon canal, the property features various garden sections including a secret garden, vegetable beds, a wild rose garden, lawns, and a pond. Adjacent to the house lies a 14-acre wildflower meadow and woodland leading to the river Avon, winding through marshy wetlands.
