A substantially extended country family house surrounded by lovely gardens of over an acre, in a rural setting in the sought-after Pewsey Vale
Ringstead is peacefully set close to the desirable village of Manningford Abbots in the Pewsey Vale, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Ringstead offers great privacy, lying in a large garden surrounded by beautiful trees .The larger village of Pewsey
with its excellent train service to Newbury, Reading and London Paddington (approx. 1 hr 10 mins), is just 1 mile away. In addition, Pewsey has a host of village amenities, and the market town of Marlborough to the north also offers a larger selection of retail
shops and supermarkets.
There is easy access to the M4, A303 and M3. The Kennet & Avon canal passes close to the village and there is excellent walking, cycling and riding in the Vale of Pewsey.
The area has several highly regarded public schools including Marlborough College, Dauntsey's in Market Lavington, Godolphin in Salisbury, St. Mary's Calne as well as St. Francis preparatory school in Pewsey, Salisbury Cathedral school, Chafyn Grove Preparatory,
Salisbury and St. Margaret's preparatory in Calne several of which offer their own bus service.
This country house was substantially extended and re-designed including re-wiring and plumbing in 2008, with the addition of a 3 storey wing to the eastern side. Planning consent remains to further extend to the west and build a separate garage block with
annexe above (plans available from the agents). The vendors have transformed the house to a beautiful modern country family home.
