Tucked away within the well-regarded Wiltshire village of Figheldean and accessed of a private road, is Cleeve House, an imposing dwelling of immense character which, together with an impressive wholly self-contained annexe (shaded cream on the floor plan), boasts a staggering 5668 sq feet of accommodation.

Truly unique, Cleeve House offers a variety of uses from individual family living, multi-generational living and, it’s present function as an established, successful holiday and letting business providing an additional income. Please note that there is a healthy diary of forward bookings and income which will be transferred to the new owner’s intent on retaining the business.

The original house, Cleveland Lodge, was built in the early 1800s and subsequently destroyed by fire. It was then re-built in 1870 since when it has been a private residence, a vicarage, a private nursing home and once again a family home now known as Cleeve House. The main house offers exceptional accommodation over three floors with a large welcoming reception hall, elegant living rooms, a fabulous farmhouse kitchen, office/study, large wine cellar, five large double bedrooms and two luxurious bathrooms. The annexe can be accessed separately or via the main house and comprises a sitting room, kitchen/dining room, 6 double bedrooms, bathroom and two cloakrooms.

Both Cleeve House and the annexe can be accessed off the drive which will accommodate approximately 10/12 vehicles. There is also a useful external detached brick built two room store. The garden has been professionally landscaped to make best use of the available space with various seating areas and a generous lawn bordered by raised planters.

We strongly recommend an internal viewing to fully appreciate the accommodation and, to understand the multi-functionality of the whole property.
