Handsome and well proportioned, Green Hall at East Grafton, near Hungerford and Marlborough, is a classic Georgian village house with four bedrooms and a modern orangery from which to admire garden views, with three acres of formal lawns, kitchen garden, colourful borders, mature trees, pond and gazebo.
The handsome home is currently on the market via Savills with a guide price of £3 million.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom overlooks the village green and a separate L-shaped party barn contains a fireplace at each end, bedroom, kitchen and shower room, with planning permission in place for an extra bedroom; the combination of the two residential properties makes Green Hall ‘perfect for multi-generational living,’ says agent Liz McLean.
Various other outbuildings include car ports, garage, machinery storage and studio.

East Grafton: What you need to know
Location: East Grafton lies between Pewsey and Hungerford in the North Wessex Downs AONB in Wiltshire, with excellent transportation links via the A303. Fast trains run from Pewsey, Hungerford, Andover and Great Bedwyn to London Paddington and Waterloo.
Atmosphere: The pretty village has a church, nursery and preschool and coronation hall. Nearby Marlborough and Hungerford offer excellent retail and leisure facilities, as well as a wide choice of restaurants.

Schools: Plenty of options in the area with Marlborough College, St. John's, Dauntseys and St Mary's Calne. The nearest primary schools are Burbage Primary School, St Katharine's C of E Primary School and Easton Royal Academy, all of which are rated 'good' by Ofsted.
