" Sky Thorns has, from new, only ever been owned and occupied by one family and is now being offered for sale for the first time in its 60 year history.

Located in the hugely popular Wiltshire village of Pitton is Sky Thorns, a detached family home offering immense potential for updating and improving. The property is positioned to the front of a plot extending to about a third of an acre with a private gated drive, parking and car port garaging.

The property was constructed during the mid 1960s by local builders Alexander Pearce for the current owners and later enlarged during the mid 1970s with the additional of a ground floor extension. The accommodation is spacious, light and airy comprising of two large living rooms, dining room, kitchen, conservatory and cloakroom on the ground floor with three generous bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. Central heating is provided via an oil fired boiler to radiators and the property is double glazed.

Quite apart from the obvious potential that exists to transform Sky Thorns is its wonderful mature gardens which are well planted with a great variety of shrubs, bushes and trees together with an historically productive vegetable and fruit garden.

To avoid disappointment, we would strongly advice an early viewing of this excellent village home.
