With stunning views across the surrounding fields, this converted farm building is spacious, bright and modern – and has been designed specifically for wheelchair users. Every little detail has been thought of, from profiling beds in the pretty bedroom and a designer wetroom, to a specially configured kitchen and an easy access patio garden. The original bones of the barn – huge oak beams and a vaulted ceiling – are there in all their glory, but there's a distinctly contemporary feel to the home, with all-white walls and grey furnishings. Its most striking feature is its window wall, which offers panoramic views from every position in the big, open-plan living room. Looking out across the fields of the arable farm on which it's set, the vast doors slide open to blend the indoor and outdoor space, and the sunsets over Fovant Down (famous for its regimental badges cut into the chalk) are spectacular. The owners live nearby and can offer advice on the best gourmet pubs to visit, and it's just a twenty-five-minute drive from Salisbury.
