What a fantastic , flexible family home set in the sought-after Katherine Park development!
A long hallway is the first space you step into with a door to the re fitted modern downstairs WC, a large under stairs cupboard and room to store shoes and coats. To one side is the lovely spacious living room with a feature fireplace and french doors out onto the spacious garden area. Dual aspect, this room has loads of light and is a great place to relax, fitting most modern sofa arrangements for all the family to gather on.
The heart of this home is its well-proportioned kitchen diner, also featuring French doors access to the garden allowing everyone to spill out onto the patio for a BBQ and great for family entertaining. Recently re-fitted, this spacious room boasts a modern handle-less kitchen in a cool shade of grey, with comprehensive units and spaces for all appliances. There is space for a good sized dining table and is ideal for family meals.
The home has an abundance of flexible upstairs space, with 5 good sized rooms spread across three floors, this townhouse is perfectly suited for a growing family or those in need of extra space for a home office or guest rooms. The teenagers or kids will be begging you to let them have the whole top floor, or if you both work from home, these 2 rooms offer great individual office spaces set away from your main living accommodation. On the middle floor, the main bedroom has built in wardrobes plus a modernized en suite shower room, there is an additional generous single bedroom/office and a further double bedroom, both again with built in wardrobes. In addition there is a superb modern family bathroom at this level.
Outside to the rear is a fabulous south facing and good sized garden. A large area of decking covers what was a rear parking area (more about that shortly) , a level lawn offers a great place for the kids to play, and a further patio space links the kitchen and living room via the french doors. A great open space taking full advantage of that south facing sun. A few troughs of bamboo or trees would give you a little more screening to one side and would soften up the edges if you prefer a green boundary to your outdoor space. A rear gate gives access to come home after muddy dog walks around the local lakes.
Lets explain the parking set up! When the developers built this development, a good number of houses were built with drive through garages. The front has a door, but the rear was open allowing you to drive, through the garage and park in the rear garden. Inspired eh!? As a result, most owners have incorporated the rear garden parking space into the garden seating areas and closed off the garage at the back to provide useful secure storage and this is exactly what has been changed at this property. there is plenty of on street parking outside the property which is set on a quiet side road and never causes an issue in this road. If you would like a drive through garage and 2 off street parking spaces, this can easily be re-instated.
Privet way is a quiet road just a short walk away from the shop, play areas and lakes with walks around the development or onward to Neston. A pedestrian cut-through offer good access by foot to the Corsham secondary school, Springfield campus (0.4 miles), and onward to the town centre (just under a mile). A local shop is provided by the Co-op where you can stock up on essentials, but also collect/return deliveries. There are 2 children's play parks within the development and a real sense of community. Katherine Park is a very popular area for all types of buyers, with its local convenience store and lovely hidden lakeside walks on your doorstep. Please check out the additional video for a guided tour of the green spaces.
Transport links are provided by a local bus service which runs around the estate with further bus stops for Bath or Chippenham rail station close by. The road access to both Bath and the M4 is excellent and the rail line at Chippenham provides access to London Paddington in just under an hour. Corsham itself is a pretty picturesque town with resident peacocks who wander the high street checking out the independent shops and eateries. A great arts scene is provided by the Pound arts centre and the area is high up on the list of best areas to live in the West. The Springfield sports campus offers a pool, gym, a variety of classes and a climbing wall. Plenty for all ages, and the library and café provide a quiet place to stop and relax. There are a variety of great local primary schools and the popular Corsham secondary school also has a very successful 6th form.
