Situated at the end of a charming terrace close to the heart of Corsham, this three bedroom period cottage offers accommodation set over three storeys, complete with low maintenance rear garden and a deceptively spacious internal space measuring in excess of 1,170 sq.ft.
Located in the historic area of Pickwick, Corsham, this attractive Grade II Listed home offers rooms of sizeable proportion and flexible accommodation that spans three storeys. The ground floor enjoys a large and inviting sitting room that measures 19’ 1” x 17’ 3”, featuring exposed wooden beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace with a working wood burner.
Moving from the sitting room to the rear of the cottage is a bright and sociable kitchen / dining room that enjoys further exposed wooden beams as well as tall ceilings that elevate the feeling of space. The kitchen comprises built-in wall and base units as well as a mixture of built-in and freestanding appliances with ample space for a freestanding dining table, and access to the private garden via patio doors.
A staircase from the sitting room to the first floor leads to two bedrooms and a handy washroom / WC. The master bedroom enjoys dual aspect windows with an outlook over the front and rear, and original feature stone fireplace surround. Subject to consents, there is potential to create a larger first floor bathroom or ensuite shower-room, if desired. The second bedroom on the first floor also overlooks the front aspect and is large enough to accommodate a single bed.
A staircase to the second floor leads to bedroom three which is also a generous double bedroom and the family bathroom. The family bathroom enjoys a neutral white suite and includes a bath and separate shower cubicle.
The inviting south-facing garden has been landscaped by the current owner to create a level and low maintenance area that can be enjoyed all year round. The garden remains fully enclosed by an attractive stone wall and neighbouring fencing, and enjoys privacy from neighbouring properties.
This lovely stone-built house is situated in the historic area of Pickwick on the west side of Corsham town centre, where Charles Dickens was inspired to write his first novel, 'The Pickwick Papers'. The old and quintessentially English High Street that Corsham offers contains a plethora of local amenities, some of which include a variety of eateries, pubs, independent shops, a 'Co-op' supermarket, butchers, hair-dressers, post office and opticians - Just to mention a few. The High Street is a gentle and relatively level 700 metre (or so) walk away, and other facilities that are within walking distance include a doctors surgery, The Hare and Hounds Pub, Springfield Leisure centre, and a bus / coach station (which can provide access to Bath and London). Good schooling and sporting options are also close at hand, as are a range of beautiful walks and national trust attractions. The Georgian heritage city of Bath is within easy driving distance, as is Chippenham- with its main line station to London (Paddington) and Junction 17 of the M4 motorway
