Property Summary

Pretty three bedroom, two bathroom attached Cotswold stone house, with detached stone built double garage, gardens, and gorgeous country views, located 1.5 miles from the sought after village of Box, and 6.8 miles from the centre of Georgian Bath.

The vendor says: “This unlisted Cotswold stone house was built in 1925. The kitchen/dining room is a bright room with a skylight and a beautiful Neptune kitchen which we had professionally installed. The units are a light white with flecked white marble worktop. We put in a Cotswold stone floor from the front door, in the kitchen, hall and downstairs cloakroom. We have a new silver Rangemaster cooker and built in Neff dishwasher and Neff fridge freezer. There is an island which seats three comfortably and room for a dining table which seats six to eight people. In addition, there is a built in wine rack, and beautiful views out towards Corsham across the fields. Next to the kitchen is a room which could be used either as an office/snug or dining room. Off here is a rear lobby with a Worcester Bosch boiler which we installed about a year ago and a stable door that leads out to the back garden and a Cotswold tile stone patio. Under the stairs is a utility cupboard which has room for a washing machine and drier. The spacious light filled living room has French doors out to the back garden, a Jotul wood burner in a feature stone wall, and two windows facing out to the front and Chapel Plaister hamlet.”

“Halfway up the stairs is a window looking out across fields with sheep grazing in the distance. The principal bedroom has stunning views of open fields towards Colerne on the skyline with rolling hills and woods, and there is an en suite shower room. There is a large family bathroom, with bath, large shower and two windows. The second bedroom is a good double bedroom with dual aspect windows, an inbuilt wardrobe and room for a desk. The third bedroom is a double bedroom with one window facing south. There is a loft, accessed by a ladder, which is boarded and has electricity.”

“The rear garden is mature and bordered by a traditional Cotswold dry stone wall with electric sliding gates. There is parking for several vehicles as well as a large stone built outbuilding with big barn doors. The previous owner used to service tractors here so there is a service pit, electricity and a mezzanine floor with potential to convert to a separate annex or office space.”

“There are brilliant walks on a network of footpaths from our front door to the Wadswick Country store (0.4 miles) with its well-stocked shop and excellent café, as well as to our favourite pub in Box, Quarryman’s Arms (1.3 miles). The views are incredible from the walks – up to King Alfred’s Tower, Warminster, Salisbury plain and Devizes. There is a Grade I listed chapel across the road which was built in the thirteenth century is still in use. There is a very friendly farming community here in the hamlet. Nearby Box has an excellent primary school, doctor’s surgery, chemist, local shop, post office, butchers and a very friendly local pub. There is a thriving sports and social club scene centred on the village sports pavilion and Selwyn Hall. Societies and sporting opportunities include choral singing, flower arranging, bowls, cricket, football and tennis. The house is only 7 miles from Chippenham station which is 1 hour 15 minutes from London and has good parking. The thriving market town of Corsham is only 2.9 miles away. There are lots of nice places to eat locally – we often go to the White Hart at Slaughterford, the Castle Inn in Castle Combe or the Methuen Arms at Corsham.”
