## Description

The property’s open plan ground floor has an easy flow offering a flexible and practical living space.  It is also perfect as an entertaining space with the added convenience of an adjoining but separate utility and cloakroom. Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms with a family bathroom and a separate shower room.  The whole house has a light and spacious feel and is maintained to a high standard.

The sitting room/study benefits from oak flooring, while the kitchen/breakfast room and utility room are tiled. The kitchen/breakfast room, at the back of the house, overlooks the well-proportioned patio and garden which can be accessed through patio doors. The garden is mostly laid to lawn, with a mature apple tree. There is also a side access from the front of the property and from the utility room.

The location of the house is well suited for a family. It is close to three schools: Sheldon Secondary School (0.9 miles), Hardenhuish Secondary School (1 mile), and Redland Primary School (0.2 miles), all rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Chippenham station is only 0.8 miles away, which is perfect for commuting to London in 67 minutes or Bristol in 28 minutes. The World Heritage City of Bath is 15.2 miles away and the market town of Corsham with its individual galleries and cafes is just 4.8 miles away. Chippenham itself has a bustling high street with many independent shops and cafés, and several national retail chains. Major branches of most leading supermarkets are within close proximity of  the property and Allington Farm Shop is only 1.3 miles away.  Chippenham also benefits from a very active Town Council hosting a variety of community events throughout the year whilst managing a wide range of local facilities.
