Property description
When the current owners bought Meadow View, it was a rundown 1970s bungalow, but, as they say: We could see the potential straightaway and houses rarely come up for sale in this very popular village. Great Somerford was named the best kept medium sized village in Wiltshire in 2015. We have completely redesigned and extended the property, to turn it into the wonderful house that it is today.The downstairs is completely open plan but still has defined areas, incorporating a modern kitchen/diner, a cosy TV lounge with log burner and a more formal sitting area with large glass doors opening directly onto the patio. All of this makes it a very sociable space and is perfect for entertaining.We wanted to make sure that the house was light and airy, hopefully we have achieved this by creating vaulted ceilings both downstairs and upstairs in the bedrooms and landing.There are 4 double bedrooms [2 en-suite] one of which is downstairs, this is ideal for visiting family and friends To the rear of the property there is a home office and two large store rooms. The patio and garden are surrounded by a Grade II listed, south facing, redbrick wall, making the rear a very private and safe area. During the Summer we have sun all day in the garden, and it has been the scene of many parties for friends and family.To the front, the house is approached through large wooden gates and has ample parking for numerous cars. There is also potential space to construct a garage or carport.Great Somerford is a wonderful village with an excellent community. There is a Post-Office/shop, a Church, a C of E primary school and a pub. From the doorstep, there are many lovely walks, perfect for dog lovers and there are also many bridleways for horse riders.Malmesbury is the closest town, approximately 5 miles away, and is home to a Medieval abbey. Malmesbury itself is the oldest borough in the UK and dates back to the middle of the sixth century. There is a newly opened Waitrose here, as well as banks, chemists and local shops in the high street. Chippenham mainline station is 8 miles away and has direct services to London Paddington (75 minutes) as well as good services to Bath and Bristol. Chippenham also has all the major supermarkets, banks and shops. Communications are excellent: Bath is approximately 21 miles, Bristol approximately 28 miles, Swindon approximately 20 miles and M4 junction 17 approximately 4 miles away.
