Set on a substantial corner plot in the desirable Chestnut Springs development, this three-bedroom detached bungalow delivers comfortable single-storey living with clear scope to personalise. The footprint has been extended twice, creating flexible accommodation that includes three reception rooms, a conservatory, and a primary bedroom with dressing room and en-suite. A double garage with internal access and driveway parking for multiple cars are significant practical benefits for car-owning buyers.
The layout suits downsizers or anyone seeking level living: wide hallways lead to well-proportioned rooms and a dual-aspect living room with a large bay window. The kitchen, separate dining room and conservatory offer potential to create an open-plan kitchen–diner subject to taste and budget. The private rear garden and generous frontage provide outdoor space and privacy on a large plot unusual for this property type.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property has gas central heating to radiators, filled cavity walls and double glazing installed before 2002. The house is offered with no onward chain, making for a quicker transaction. Council Tax is currently Band E (Wiltshire) which sits above average and should be factored into running costs.
As-built and decorative age are mid-20th century; parts of the house are described as dated and there is clear scope for updating (kitchen, bathrooms, and cosmetic finishes) if desired. Buyers seeking a turn-key, contemporary finish should budget for refurbishment works, but those prepared to improve the bungalow will find a rare, spacious single-storey home in a very low-crime, affluent village setting.
