Summary - THE BRIDGE HOUSE THE STREET CASTLE COMBE CHIPPENHAM SN14 7HU
3 bed 2 bath Village House
Spacious historic home with large garden and outbuildings in Castle Combe.
Iconic Grade II listed Cotswold stone house
The Bridge House is a rare Grade II listed Cotswold stone house occupying an iconic spot in Castle Combe. Over 2,700 sq ft of well-proportioned living space centres on an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room with vaulted ceiling and oil-fired Aga, generous ground-floor reception rooms and original fireplaces that retain strong period character. The large, private garden (c.0.41 acre) and powered outbuildings add practical flexibility for a home studio, workshop and ample parking accessed via a private driveway.
The current layout provides three bedrooms and two bathrooms with scope to create a fourth bedroom and en suite on the mezzanine above the snug — planning permission was secured in 2001 and is understood still to be valid. Modern upgrades include underfloor heating across much of the ground floor and mains services; superfast broadband is available on-site though mobile coverage is very limited.
Important practical points are clear: the property uses oil-fired heating and sits in a high flooding-risk zone, which will influence insurance and mitigation costs. Its Grade II listing and Conservation Area location will restrict alterations and require listed-building consents for significant changes. The area is rural and tranquil but records indicate higher local crime levels and slow mobile signal — factors to consider for family logistics and security.
This house will suit buyers seeking a characterful, substantial village home with a large garden and outbuildings — those who value historic detail and space over full modern convenience. It offers immediate, picturesque living with potential to reconfigure living accommodation, provided purchasers are comfortable working within listed-building constraints and addressing flood-risk and services considerations.
