Summary - COMMON FARM YORK HOUSE WITTS LANE PURTON SWINDON SN5 4ES
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Extensive period home with modern upgrades and garage studio.
Five bedrooms and three bathrooms across three spacious floors
A statement Victorian farmhouse refurbished for modern family life, set in the prosperous countryside hamlet of Purton. The house offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms and generous living space across three floors, combining period features such as high ceilings, sash-style windows and chimneys with contemporary fittings and a large, re‑fitted kitchen/family room that opens to the garden. Recent upgrades include 31 solar panels (2023), new log burner and updated double glazing and heating systems.
The property sits on a decent plot with fully enclosed, landscaped gardens, ample driveway parking and a triple garage split into double and single bays. Above the garage is a well-presented studio suitable for home working or potential annex use. Internally the layout is flexible: two substantial principal bedrooms (one on first floor, one on second), multiple reception rooms, a garden room and practical utility/boot rooms—all arranged to suit family entertaining and day-to-day living.
Practical strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, very low local crime and no flood risk. The house is offered chain free and benefits from the nearby schools rated Good to Outstanding, plus countryside amenities such as meadow and woodland walks. The villa-like presence, size (approx. 4,428 sq ft) and contemporary energy additions make it attractive for buyers seeking a spacious period home with modern running costs improved by solar.
Notable considerations: the home’s council tax is described as quite expensive; the property’s long history (originally c.1890) means some traditional elements remain, and timber-frame construction is assumed. Prospective buyers should view to assess the fabric and finishes in person and confirm any loft/structural details or heritage constraints before purchase.
