This bay-fronted mid-terraced cottage offers a compact, characterful home on the eastern edge of Melksham — an appealing option for a first-time buyer or someone seeking a manageable renovation project. The ground floor layout provides a bay living room, separate dining room and a good-sized kitchen/dining space that opens easily to the rear garden. Two upstairs bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation within an average-sized footprint (approx. 850 sq ft).
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing where fitted, low council tax and no onward chain — useful for a quicker move. The property sits in a small no-through road with easy access to local shops, schools and Melksham town centre; good transport links from nearby Chippenham and the M4 make commuting viable.
The house is solidly roofed and retains cottage character such as exposed beams and a bay window, but several areas will benefit from updating. Rooms are small-to-average, ceilings are relatively low in places, and the garden and some internal fittings appear dated and will need attention. Buyers should expect cosmetic modernisation and possible minor repairs rather than a turnkey finish.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable freehold opportunity for someone wanting a starter home with scope to add value. Its compact scale keeps running costs down, and the no-chain status plus pleasant, low-crime location make it straightforward to view and buy.
