Summary - LIME TREE HOUSE HODSON ROAD CHISELDON SWINDON SN4 0LN
8 bed 3 bath Detached
Substantial Grade II Georgian manor with 1.4-acre grounds and planning for office/games room.
Grade II listed Georgian manor dating to c.1715
An impressive Grade II listed Georgian manor set within about 1.4 acres of formal gardens and mature planting, Lime Tree House blends grand period proportions with village convenience. Built c.1715, the house offers extensive reception space, high ceilings, sash windows and original cornicing, plus a kitchen/breakfast room with Aga and a family room with wood-burning stove — ideal for a large or multi-generational family seeking character and privacy.
Practical benefits include off-street parking and garaging accessed via electric gates, fast broadband, and proximity to M4 (J15) and mainline stations for London travel. The property sits in a Conservation Area within the North Wessex Downs AONB and is a short drive from Swindon and Marlborough, with several well-regarded schools nearby.
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and can increase maintenance and repair costs; this status “will cause difficulties” and should be factored into any refurbishment plans. There are only three bathrooms for eight bedrooms, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Planning permission for an office/games room (S/11/1717) has been granted and the footings laid, providing an opportunity to add useful accommodation subject to the existing consents and listed-building constraints.
For families who value space, period detail and a private, semi-rural setting, Lime Tree House offers rare scale in a village location. For buyers seeking a simple development plot or unrestricted modernisation, the listed status and conservation protections will limit scope and add cost.
