Summary - 47 BRISTOL ROAD CHIPPENHAM SN15 1NT
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large private garden and close to good secondary schools.
Period detached house with stone frontage and bay windows
Set on Bristol Road, this early 20th-century detached home combines period character with family-friendly proportions. The tiled entrance hall leads to a bay-fronted lounge and separate dining room with an open fireplace, while the kitchen opens via French doors to a mature private garden extending over 150ft — an unusually long rear plot for the area. Driveway parking for at least two cars and quick walking access (0.3 miles) to two good local secondary schools suit school runs and family life.
Internally the house offers three bedrooms and a shower room across about 1,144 sq ft. The property benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating and solid brick walls with internal insulation. Rooms retain period details such as bay windows, chimney breasts and decorative moldings, giving immediate charm and scope to personalise.
Practical points to note: the dining room’s open hearth has not been used or swept recently and would require servicing before use. The driveway entrance is shared, and parking is accessed over that shared area. There is only one shower room upstairs, which families may want to upgrade. While generally well presented, the house offers clear potential for modernization or rearrangement to better meet contemporary family needs.
Offered chain free on a freehold title, this property is well placed for families seeking character, outdoor space and convenient local schools. The long garden and flexible reception space present strong potential for extensions, landscaping, or a garden-based lifestyle, subject to necessary consents.
