Summary - THE GABLES, NETTLETON SHRUB, CHIPPENHAM, NETTLETON SN14 7NN
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious plot and countryside living close to schools and transport links.
Large c.1/3 acre plot with mature trees and vegetable garden
Set on roughly one third of an acre in a well‑regarded rural village, this three‑bedroom detached cottage offers significant scope for improvement and extension (subject to consents). The house is set well back from the lane with a broad frontage, off‑street parking and a private, mature rear garden with fruit trees, vegetable plot and greenhouse — a rare plot size for the area.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: two reception rooms, kitchen with larder, rear lobby and ground floor WC, with three bedrooms, family bathroom and separate WC upstairs. Original features survive in places including parquet and solid wood floors and a feature fireplace; these provide a good starting point for sympathetic refurbishment. Oil central heating and double glazing are present, although installation dates are unknown.
The property requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic and likely structural works will be needed to bring services, finishes and fixtures up to contemporary standards. Buyers should allow budget for refurbishment, potential re‑wiring, and updating of the kitchen and bathrooms. Extension potential exists but would be subject to planning and building regulations.
This is a strong opportunity for a family seeking a long‑term rural home, or for purchasers aiming to add value through renovation. The village location places you close to highly regarded primary schools, the picturesque Castle Combe and convenient road links to Chippenham, Bath and the M4. The sale is offered with no onward chain, which may suit buyers looking for a quicker purchase process.
