Summary - FORGE MILL COTTAGE LITTLE SOMERFORD CHIPPENHAM SN15 5JW
2 bed 1 bath House
Charming two-bedroom Victorian cottage with garden, parking and renovation potential.
Victorian semi-detached cottage with period brickwork and chimney
Forge Mill Cottage is a charming two-bedroom Victorian semi in Little Somerford, set within a quiet village on the edge of the Cotswolds. The house offers 790 sq ft of well-laid-out living space with a cosy sitting room and log burner, a generous kitchen/dining room with range cooker and dishwasher, plus useful ground-floor cloakroom/utility and handy storage. A private side garden and off-street parking add practical appeal for everyday country living.
The property will suit buyers seeking village life and good commuter links: Chippenham (mainline rail) and the M4 are within easy reach. The area is very affluent, has low crime, fast broadband and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, including an Outstanding secondary in Malmesbury.
Built before 1900 in solid brick, the cottage has period character but also some trade-offs. Heating and cooking run from LPG tanks rather than mains gas, walls are assumed uninsulated and the house would benefit from modernisation and insulation improvements. The plot is modest and the garden and garage area show signs of being overgrown and may need TLC. The property is freehold and offered chain free, which speeds up purchase for those ready to renovate.
This home is a strong match for downsizers, first-time buyers wanting a village base, or investors looking for a period cottage with uplift potential after sympathetic updating. The principal selling points are location, character features and practical layout; buyers should budget for energy upgrades and some refurbishment to maximise comfort and long-term value.
