House For Sale £695,000
DESCRIPTION 1 Meadway is a deceptively large detached chalet bungalow set centrally within a good-sized plot overlooking fields opposite. The property is situated towards the edge of the village of Sherston and yet just a 5-minute walk to the thriving High Street where there is a range of amenities available. The generous accommodation is arranged over two floors extending to 1,776 sq.ft. having been recently updated with a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom.
The ground floor opens to a central entrance hall with timber panelling and pretty stained glass window detailing. There are two principal reception rooms adjoining one another through double doors. The living room has an open fireplace whilst the dining room has patio doors out to a secluded patio terrace. The kitchen is brand new refitted with a centre breakfast bar, integrated washing machine, dishwasher, and Rayburn. A walk-in larder provides additional storage. There are two double bedrooms on the ground floor, one of which could be utilised as an additional reception room if required. The panelled bathroom has been refitted with a stylish roll-top bath and marble effect shower unit complete with rainfall showerhead. The WC also features matching panelling. On the first floor, there are two further double bedrooms with built-in storage. The principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room. The majority of the accommodation enjoys the views over the pony paddocks opposite.
A hatch has been installed in preparation for a lift to provide convenient accessibility from the entrance hall up to the main bedroom.
The plot extends to 0.20 acres with the gardens wrapping around the property on all sides. The gardens are laid mostly to lawn with a seating terrace at the side. At the rear, a yard style area is an ideal place to sit and entertain, enjoying a great degree of privacy. The driveway provides parking for 3 cars in front of the garage. The excellent outbuilding (408 sq.ft.) comprises a garage, workshop area and three store rooms.
SITUATION The beautiful, ancient and much sought after village of Sherston with its broad High Street and historic stone houses is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty conveniently located on the edge of the Cotswolds. Sherston has a thriving community and offers many facilities, including a church, popular primary school, doctors surgery, Co-op shop and post office, coffee shops, hairdresser, Indian restaurant, garden centre and the highly regarded 16th century Rattlebone Inn, with its excellent food and friendly atmosphere. The facilities and amenities in Sherston more than adequately provide for everyday need with a whole host of societies and clubs meeting on a regular basis offering entertainment and social events for young and old alike.
Schooling locally is second to none, with very good state and independent schools providing transport to and from the village on a daily basis. Close by are the market towns of Malmesbury and Tetbury which are both approximately 5 miles away. Malmesbury is reputed to be the oldest Borough in the country dating back to the 11th Century. Both towns offer a wider range of shops, services, schooling and leisure facilities. There are main line stations to London-Paddington at Kemble (14 miles) and Chippenham (12 miles) whilst Junctions 17 & 18 of the M4 are both within 15 minutes' drive providing convenient access to Bath, Bristol and Swindon.
