House For Sale £650,000
Bakers Road, Swindon, Wiltshire


Description
Nestled in the heart of Wroughton, Wiltshire, this remarkable Grade 2 listed, 4-bedroom detached cottage is believed to have origins dating back to the 15th century, steeped in centuries of history and charm.

Originally owned by the local baker, this enchanting property holds a unique legacy. Within the large inglenook fireplace, you'll find the very bread oven where the baker used to craft their daily loaves. This oven, remarkably preserved, stands as a living relic of a bygone era when the scent of freshly baked bread would waft through the cottage and nearby streets. It's said that in those days, the friendly baker would sell their warm, crusty loaves to passers-by directly from the cottage window, creating a cherished tradition that remains a part of the cottage's rich heritage.

Over the years, the property has been sympathetically restored and extended, seamlessly blending the old and the new. Recent meticulous renovations have further enhanced this property's allure. The thatch roof, a hallmark of classic English cottages, has been thoughtfully tended to, with the ridge replaced and chimneys repointed. This means that the thatch roof not only retains its timeless beauty but is also in impeccable condition, promising durability for years to come. These thoughtful renovations and enhancements has resulted in providing a low-maintenance property, making it truly turnkey-ready for its fortunate new owners.

As you step inside, you're welcomed by a practical boot room, setting the tone for the perfect blend of traditional and modern living. A utility room adds convenience to your daily routines, while the heart of the home, the traditional English cottage kitchen, invites you to create culinary delights with its classic charm.

On the ground floor, a well-appointed downstairs bathroom adds convenience, serving two reception rooms adorned with wood burners, offering warm and cosy spaces for relaxation and gatherings. Two double bedrooms and a shower room complete this level.

Venture to the upper quarters, where you'll discover two further bedrooms, one of which boasts an en-suite bathroom, providing privacy and comfort. An adjacent study or dressing room adds versatility to your living space. Two additional storage rooms in the loft offer ample space for all your treasures.

Step through the Oak sunroom on the back of the property, featuring French doors that open onto a private, sunny rear garden that has been meticulously tended to. This tranquil oasis is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors in privacy and seclusion.

A gravel driveway and a garage offer not only convenience but also ample parking and storage options, making this cottage a practical choice for modern living.
