Old Court, Royal Wootton Bassett, Swindon, Wiltshire, SN4

A charming character cottage situated close to the heart of Royal Wootton Bassett, with three bedrooms and pretty gardens.

Description

Facing onto the open green space of Noremarsh Park from an elevated position and within striking distance of the centre of Royal Wootton Bassett, this delightful, detached cottage is currently owned by a local artist and is attractively presented inside and out. The excellent natural light and bright interiors provide the backdrop for lovely character features. The house has early origins, thought to be 1600s and has been updated in recent years, with extensions to the sides and rear and modernised interiors including a new kitchen installed in 2017. There is good scope to improve the cottage further to suit the tastes of the new owner. Inside, original features such as exposed beams, wood panel doors and a lovely inglenook fireplace have been combined with more modern elements to create a charming home with plenty of character.
The ground floor can be entered from the old front door into the sitting room or through the French doors to the art studio, which would make a great reception room, office or dining room. The studio extension also has the potential for a self-contained one bedroomed annex. The property can also be accessed through the kitchen French doors which lead to a long, galley-style kitchen and breakfast room. There’s a double bedroom with ensuite shower room and a further bathroom downstairs, with two bedrooms on the first floor.
Outside
The house is situated on a quiet cul de sac overlooking the park, with street parking available at the rear of the property. The gardens are enclosed and envelop the property on all sides, with a pretty south-facing patio to the front, perfect for enjoying alfresco meals in the sun, and a secluded lawned garden to the rear with mature shrubs and flowerbeds all around the boundary.
