Pickwick, Corsham

What a great opportunity for someone to own a little piece of Corsham history., This cute Victorian cottage is located in PIckwick on the fringes of Corsham, yet walking distance to local amenities. The property is larger then expected and in move in condition but with the ability to improve further and make your home. 

Approaching the cottage from the A4, there is a large gravel driveway and a garage to the side where the neighbours also have parking and garages as well. Naturally, you are drawn to access the property from the rear and a side gate brings you through into the garden and a door into the kitchen area gives convenient access. As you step in, the kitchen opens up into a kitchen/diner with plenty of room for a dining table . Not what you'd expect !There are windows all around the rooms, so plenty of light and there are across the garden from the sink. Stepping through a glazed door, and a couple of small steps down and you are standing in a cosy but still great sized sitting room. There is space for a variety of seating options, and the two double glazed windows ensure there is a good amount of natural light. A front door also gives you another option to access the cottage. In addition the stairs rise up on one side and a useful bolt hole store cupboard offers additional storage. 

Upstairs and the main bedroom is a comfortable double bedroom and also has a cupboard housing the boiler and offering some storage. Bedroom 2 is located up a couple of small steps towards the rear and also has some built in storage. Although this room could accommodate a double bed at a squeeze, it is perfectly suited to a study with an occasional fold out bed. The only potential problem is getting much work done when you can watch the wildlife in the fields behind your garden. A modern white suite with vanity units and shower over the bath  completes this floor. 

Outside is a pretty cottage garden, surrounded by mature shrubs. A gravel area offers a shady place to sit under the mature trees, a central lawn and also a side access into the garage as well as back onto your drive. Backing onto fields, this garden is a lovely place to relax. To the side of the garden areas is your gravel drive and single garage which is most unusual for a 2 bedroom cottage ! A real bonus indeed. 

The location of this cottage is just off the main A4 which gives really convenient access to Bath and Chippenham via car, but also via the regular bus routes which pick up close by! You could even walk less than 1/2 mile to the coach pick up point to give a quick and affordable route in to London. More locally, there is a local pub, The Hare and Hounds which offers food and drink and a pretty beer garden, a convenience shop within the garage next door to the pub and then a little further on you have all the amenities you need in Corsham town. Join the peacocks wandering the high street and check out the range of independent shops and eateries or enjoy some sports at The Springfield campus. For walking, there are countryside walks with a nature reserve just around the corner and cycle routes into the villages surrounding this pretty town. The mainline rail station located in Chippenham provides a route to London Paddington in around an hour or Bristol in around 30 minutes. 

Agents notes: 

The property is heated by electric radiators with an immersion heater for your water. (All of which can be operated on Economy 7 if selected.). There is double glazing throughout, 

The maintenance of the driveway is shared between the 3 cottages that use the space and each has right of access over it as does the farmer access to the field behind. 

No 55 Bath road has right of way to use the side gate to access the rear of their cottage which runs alongside the rear wall of No 57. 

55 Bath Road will also be available for purchase at a later date should someone want to work with both cottages. Please ask the agent for further details.
