BRADFORD ON AVON I LETTINGS I LONDON I TROWBRIDGE I WESTBURY NORTON HOUSE, GREAT HINTON, WILTSHIRE, BA14 6BZ
An attractive mid eighteenth century Grade II listed detached village house attached garage, driveway and delightful garden abutting a clear flowing watercourse feeding Semington Brook
The property is of excellent proportions with attractive brick façade, stone quoins and leaded mullion windows.
Accommodation comprises a splendid sitting room with planked ceiling and fireplace at each end, study, snug, lovely slate floored kitchen/dining room with AGA, boot room, utility, shower/WC, spacious landing with dressing area, 3 double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
There is an easy access loft room from bedroom one for plentiful storage or other use subject to planning etc. Additionally there are storage areas in the voids of the utility and above the laundry, dining area and family bathroom as well as a lean to store on the rear of the house - ideal workshop space - and an attractive attached garden.
The property benefits from a modern oil fired central heating system and provides comfortable family size accommodation. A short drive to the nearby village of Keevil and Seend for local Primary Schooling and a wider choice of state and independent secondary schools in the surrounding towns makes a compelling argument for this being the perfect family home. It has to be said that the house is equally suited to quintessential retirement as well, with gardens to satisfy the ardent gardening enthusiast and an active village community to dip in and out of as suits.
The garden is meadow like with mature natural planting and an attractive clear running water course at its boundary.
