Description
The Old Smithy is an attractive detached period house standing within a good-sized plot of c.0.36 acres which was formerly the village petrol garage and shop. The property is positioned in the village centre with a lovely view across the church opposite and just a short walk to the pub. Since being purchased in 2015, the property has been converted and renovated to a good standard creating a characterful family-sized home.
Extending to around 1,733 sq.ft, the accommodation includes three reception areas, a kitchen/breakfast room which was refitted last year with integrated appliances, and a separate utility room and WC. The living room features a cosy wood-burning stove while the sitting room has a fireplace with an inset electric fire. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, and the family bathroom which has been upgraded with both a roll-top bath and large walk-in shower. In 2017, planning consent was granted for a two-storey extension to create a fashionable kitchen/family room with a dressing room above, and externally a double garage (now lapsed).
The house is accompanied by an excellent range of outbuildings including a home office, workshop and garden studio. The home office has heating/air-conditioning and wired internet, and the garden studio has power and internet connected and is fitted with a bar. The lawned gardens wrap around the house with the rear main garden enjoying a south-facing aspect. There is a generous amount of private off-street parking for numerous vehicle types over the front gravelled forecourt.
Situation
The sought after village of Little Somerford lies three miles south-east of Malmesbury, 9 miles from both Tetbury and Chippenham. The village has a church, the well-regarded Somerford Arms pub, and a village hall which is shared with neighbouring Great Somerford. Great Somerford is located less than 2 miles away and has a shop, public house and popular primary school. The market town of Malmesbury has an excellent range of facilities including an Ofsted Outstanding secondary school. Junctions 16 & 17 of the M4 are both within a convenient driving distance and provide easy access to Swindon, Bath and Bristol. Mainline railway stations are at Chippenham and Kemble (approx. 11 miles) both with regular services running into London Paddington.
Additional Information
The property is Freehold with oil-fired central heating, mains drainage, water and electricity. The property is located within a conservation area. Ultrafast broadband is available (Cat6 cabling) and there is mobile phone coverage with some limitations.
