Property Description

Simply a stunning and classic home with character features throughout and sympathetic modernization. On entering this gorgeous home, you are met with a lovely spacious hallway with high ceilings, which feature throughout all the rooms. A clever storage system has been built underneath the stairs along with hanging space. Lots of room here to store coats and shoes. The first reception room to the front of the property has a grand bay window fitted with tasteful double-glazed sash windows allowing light to flood in and a beautiful fireplace. This is a sizeable room and adaptable for large and small pieces of furniture and is a wonderful formal sitting room. Towards the rear though there is a wonderful second reception room that has a wood burner inset into the wall, plenty of space for living furniture as well as a dining table with the added benefit of French doors opening out onto the back garden. The dining area features a window seat and leads into the beautiful large kitchen with cream shaker-style units, an integrated eye-level oven, microwave/combi oven, a fridge freezer, dishwasher, and an induction hob. A real treat is the very generous walk-in larder offering a huge amount of storage space. The kitchen has a large window overlooking the garden and a door to the outside, offering natural light, and providing even more sense of space and light. Downstairs also boasts a large cloakroom with a utility area, which is set up with spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer and also further useful storage cupboards.

Upstairs, there are 4 excellent bedrooms. The master bedroom has beautiful double-glazed sash windows to the front of the property, plenty of space for furniture and wardrobes, and a modern en-suite with a large walk-in shower. There is also plenty of integrated storage available.  The second and third bedrooms both offer a fabulous, light, and airy space with built-in wardrobes/storage and large windows overlooking the back garden. Both are comfortable large double bedrooms. The 4th bedroom is a well-proportioned single room and perfect for a study or hobby room with a window overlooking the front garden. The modern main bathroom is again a lovely light space, neutrally decorated, and has a bath with an overhead shower with vanity units and a large mirror.

Outside, in the generous and private rear garden, you can relax and/or entertain on the patio area directly from the second reception room, overlooking a pretty central lawn surrounded by shrubs and trees, with beautiful features including a seating area covered by a pergola.  The good-sized lawn in the middle offers spaces for children to play and at the bottom of the garden, you have a very large, tiled roof workshop with light and power. Perfect as an office or studio if required. 

West End is a quiet street tucked away very close to the heart of Melksham town centre, so is easy walking distance to all the local shops, restaurants and amenities.  Within a 5-minute walk, you can reach the town centre with all its facilities including, 4 supermarkets (including Waitrose and Aldi), a newly opened community centre with a gym, fitness classes, a swimming pool, a library, cafes, and even a real ale pub. The nearby bus stops link to Bath, Devizes, Chippenham, Frome, and surrounding villages and the railway station gives further access to Swindon and Trowbridge and other rail links beyond. Access to the Georgian City of Bath is easy by road (approx. 25 minutes away) via car, and in addition, the National Trust village of Lacock is just 10 minutes by car, and a lovely day out.
