Country house for sale in Widham, Purton, Swindon, Wiltshire SN5

***viewing essential to fully appreciate the plot and position of this property***Located on the edge of the hugely popular village of Purton is this attractive detached cottage, originally stone built, and more recently significantly extended into a family home, occupying a plot of around 0.25 acre. Offered for sale with no onward chain, this home provides a wealth of character combined with a semi-rural feel given its position on the periphery of the village and should be viewed internally to fully appreciate.
The home itself boasts 3 bedrooms plus a study and family bathroom to the first floor, plus 2 good size reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, large utility room and a ground floor shower room but also offers plenty of scope for updating, reconfiguring or rebuilding to make the most of the plot (STPP).
Externally, the enclosed rear garden is of a generous size and includes a vegetable patch, mature fruit trees and 'secret garden' to the far end with two hard standings for sheds. There is also driveway parking and turning space for several cars with space to build a garage (STPP).
Purton is a thriving village community which lies on the Western side of Swindon offering an excellent range of shops and amenities plus well regarded primary and secondary schools all within walking distance. The pretty market towns of Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade are both within 10 minutes’ drive with Cirencester and the southern Cotswolds easily reachable in under 30 minutes via the excellent local road links. London Paddington is under an hour away by train from Swindon's mainline Station.
