About
A much loved 1930s three-bedroom detached family home, occupying a generous plot with an outstanding south-facing rear garden, driveway parking and single garage.
Having been a family home for many years, the property is now ready for a new lease of life and offers an exciting opportunity for a purchaser looking to modernise and further enhance a generously proportioned home with excellent potential.
The property enjoys spacious accommodation, three double bedrooms all with dual aspect and a particularly generous garden, all in a convenient location close to local schools, amenities and the town centre.
NO ONWARD CHAIN Sheldon Road - Approached via a driveway providing ample parking and leading to the single garage, the front door opens into a particularly spacious entrance hall which immediately gives a feeling of grandeur.
There is a window to the side, useful space for coats, bags and shoes, under-stairs storage and doors leading to all ground floor rooms, with stairs rising to the first floor.
The sitting room is positioned at the rear of the property and enjoys views over the garden, with a side window, two radiators and patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
An open fire provides an attractive focal point. At the front of the house is the formal dining room, which benefits from a bay window overlooking the front and a further window to the side.
The kitchen is situated at the rear and has windows overlooking both the side and rear, together with a door leading to the side passage.
There is a range of floor and wall-mounted units, electric oven and hob with extractor over, one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer and space for appliances.
Completing the ground floor is a useful shower room with shower cubicle, toilet and wash hand basin, together with plumbing for a washing machine and a cupboard housing the gas-fired boiler.
Upstairs, the spacious and light landing provides access to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
All three bedrooms benefit from a dual aspect, with windows to two elevations allowing plenty of natural light into each room.
The largest bedroom is positioned at the rear and includes a wardrobe to the side of the chimney breast, while the second rear bedroom also overlooks the garden.
The front bedroom benefits from fitted bedroom furniture and additional storage.
The family bathroom has a side window, heated towel rail and airing cupboard housing the hot water tank, together with a suite comprising bath, toilet and wash hand basin.
Outside, one of the property’s real highlights is the extremely generous established south-facing rear garden.
Much-loved and mature, the garden is laid predominantly to lawn with a pathway running from top to bottom, together with a selection of fruit trees and established planting.
It provides a wonderful space for family life and offers considerable potential for further landscaping or enhancement.
Although requiring modernisation, Sheldon Road provides an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial 1930s detached family home in a popular and convenient part of Chippenham.
With its generous proportions, three double bedrooms, ample parking, garage and exceptional garden, this is a home that could be transformed to suit a new owner’s tastes while retaining the character and space that make it such an appealing property.
