65, Slade Drive, Swindon, SN3 4DS

A Home That’s Been Thought About, Not Just Decorated There are some houses where you walk in and immediately see that the owners have really thought about how the space should work.

This is one of them.

Set back off Oxford Road on Slade Drive, this three-bedroom semi-detached home gives you a great combination of modern open-plan living, plenty of parking and a corner-plot garden that offers much more outside space than you might expect.

Pull onto the driveway and there’s a decent amount of parking, with plenty of space for visitors too.

Through the entrance porch you arrive in the hallway, and immediately to your right is one of our favourite parts of the house. The kitchen has been really thoughtfully designed.

There’s plenty of worktop space, loads of storage and integrated appliances, but what makes it work so well is how it connects with the rest of the ground floor.

The kitchen wraps around into the dining area and then flows straight through to the living room, creating one large open-plan space. It’s exactly the sort of layout that works for modern-day life.

You can be cooking dinner while the kids are doing their homework at the table, or have friends over without whoever’s in the kitchen disappearing from the conversation.

It feels sociable, practical and, most importantly, like a space you’ll actually use. There’s also a downstairs WC tucked neatly beneath the stairs.

Head upstairs and you’ll find two traditional double bedrooms alongside a good-sized single.

The third bedroom is currently being used as a study, which shows just how easily the house can adapt if you work from home or don’t necessarily need three bedrooms every day.

There’s also a family bathroom completing the first floor. Then there’s the garden. Being positioned on a corner plot makes a real difference.

The garden is substantial, wrapping around the property and giving you plenty of space to enjoy when the sun decides to make an appearance. And when it does, this garden is a proper little sun trap.

There’s also a really useful outbuilding. Home office? Gym? Hobby room? Somewhere to escape for an hour? You’ve got options without having to sacrifice one of the bedrooms upstairs.

Location-wise, you’re incredibly convenient for Greenbridge Retail Park, while access towards the M4 and Oxford is straightforward too.

For a first-time buyer who wants a home they can grow into rather than quickly grow out of, this makes a lot of sense.

Equally, if you’re downsizing but aren’t quite ready to give up your garden, parking or useful extra space, it could be a really good fit. Good parking. A fantastic open-plan ground floor.

Three bedrooms. A substantial corner garden. And an outbuilding you can actually do something with. There’s a lot of house here.
