Pound Pill, Corsham, SN13

Located in a private position within walking distance of Corsham’ s historic High Street and local primary and secondary schools, Pound End Cottage is currently arranged as a five-bedroom detached family home with large gardens, plenty of private parking and oozes charm and character. Grade II listed and dating back to the 18th century when it was originally two workers cottages, Pound End Cottage now combines period character and modern living with flexible accommodation throughout. On the ground floor there is a superb ‘L-shaped’ kitchen / family room which truly is the heart of the home. The kitchen comprises of ‘shaker-style’ fitted units and built-in appliances as well as limestone tiled flooring to create a modern and contemporary space. The kitchen flows naturally to both the formal dining area with open fire (measuring 16’6” x 13’) and family room (measuring 22’3” x 11’6”) with both benefitting from views and access to the patio area at the front. Further to this open-plan space, there is a separate sitting room accessed via the family room. The sitting room benefits from natural light throughout the day aided by multiple windows and doors out to the patio. To complete the ground floor there is currently a downstairs bedroom (bedroom five), which would also make a fantastic home office, and a recently updated downstairs WC.

Moving through the ground floor there are two separate staircases that give access to the first floor. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms with views over the front of the property. The modern family bathroom is an excellent size and benefits from a white suite with bath and separate shower cubicle. Finally, a staircase to the second floor leads to bedroom four. With characterful beams and built-in wardrobes, this would make an ideal children’s / spare room, or second office space if required.

Externally, Pound End Cottage is accessed via electric gates from Pound Pill and benefits from a right of access to its own private driveway where there is gravel parking for multiple vehicles and space for a storage shed. Nestled at the front of the property is a large and very private south facing patio area which is the perfect spot for al-fresco dining and BBQ’s during the summer months. Beyond the driveway there is also another garden to the rear of the property which is currently laid to lawn. This space could be further landscaped to create another seating area or used as it is as the perfect play area for children. There is no access over the property by neighbours and the large plot is very private given its proximity to town.
