Widbrook, Bradford-on-avon, BA15

Set within approximately 3 acres of ground, on the edge of Bradford on Avon, this late 19th Century pair of cottages have been knocked into one, with an extensive two storey addition, creating a wonderful family home.

In brief, the accommodation on the ground floor includes an entrance hall firstly giving access to the two reception rooms. The living room features an attractive fireplace with a working wood burning stove which takes centre stage. The dining room is almost identical in size and also features an attractive stone fireplace, this one being a feature only but could be re-opened for use. The kitchen/breakfast room is off to the left as you enter the home. There are a range of bespoke wall and base units with a free-standing dresser and sideboard, a large central island with double stove oven with induction hob and built-in extraction unit which raises from the island. In the right-hand corner is the Rayburn and there is also a Belfast sink and dishwasher.

In 2022 our vendors have had an incredible sunroom built from Green Oak and glass which is complete with underfloor heating and looks over the gardens, providing a fabulous, well-proportioned entertaining space.

There is also a well-appointed utility room, a downstairs w.c and an integral double garage.

On the first floor there are five bedrooms, the family bathroom and a separate shower room. The master bedroom is an impressive, exceptionally spacious, twin aspect room with a dressing room and an en-suite. There are three single bedrooms and one double.

OUTSIDE

The grounds measure approximately 3 acres in total. The house is approached via a private gated sweeping driveway which leads to the side of the house where there is off-road parking for up to ten vehicles. The majority of the grounds are laid to level lawn with a number of mature trees and shrubs, a large patio seating area and a beautiful, wooded section with wildflowers. The combination of being within a stroll of the town centre and having this level of ground is unique and an early viewing is advised to avoid disappointment.
