South Street, Corsham

Offered for sale with no onward chain, this handsome period home is situated in one of the most sought-after areas of Corsham, a short stroll from the picturesque High Street, a vast array of local amenities, and well regarded Primary and Secondary Schools. Extremely rare for properties in this location, the property enjoys off-street parking for multiple vehicles, and a large garden to the rear offering huge potential to extend, as well as an opportunity to develop the dilapidated stone outbuildings.

Offering over 1500 sq ft of light & airy accommodation, the property enjoys plenty of Victorian charm with original fireplaces and glorious high ceilings. The ground floor has an entrance to the front into the hallway, which has a cloakroom wc off, and a rear entrance leading into a spacious dual aspect kitchen/diner, which has a range of fitted units, electric double oven, gas hob, integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, as well as space for a tumble dryer if required. The 24ft living room runs the depth of the property and has two fireplaces (one of which is not currently in use), and there is a further reception room with fireplace to the front of the property.

The first floor has three double bedrooms, all with fireplaces, a further single bedroom, and a large family bathroom with bath, separate double walk-in shower and a spacious airing cupboard.

Externally, as previously mentioned, the property benefits from the rare bonus of off-street parking for multiple vehicles as well as a large rear garden enclosed by stone walling, and the remains of a stone outbuilding, which offers huge potential to develop.

Corsham town centre and picturesque High Street offers an excellent range of amenities including primary schools, a secondary school, Springfield community campus which includes a library and a sports centre with swimming pool.

Corsham was historically a centre for agriculture and later the wool industry and remains a focus for quarrying Bath stone. It is also home to a major administrative and manufacturing centre for the Ministry of Defence, with numerous establishments both above ground and in the old quarry tunnels.

The town enjoys a frequent role in the film industry, with its picturesque high street providing an ideal location for many major film and television productions, and with a thriving weekly market, and Corsham Court's resident peacocks wandering the streets, it is a wonderful town to make your home.
