Alexander Terrace, Corsham

Quite simply a tastefully modernised and extended cottage, retaining some character features, but now boasting modern fittings and a crisp fresh feel. Through the front door, and the sitting room gives you a glimpse of what is to come. Modern wood style flooring gives a light finish to a room where you could cosy up around the TV. A central fireplace (potential to reopen) retains that character feel and useful shelving is fitted to one side of the chimney breast. Through the door and beautiful kitchen/breakfast room opens up in front of you. The size is a real surprise and the modern units are carefully planned in to the space, with a breakfast bar, space for a small sofa/chair or table as well. 

The cabinets are a modern shaker style, with a solid worktop above, Integrated appliances include a double oven, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. Clever storage is maximised with corner swivel inserts, a larder cupboard and large pan drawers. The large lantern roof floods the room with light in the day and recessed spotlights are set into the ceiling. French doors open up onto the garden, allowing an easy way to entertain friends and family Al Fresco. The useful, modern downstairs WC is a real practical bonus for a period home. 

Upstairs and the landing gives access to 2 double bedrooms. The first, set at the front, has a lovely feature fireplace and the 2nd towards the rear also has a Victorian cast iron fireplace to add that character. The main bathroom is located off this bedroom and acts as a superb en suite, with a bath with shower over and modern fittings throughout. The airing cupboard is a useful space for laundry, but also houses the modern Worcester boiler. 

Outside and the generous garden follows a similar beautifully presented theme, with a large paved patio area for seating and eating and side gate back to the front. The remainder is landscaped with practical raised borders which are stocked with a wide variety of plants. Gravel pathways give access all around those beds and also lead to another patio area at the far end of the garden. Here a large, substantially built summerhouse offers a place to relax or alternatively a "work from home" office option or studio as it already has light and power sockets in place. A really useful addition to this long garden. At the front is a walled front garden space which is softened by hedging and offers a great place to store the bins. 

Parking is on the street and the location is in a quiet road. The property has had a new roof and double glazing last year, and has also been re wired in recent years and also has a recently serviced modern Worcester Combi boiler. 

Alexander Terrace is in the heart of historic Corsham with its wandering peacocks and a fabulous range of amenities and shops. A short walk away is the high street with all the excellent independent shops, a huge variety of restaurants and cafes, the Pound Arts centre, St Bartholomew's church, and the wonderful walks at Corsham Court. For sports enthusiasts, the Springfield campus is also a short walk away, Precision Pilates for classes, and the rugby, cricket, and football clubs are also within easy walking distance for most. The wide range of local schools are also all accessible by foot. The bus service from Corsham runs regularly to Bath and Chippenham stopping outside both mainline rail stations where you can access London Paddington in just over an hour.
