High Street, Box

We are delighted to bring to the market this charming late 17th century cottage in the heart of the beautiful, sought after village of Box. This unique one of a kind property has so much to offer its next owner. Arranged over three floors, with an array of period features including traditional sash windows, open fireplaces, exposed stonework and beams, and much more.

Situated a stones throw from Box recreation ground and the highly regarded primary school, there are open countryside & riverside woodland walks to discover, along with the added convenience of a bus stop on the doorstep which provides quick & easy access to Bath in one direction and Corsham in the other, the cottage enjoys a wonderful location. It also has the very rare benefit of being a property in the heart of the village that has off-road parking, as well as enchanting private gardens to the front and rear, with the rear garden having a west facing aspect to enjoy glorious sunsets.

Having been extensively upgraded and re-furbished throughout to a fantastic specification, the cottage offers over 1500 sq.ft. of flexible, character filled accommodation, with four double bedrooms (one on the ground floor which could also be used as a spacious study), two bathrooms as well as a ground floor wc, glorious kitchen/dining room, living room with woodburner, and a utility room.

Brand new water mains, pipework and gas combination boiler have been installed, along with brand new consumer unit and electrical wiring throughout, as well as significant upgrades to all insulation, giving new owners complete peace of mind over all aspects of the property.

Externally, there are enchanting gardens to the front and rear of the property, with the rear garden having been uniquely landscaped and enjoys a four person sauna and outside shower. The garden enjoys complete privacy as well as a west facing aspect.

For those looking for a property with serious income potential, the cottage has recently been used as a successful Airbnb at £725 per night.
