The Common, Holt, Wiltshire, BA14 6QJ

This charming and well-presented detached house occupies a sought-after position in the heart of Holt Village, blending character and comfort with exciting scope for further enhancement. The property stands as an attractive and versatile home, offering generous living spaces and the rare opportunity to extend both outwards and upwards, subject to the necessary consents. Its location, just a short walk from the village’s amenities, adds to its strong appeal for families and professionals alike.

Upon entering, the welcoming hallway leads through to a spacious sitting room filled with natural light, featuring large windows and a traditional feature fireplace that adds warmth and character to the space. The separate dining room also includes an elegant fireplace and boasts attractive rich-coloured wooden floors, creating an inviting setting for formal meals or relaxed gatherings. The modern kitchen at the rear of the house offers a practical and stylish layout, seamlessly connecting to a useful utility room and an adjacent store room, the latter of which features a window and provides a straightforward opportunity to convert into a downstairs cloakroom or W.C if desired.

Upstairs, an airy first floor landing leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering comfort, light, and versatility in use, some of which showcase more of the same lovely wooden floorboards as seen on the ground floor. The family bathroom is a bright and functional partially-tiled space, comprising of a full-length bath with shower overhead, a W.C, a heated towel rail, and a fitted sink, all naturally lit by a large window. The design of the landing and roof space suggests excellent potential for a loft conversion with relatively easy access, adding further value and space to the property (subject to permissions).

Outside, the house is complemented by a generous, level rear garden which enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect and is enclosed for privacy and security, with gated side access. Offering plenty of lawn for the whole family to enjoy, this garden often enjoys sun throughout the day and offers a range of inviting seating areas in which to host and relax, further to a selection of small mature trees and a secure wooden shed for storage. At the front of the property, there is potential to create off-street parking (subject to planning), enhancing practicality for future owners.
