Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Swindon, SN6 :
A substantial detached family home, originally constructed in 1898 and sold by the Church in 1935. The property is not thought to be listed but does lie within a conservation area and benefits from many attractive original features, including the spacious porch and entrance hall and the dramatic staircase rising to a galleried landing with stained glass roof light above.
The accommodation has been refurbished by the present owners in the past twelve years and the property is presented to a high standard.
Visitors are welcomed into a central hall which provides an excellent first impression and from which all the principal reception rooms lead off. These include an attractive sitting room with open fireplace and bay window, a spacious dining room, a study/family room, and a superb family kitchen/breakfast room which has been extensively fitted and includes granite worktops, a Rangemaster gas-fired cooker and integrated dishwasher. A modern cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Steps lead down from the entrance hall into the cellar, which offers a utility room, wine store and drying room, all with good head room.
On the first floor, four spacious double bedrooms all have fitted wardrobes, with the largest having a generously sized en suite bathroom which has been refitted with a white suite including a roll-top bath and a large walk-in shower cubicle. Bedroom Five houses the airing cupboard, and the family bathroom also boasts a refitted modern suite including a large walk-in shower and panelled bath.
Bedroom Three has steps down to a snug/TV room which, in turn, gives access into a large hobbies room. These two rooms lie above the garage and provide potential for a separate annexe. The TV room can also be accessed via a staircase from the kitchen.
Outside, the property has gardens of just over half an acre, which include a large driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles and leading to the double garage. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn with a large patio and back on to open fields. To the rear of The Old Vicarage is a garden shed and the oil storage tank. N.B. The local vicar has a pedestrian right of way across the driveway to access the vestry of the church (at which one service is held per month), which provides one of the boundaries of the driveway.
AMENITIES The village of Bourton is picturesquely situated in the Vale of the White Horse and on the western boundary of Oxfordshire and yet within easy reach of Swindon and the M4 as well as Oxford and the A34/M40 via the A420. There is a very popular co-educational preparatory school, Pinewood School, in the former Bourton House and a village hall in the former Baptist church. St James' parish church is part of a Church of England benefice with six neighbouring churches.
Nearby Shrivenham is one of the larger villages within the Vale of the White Horse. The village itself has an extremely active community and a bypass built in 1984 ensures that Shrivenham's rural atmosphere is preserved. There is a lovely tree-lined high street with shops, a bank, public houses, a doctors' surgery, village primary school and impressive Church, parts dating back to the 11th Century. There is also a golf course.
