This 2 bedroom bungalow is ideally situated in the friendly town of Melksham situated about 4.5 miles northeast of Trowbridge and 6 miles south of Chippenham.  The town centre is full of independent shops and plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants as well as a library, gym and swimming pool.  It is in a beautiful pocket of rural Wiltshire and there are some beautiful walks in and around Melksham including the river walk along the Avon and was once part of a vast royal forest and a favourite ground of Tudor kings.

It is gaining in popularity due to its ideal location on the A350, a main gateway to the magnificent Wiltshire countryside.  Several bus routes serve Melksham, including the National Express from London, and Melksham trains connect to Bristol, London and Swindon.

The property itself is accessed down a private pedestrian path and through the large front garden down the garden path to the front porch.  This is the ideal space for coats and shoes as well as greeting guests to your home.  From here you enter the sitting room which has a bay window to the front, a door to the inner hall as well as a door and hatch to the kitchen.  The kitchen is to the rear of the property and has ample space for base and wall units but requires updating and modernisation. It leads to the large conservatory which acts as a second reception room and has doors to the garden.  The main bedroom is to the front of the property and also has a bay window and is a large double bedroom.  The second bedroom is to the rear of the property and it is a good sized single.  Also to the rear of the property there is the family bathroom.

Externally there is a lawned front garden and to the rear there is a good sized, if a little over grown, garden with pedestrian rear access.

This property is a real gem in the rough and with the right loving care and attention would make an amazing home.
