Description

This detached three-bedroom house is situated in the central area of Holt Village, presenting a blend of charm and comfort with considerable renovation possibilities. The property offers a spacious layout that can accommodate various lifestyle needs while also providing potential for expansion, either outward or upward, pending necessary approvals. Upon entry, you are greeted by a bright hallway that leads to a generous sitting room. The large windows invite ample natural light, and the traditional fireplace serves as a focal point that enhances the room’s character. Adjacent to this is a separate dining room, which features beautiful wooden flooring and another fireplace, making it an appealing space for both casual meals and formal gatherings. The modern kitchen located at the rear connects seamlessly with a utility room and an additional store room; the latter could be easily repurposed into a cloakroom or W.C., offering enhanced functionality. The first floor comprises three spacious double bedrooms, each benefiting from good natural light and flexible usage options. Some rooms retain the attractive wooden floors found on the ground level, adding to the home’s overall aesthetic. The family bathroom is practical and well-lit, featuring essential amenities including a full-length bath with shower overhead and heated towel rail. There is also strong potential for creating additional living space through a loft conversion, thanks to convenient access to the roof space (subject to planning). Externally, the property boasts a sizable rear garden with a south-facing aspect that enjoys sunlight throughout most of the day. This private outdoor space includes various seating areas ideal for relaxation or entertaining, along with mature trees and a secure wooden shed for storage. Additionally, there is potential to establish off-street parking at the front of the property. Holt Village offers numerous benefits as a location; it's approximately two miles from Bradford on Avon—known for its efficient train links to Bath, Bristol, and London—and within easy reach of Melksham and Trowbridge. A convenient bus service nearby provides access to multiple destinations. Local amenities include a well-stocked general store, public houses, primary school, post office, recreational facilities such as tennis courts and children's play areas—all situated close by. Residents can also enjoy walks in scenic surroundings and proximity to National Trust properties like The Courts Gardens and Chalfield Manor. This property not only serves as an inviting family home but also holds significant investment potential due to its desirable location and scope for enhancement.
