Description
Offered at online auction, this two-bedroom ground-floor flat is centrally located in Royal Wootton Bassett. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, living room with a door to the front, kitchen/dining room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. The listing describes the property as needing some modernisation and states that it has gas heating and double glazing.
There is a communal garden to the front, with on-street parking available nearby on a first-come, first-served basis. The flat is leasehold, with a new 999-year lease to be created; further information is expected in the legal pack. The agent suggests that, in good order, the property could achieve rental income of about £10,800 per annum.
Royal Wootton Bassett has shops, cafés, schools and other local amenities. Junction 16 of the M4 is approximately three miles away, and Swindon railway station is a short drive from the town. Buyers should review the auction legal pack and confirm the lease and property details before bidding.

Confidence: LOW
At a guide price of £85,000+, this spacious ground-floor two-bedroom flat in central Royal Wootton Bassett has a usable interior and a light modernisation project: refreshing the decoration and flooring would make a clear difference, while the fitted kitchen and accessible-style shower room provide a practical starting point. The maintained communal frontage, double glazing and gas heating add to its appeal. The floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.
Key opportunities
- Refresh dated carpets and decoration to give the living room and bedrooms a more current feel.
- Build on the existing fitted kitchen and practical shower-room setup rather than starting from scratch.
- The spacious ground-floor layout and maintained communal frontage offer a useful base for an owner-occupier or landlord.
