Description
Positioned down a quiet no-through lane, this end of terraced double-fronted period cottage is located within the picturesque village of Kington Langley, with excellent networks to Chippenham and the M4 corridor.

The living room features a fireplace with fitted storage surrounds. The extended kitchen/dining room is flooded with natural light through double doors flowing out to the sunny garden. To the side, there is a rear lobby and downstairs WC. On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms and a bathroom with a shower over the bath. Velux windows have been installed within the attic ready for conversion.
The rear garden is a wonderful aspect of the property spanning to some 90ft long enjoying a lovely southerly orientation and a good degree of seclusion. The garden is filled with mature shrub and flower borders and landscaped into various areas including a patio terrace off the kitchen double doors, a good-sized lawn and a vegetable garden arranged at the far end beside a covered timber seating area and three timber sheds. There is off-street parking in front of the cottage for 2 cars and side access to the garden.
