No Bidding Wars: 3-Bed Abbey Meads Home With Sunny Garden
Three-Bedroom Home in Abbey Meads, Swindon *See Terms and Conditions below*
This house has all the basics covered and then some. Downstairs you’ve got an entrance hall with a cloakroom, a big living room, and a kitchen-diner at the back that feels like the heart of the home. Double doors take you out to a huge deck and a south-facing garden – perfect for BBQs, plants, or just collapsing in the sun. There’s also a garage and driveway parking right out the back, so you’re not fighting for a space.
Upstairs
Three bedrooms in total: Two proper doubles with room for wardrobes and a decent single that works as a bedroom, office, or dressing room. The bathroom is modern and does the job – bath, shower, no updates needed.
Location Highlights
Abbey Meads is one of those areas where you’ve got everything on the doorstep. Shops, schools, cafés, and big supermarkets are all nearby, plus the Orbital Shopping Park if you need a proper spree. For downtime, there are loads of walking routes around Seven Fields and the nature spots nearby, so you don’t have to live in the car to find green space.

Open-plan flow downstairs with living room into kitchen-diner
South-facing garden with large decking area
Three bedrooms (two doubles and a single)
