3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Ford, Chippenham SN14

A Charming and Practical Family Home in the Pretty Hamlet of Ford.
Set in the highly sought-after hamlet of Ford, just moments from the much-loved White Hart pub, this delightful semi-detached, family home enjoys beautiful valley views, access to scenic countryside walks, and a peaceful village atmosphere. Ideally located within easy reach of Chippenham, with excellent transport connections nearby, the property offers the perfect balance of rural living and everyday convenience.

The current owners have carefully updated the home to create a stylish, welcoming interior, perfectly suited to modern family life.

Ground Floor
A welcoming entrance hallway provides practical space for coats and boots and leads through to the heart of the home, a contemporary kitchen/diner. This is also accessed via double patio doors directly from the wooden decking area to the front of the property. Beautifully presented, the kitchen offers generous cabinetry and space for all appliances, including a large fridge freezer, washing machine, electric oven, and induction hob. A central island with a second integrated induction hob provides an ideal spot for casual dining, while there is also room for a small dining table or sofa, making the space perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The oil fired boiler is located within an under stairs cupboard which with some rethinking of the space could potentially be made into a downstairs cloakroom and loo.

The kitchen opens via double patio doors directly onto the rear garden and sits alongside the attached studio, a wonderfully versatile space suitable for a home office, second sitting room, gym, or creative studio. The adjacent patio encourages relaxed indoor-outdoor living and offers excellent potential to extend (subject to planning), whether via a conservatory-style addition or an oak-framed extension.

From the hallway, a door leads into the spacious lounge, which easily accommodates large sofas and features a wood-burning fire. This cosy yet light-filled room enjoys a rear-facing window overlooking the garden, with scope to add double doors to create direct garden access, ideal for summer entertaining.

First Floor
The first floor comprises two generous double bedrooms, with built-in storage in the main bedroom and a large over-stairs cupboard in the second. A versatile third bedroom, currently fitted with a cabin bed, would suit a nursery, single bedroom, home office, or study. The modern family bathroom includes a bath with over-bath shower and WC. Additional storage may be available within the loft.

Outside
The sunny rear garden is ideal for outdoor living, offering ample space for a patio or decking area, perfect for al fresco dining, an outdoor kitchen, or a built-in barbecue. The garden is arranged over two levels with a small set of steps midway and enjoys fantastic open views across the surrounding landscape from the rear perimeter fence. There is ample space for a large shed and the oil tank is housed to the rear of the studio.

To the front, there is a neat garden area and decking. Parking is available on-street and with a small communal car park situated diagonally opposite.

Location
Ford lies approximately 15 minutes from Chippenham, 5 minutes from the picturesque village of Biddestone, and 11 minutes from the historic town of Corsham, famed for its wandering peacocks and strong community spirit. Corsham offers a range of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants, along with the Pound Arts Centre, St Bartholomew’s Church, and the beautiful grounds of Corsham Court.

The pretty village of Colerne is a short drive away and has a local primary school, two pubs and a local convenience store.

Sports and leisure facilities are located at Springfield Campus in Corsham, with rugby, cricket, and football clubs also affiliated to the other local towns. Families are well served by excellent local schooling, as well as highly regarded private schools in Corsham and nearby Bath.

Commuters benefit from regular bus services to Bath and Chippenham, both of which offer mainline rail connections to London Paddington in just over an hour.
