Positioned along St Philips Road in Upper Stratton, this charming stone-built cottage is believed to date back to around 1870 and offers significantly more space than its attractive frontage might initially suggest.
Open House - Saturday 26th September - By appointment only.
Arranged across three floors and extending to approximately 1,290 sq ft, excluding the workshop and additional outbuildings, the property combines period charm with generous, flexible accommodation.
The ground floor begins with a comfortable sitting room, providing a welcoming space in which to relax. Beyond this is the particularly spacious dining room, measuring approximately 16'3" x 11'2", with plenty of room for family dining and entertaining.
The kitchen measures approximately 11'1" x 9'0" and provides a practical workspace, while the ground-floor bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite. Together, the two reception rooms create excellent flexibility for family life, entertaining or working from home.
On the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal first-floor bedroom benefits from a fitted wardrobe, while the second bedroom offers comfortable space for a double bed. A separate WC also serves this floor.
A staircase continues to the second floor, where an impressive top-floor bedroom/loft room measures approximately 21'7" x 14'9". This substantial and versatile room offers a range of possibilities and could be used as a bedroom, home office, hobby room or creative space, depending on the buyer’s requirements.
Outside, the property really comes into its own. The surprisingly large and established rear garden provides plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining and family life, while the summer house offers a peaceful place from which to enjoy the surroundings.
For anyone requiring serious workshop, storage or business space, the substantial detached workshop is an exceptional feature. Divided into two generous areas measuring approximately 19'7" x 21'9" and 19'7" x 19'5", it could suit a wide variety of hobbies, trades or other uses, subject to any necessary permissions. A separate shed provides further storage.
The property also benefits from driveway parking and is conveniently positioned for local shops, schools and everyday amenities, with access to Swindon town centre and the A419.
A distinctive period home offering approximately 1,290 sq ft of internal accommodation, an exceptional garden and an outstanding range of outbuildings, 5 St Philips Road must be viewed to appreciate the space and possibilities on offer.
