Description
The Saddler’s and The Cottage presents the superb opportunity to purchase a pair of character cottages together with a generous 0.60 acre plot, located in the very heart of the popular village of Grittleton known for its strong sense of community and excellent village pub. Originally built as four cottages in the early 19th Century as part of the Neeld Estate, the properties are Grade II listed boasting magnificent features such as ornate barge boarded gables, iron lattice windows and exposed timber beams.
The properties require refurbishment and renovation with The Cottage in particular requiring an extensive amount of work having not been occupied since the 1980s. Being sold as a pair, there is fantastic potential to convert the whole into one substantial dwelling (subject to planning) coupled with the very large garden or retain them as separate properties and utilise The Cottage as an annexe.
The Saddler’s, formerly known as Rose Cottage, spans over 2,300 sq.ft. across two floors with the addition of a large, beamed attic which is accessed by stairs and therefore could be converted into further accommodation. The property offers generous ground floor space with three reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, and office. Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an occasional fifth bedroom/study.
Adjoining The Saddler’s to the westerly side, The Cottage is its own entity with a separate title deed, entrance and garden. The cottage is in a derelict state needing full restoration comprising two reception rooms, a kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
As a whole, the plot extends to around 0.60 acres and has a lovely position backing onto fields. A driveway to the side of The Saddler’s accesses the private parking at the rear in front of a double garage. The gardens are an excellent feature extending some 200ft to the rear and wrapping around the adjoining cottage.
Situation
Grittleton is a popular and peaceful North Wiltshire village with an excellent community and amenities including The Neeld Arms public house, Church, tennis and cricket clubs whilst the neighbouring villages of Hullavington and of Yatton Keynell offer a post office/stores, doctors surgery and primary schools. A more comprehensive range of facilities are found in the nearby towns of Chippenham and Malmesbury. The cultural cities of Bath and Bristol are about 20 minutes by car whilst for those needing to travel further afield, there are frequent inter-city train services at Chippenham and both the M4 Junctions 17 and 18 are about 10 minutes' drive away providing access to Bristol, London, the South and the Midlands.
