About this home
A little more room, a little more freedom, and a garden full of possibilities!
Some homes just have a little more to offer than you might expect. Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in Shaw, this detached home has a lovely balance of comfortable everyday living and exciting possibilities for the future.
Whether it's enjoying a relaxed evening in the living room, opening the doors from the kitchen/diner onto the garden on a sunny afternoon, or making the most of that extra reception room as a home office, playroom or somewhere to escape with a cuppa, there's flexibility here to make the space your own.
And with three bedrooms, a driveway, an integral garage and a garden with plenty of potential, there's lots to get excited about.
A home with room to make your own
Step inside and you'll find a welcoming living room, offering a comfortable space to put your feet up at the end of the day.
The kitchen/diner sits at the heart of the home, with plenty of room for preparing meals and gathering around the table. Double doors open directly onto the rear garden, making it easy to enjoy a little indoor-outdoor living when the weather plays ball.
But here's where things get particularly interesting. There's a further reception room on the ground floor, giving you options that many homes simply don't have. Perhaps it's a home office, a dedicated playroom, a hobby space or somewhere for teenagers to claim as their own. Alternatively, if you're dreaming of a larger kitchen/dining space, it offers an opportunity to explore how the layout might work for you, subject to the necessary permissions and structural considerations.
A downstairs WC adds a welcome bit of practicality, particularly when friends and family come to visit.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, offering space for a growing family, guests or that all-important work-from-home setup. A family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
Outside space to enjoy
The rear garden is a particularly appealing part of the property. It's a good size and arranged over two distinct areas, with a patio that's ideal for outdoor dining or a morning coffee, alongside a raised lawn providing space to relax, play or simply enjoy a bit of fresh air.
There's also a shed already in place. With a little imagination, could it become something more? A summer house, workshop, creative hideaway or perhaps a useful garden office? The possibilities are there to explore.
To the front, you'll find a driveway providing off-road parking, together with an integral garage offering additional storage space.
And being tucked away in a cul-de-sac means there's no passing traffic outside, helping create a quieter setting away from the hustle and bustle.
--- Life in Shaw
Location matters, and Shaw has plenty going for it.
For everyday essentials, Shaw Village Centre on Ramleaze Drive is close by, with a Tesco Express, pharmacy, dental practice, takeaways and The Village Inn. It's handy to have so much within reach without needing to jump in the car every time you run out of milk.
For families, Brook Field Primary School and Shaw Ridge Primary School are both in the local area.
If getting outdoors is more your thing, you'll be spoilt for choice. Shaw Ridge Linear Park offers pleasant walking routes and links towards the surrounding green spaces, while Shaw Forest Park provides a lovely woodland setting for a walk, cycle or a bit of fresh air. And for a bigger day out, the beautiful grounds of Lydiard Park are nearby, with plenty of space to explore.
Ridge Green Medical Practice is also located in Shaw, adding to the convenience of the area.
When it comes to getting out and about, the property is well placed for access to the A3102 and M4 Junction 16, making travel around Swindon and further afield straightforward. Swindon railway station provides services towards London, Reading, Bristol and beyond.
And if you're looking for something to do at the weekend, Shaw Ridge Leisure Park has plenty on offer, including a cinema, bowling, restaurants and other entertainment.
--- An opportunity for investors, too
With its detached layout, three bedrooms and flexible ground-floor accommodation, this property could also appeal to buy-to-let investors.
Based on the current rental estimate, we would anticipate a potential rental figure in the region of £1,300–£1,400 per calendar month, subject to the property's condition, presentation and the level of demand at the time of letting.
That's an indicative gross annual rental income of approximately £15,600–£16,800, before any running costs, maintenance, management fees, tax or other expenses.
Please note: Rental figures are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Any proposed alterations or changes to the layout would be subject to the relevant planning permissions, building regulations and other necessary consents.
--- THREE BEDROOMS, A DETACHED HOME, AND PLENTY OF ROOM TO MAKE IT YOUR OWN!
