2 bedroom house

Number 5 Bleet is one of a small cluster of cottages located between the villages of Steeple Ashton and Great Hinton. The cottage offers a huge amount of charm and character with period features throughout, together with the potential scope to extend the existing accommodation or to redevelop the site entirely, subject of course to gaining the necessary consents.

The cottage is approached via an access drive which is shared with the neighbouring cottages and then becomes a bridleway. To the front of the cottage is an enclosed porch which opens in to the main reception room. This room has a brick open fireplace and exposed beams. A door leads to through to the second reception room which also offers a brick fireplace together with exposed stone walls and a red brick floor. From here doors lead to the kitchen, utility room and bathroom.

On the first floor there is a large double bedroom with period fireplace and a door leading to the second room which is built into the eaves with exposed beams and a window looking to over the garden. 

OUTSIDE The garden to the front has now been enclosed by a low hedge but was previously used for parking for the cottage. The garden to the rear and side are laid to a mixture of lawn with some mature shrubs and former vegetable garden. There is a detached red brick former pig sty with outside WC to the side, which provides a useful garden store.
Beyond the garden and running alongside the bridleway is the paddock which slopes very gently towards the far end, where there is a vehicular gated access.
In total 5 Bleet stands in approximately 0.61 acres. 

LOCATION 5 Bleet is located between the villages of Great Hinton and Steeple Ashton with Steeple Ashton providing a village shop, primary school and public house. Additional facilities can be found in Trowbridge, Melksham and Devizes. Road and rail communications are excellent with the A350 being close by along with main line rail services from Trowbridge and Westbury. The cottage also has the benefit of being set in a rural position with access to superb walking.
