A Grade II* listed country house in need of complete modernisation and with potential for alternative uses.
Description
Burderop park is an outstanding Grade II* listed country house with scope to return it to its former glory.
The property was created out of a mediaeval farmhouse, itself converted into a courtyard mansion house in the late C16. The C16 building was raised a floor by Smith and the whole stuccoed by Richard Huss of Derby; the dressings are in Cotswold stone from Bibury. The incredible principal staircase was placed in the mediaeval central courtyard which was roofed over and lit by a half-domed, octagonal lantern. Having been previously used as a commercial office this substantial country home extends to approximately 14,000 sqft and includes principle reception rooms complete with sash windows high ceilings and outstanding historical features. Externally there are gardens and grounds of approximately 9 acres including lawned area, tree lined avenues and woodland area.
In addition there is a large original coach house available by separate negotiation.
Location
Burderop Park is in a small hamlet between the villages of Hodson and Wroughton and sits on the edge of the Marlborough Downs and within the North Wessex Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
Burderop Park has great connections to Reading, Heathrow, London and Bristol. Close by is Barbury Castle, a historical landmark, one of several forts located along the ancient Ridge Way path. There are an abundance of nearby amenities and restaurants in Wroughton and Chiseldon, with many shopping opportunities in Swindon. The property has excellent connections, with Swindon train station providing a frequent service to Cheltenham Spa, London and Cardiff. There are bus stops located immediately outside Burderop Park, connecting to nearby villages and central Swindon.

For the sporting enthusiasts, the property sits in the Vale of White Horse country and benefits from Barbury Shooting School which is located less than 3 miles away. Marlborough also offers two Golf Clubs and an abundance of national trails.
