Detached homes average £389,000 and semis £277,000, both cheaper than you'd find in neighbouring Bowerhill. Forest and Sandridge Church of England Primary School is rated Good by Ofsted, so families have a solid local schooling option. The A350 and A365 make it easy to drive to Chippenham, Bath and the M4, though public transport is limited, so you'll want to budget for a car. Living costs sit close to the UK average — lower transport spending helps offset the higher council tax.
