About this home

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Could This Be The Best-Kept Secret In North Swindon?   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Some homes tick boxes. This one creates a feeling.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Tucked away on the edge of a sought-after North Swindon development, this beautifully presented detached family home offers something that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find… space, privacy, and a genuine connection to the outdoors.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice that this home feels different. With open green space directly opposite, the outlook is wonderfully leafy and peaceful. In fact, if it weren’t for the convenience of having everything nearby, you could easily believe you were living in the countryside.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Step through the entrance porch and into a welcoming, generously sized hallway that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home. Every room feels spacious, every corner feels considered, and there’s a lovely flow throughout.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The dual-aspect living room is a wonderful place to unwind. Flooded with natural light and offering French doors that open directly onto the garden, it’s equally suited to cosy evenings in or summer gatherings that spill effortlessly outdoors.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The dining room enjoys a pleasant rear aspect and creates the perfect setting for family meals, celebrations, and those long Sunday lunches that somehow turn into evening chats.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The kitchen sits at the heart of the home and overlooks the rear garden, with direct access outside. Whether you’re preparing a quick breakfast before school runs or hosting friends for dinner, this is a space that works hard while remaining wonderfully practical. The adjoining utility room provides additional storage and workspace, along with its own garden access.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Working from home? The front-facing study offers a dedicated space away from the bustle of family life, whilst the cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Upstairs, the sense of space continues.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A large landing connects four genuinely generous bedrooms. And when we say generous, we mean it. One of the things the current owners have particularly loved is that there are no compromised bedrooms here. No box rooms pretending to be bedrooms. Just proper, comfortable spaces where everyone gets room to breathe.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Two bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Outside is where this home really starts to tug on the heartstrings.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To the front, a charming enclosed cottage-style garden creates a lovely first impression and adds character rarely found on modern developments.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To the rear, the garden feels like your own private retreat. Mature silver birch trees gently sway overhead, blossom trees bring seasonal colour, and the combination of lawned areas and multiple seating spaces means there’s always a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee, an afternoon read, or a glass of something chilled as the sun begins to set.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A driveway provides ample parking and leads to the double garage, offering excellent storage, workshop potential, or secure parking.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The best part? The hard work has already been done. The property is immaculately presented throughout, meaning the next owners can simply move in, unpack, and start enjoying everything this wonderful home has to offer. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Location, Location… And Then Some   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the biggest attractions of this location is how brilliantly it balances convenience with lifestyle.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Directly opposite you’ll find open green space that gives the home its wonderfully private and semi-rural feel. Perfect for dog walks, morning jogs, family strolls, or simply enjoying the view from your front window.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Families are particularly well catered for, with Orchid Vale Primary School, Tadpole Farm C of E Primary Academy, Red Oaks Primary School and Abbey Park School all within easy reach. Great Western Academy is also nearby for secondary education options.    <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For everyday essentials, you’ll find Tesco Express at Redhouse Village Centre close by, while the North Swindon District Centre offers Lidl, Marks & Spencer Foodhall, Asda and a variety of cafés and eateries.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If keeping active is important, the nearby Orbital area provides gym and swimming facilities, while the surrounding green spaces and walking routes offer plenty of opportunities to get outdoors.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Healthcare is well served with local GP practices and NHS services nearby within North Swindon.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For commuters, the location is particularly appealing. Swindon Railway Station is approximately three miles away, providing direct services to London Paddington, Bristol and beyond. The A419 is easily accessible, linking quickly to the M4, making journeys towards Bristol, Reading, Oxford and the wider South West refreshingly straightforward. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Thinking Like An Investor?   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">While this home will undoubtedly appeal to families seeking long-term happiness, investors may also appreciate its strong rental appeal.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With its generous room sizes, multiple reception rooms, double garage, sought-after school catchments and excellent commuter links, we would anticipate a rental income in the region of £2,000-£2,100 per calendar month, subject to market conditions and individual circumstances. <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One Last Thing…   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Homes like this have a habit of making people feel settled before they’ve even moved in.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Perhaps it’s the peaceful outlook. Perhaps it’s the abundance of space. Perhaps it’s the garden that quietly whispers “stay a little longer”.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Whatever it is, if you’re already imagining where the furniture would go, where you’d enjoy your morning coffee, or how good that first summer barbecue might be, we’d suggest listening to that feeling.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Some houses are easy to compare. This isn’t one of them. The combination of generous room sizes, beautiful gardens, open green views and immaculate presentation places it amongst the most desirable family homes in the area. Properties offering this kind of lifestyle are increasingly achieving between £530,000 and £550,000, and once you’ve experienced it for yourself, we think you’ll see exactly why.   <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Give Ashley at EweMove Swindon a call and come see whether this could be the one that’s been waiting for ewe all along.
