High Road, Ashton Keynes, SN6 6NX 3 Bedrooms and annexe 2 Bathrooms 4 Receptions A spacious and mature detached bungalow of over 2000 sq ft, built in 1957, very pleasantly located within a well-regarded and popular Cotswold village, and well-placed for easy access to Cirencester or Swindon. The property enjoys a lovely location that is quiet and tucked-away on the outskirts of the village, yet within reach to local facilities, in particular within walking distance to the village school and shop. The property is larger than its initial appearance might suggest, and has been extended and reconfigured from its origins to now provide a spacious and comfortable detached bungalow with the addition of an annexe, that can either provide independent living accommodation, with its own private entrance, or could easily be utilised to be part of the main accommodation. There is considerable potential for further extension and alterations, subject to the necessary consent. The current layout provides a spacious sitting room that is dual aspect and has French doors to the garden this room provides a lovely open aspect to the garden and land behind, and benefits from a stone fireplace and Clearview wood burner. There is a separate dining room and the kitchen/breakfast room is large and has space for a breakfast table with a side porch. There are two double bedrooms, one of which is triple aspect and the other has an excellent aspect onto the garden and a built-in wardrobe, and there is a bathroom that provides a bath and shower. The adjacent annexe, as described can be utilised as separate private accommodation, perhaps for a teenage or dependent relative facility or, alternatively can be utilised as part of the main dwelling. This accommodation provides an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, bathroom, a fitted kitchen and a UPVC double-glazed conservatory. The bungalow has an oil-fired central heating system and UPVC double-glazed windows. The property is approached over an extensive driveway and turning area and well-tended enclosed gardens that are predominantly lawned, with some attractive flower and shrub borders. The property is situated in gardens and fields extending to 9.7 acres in total as shown edged red strictly for identification purposes upon the OS plan within these details. This includes an orchard and pond.
There is a large hay barn and storage shed within the fields which enjoy access from both High Road and Cricklade Road. There is an area of about half an acre with a range of buildings and open bay sheds/barns. This area has its own vehicular access from the High Road. There is considerable potential to create an equestrian facility, to improve with more modern buildings and stabling, and space to create an arena or ménage facility (subject to consent). Town & Country Planning At present consent for any additional development is most unlikely, but in the event of policy changes in the future, should consent be granted for any additional independent residential dwellings there will be an uplift payable to the current vendors (after successions in title) representing 50% of the increase in the value covering the whole site.
