Full Details
The Property
Built in the 1970's and subsequently extended, this excellent family home has been in the same ownership for the last 15 years. It has been well maintained and recent improvements include a new conservatory, simplification of the garden, plus replacement and relocation of the oil fired boiler to the garage, which would now enable the kitchen and breakfast room to be knocked into one if required. The wrap around gardens are a particular feature and extend to about quarter of an acre. The accommodation is very light and airy, with the majority of the living accommodation enjoying south facing windows onto the rear garden.
The Accommodation
Large stone built porch with two archways. Wooden front door leading into the hall with the stairs off and a wet room on the left. On the right is the sitting room which has a stone fireplace fitted with a log burning stove. The room is light and airy enjoying a triple aspect including sliding doors into the conservatory, which has double doors into the garden. Folding doors from the sitting room, plus a door from the hall, lead to the dining room. Next door the breakfast room has double doors into the garden, and a useful shelved cupboard. A door continues to the kitchen, with a range of wall and base cupboards with wood effect work surfaces. The adjoining utility room has space for two under-counter appliances and an internal door to the garage. On the half landing there is a feature stone mullion window with lead lights and secondary glazing. The main landing has a further window and the main airing cupboard with a hot water tank supplying the family bathroom. The main bedroom enjoys a triple aspect and a triple wardrobe plus a vanity basin. In the entrance to the room is a further double wardrobe plus a second airing cupboard with a tank supplying the en suite shower room. Bedrooms three and four both overlook the rear garden with the former having a built-in wardrobe and a shelved cupboard. At the far end bedroom two is again triple aspect with two sets of built-in wardrobes. Next door is the family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

There are two paved seating areas, two sheds and a log store. External power supply and taps both sides of the house.

Location
The hamlet of Hankerton is a quiet settlement roughly midway between the villages of Crudwell and Charlton. There is a good selection of shops and cultural activities in the historic old market town of Malmesbury, five miles south-west, while there is a wider range of amenities seven miles to the north in the lovely Cotswold town of Cirencester. The proximity of the M4 motorway provides excellent communications to Swindon, Bristol and Bath and there is a mainline train service from Kemble, about 6 miles distant.
