Description

35-36 Cuckoo's Knob is believed to date from the 19th Century and was extensively renovated and extended in the mid-2000s, enjoying a delightful, peaceful location on the edge of the village of Wootton Rivers. With good ceiling heights and an abundance of natural light it offers a lovely home, beautifully presented throughout with spacious accommodation arranged over two floors.

The sitting room is a delight. Centred around the fireplace with wood burning stove, it is spacious yet retains a cosy feel and is flooded with natural light and double doors lead out to the garden beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of units including a central island and double doors opening out onto the paved terrace. The formal dining room is positioned in the middle of the property and is an excellent space for hosting families/friends and larger parties. This room is an incredibly flexible space and could double up as a games room or family/playroom.

Adjoining the kitchen is the useful utility/boot room with direct access to the garden and the modern full height and fully tanked cellar is accessed off the kitchen offering very useful additional storage space. The downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the landing leads off to all four bedrooms with incredible vaulted ceilings running throughout this floor. The expansive principal bedroom enjoys grand proportions with the added benefit of an ensuite shower room and separate walk-in wardrobe. The main guest room is located at the far end of the house and also boasts ensuite facilities. Every bedroom enjoys direct views over the garden with the two remaining double bedrooms being served by the well-appointed family shower room.

The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of this charming property, with a level south facing lawn and well stocked beds with a wide array of perennials, shrubs and fruit trees. The beautifully kept garden provides a lovely entrance to the house with a large paved terrace, accessed off the kitchen/dining room, the ideal spot for alfresco dining.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
