DESCRIPTION
The property has huge scope to further extend and re-configure to greatly enhance the value and is a very charming detached three bedroom Cottage. Originally part of the nearby farm, and having a southerly aspect with stunning views across the valley in this stunning rural setting, it sits only 5 miles from the centre of Bath. The property is built of local honey coloured stone elevations with stone mullioned leaded windows under a Cotswold stone tile pitched roof and having light and spacious accommodation across two floors. The house is surrounded by a lovely garden enclosed by high hedges with a gate giving pedestrian access to the front door. A five bar wooden gate leads from the lane at the side to a further large lawn garden area where there is a stone built five bay cart shed, again with a stone tile roof.

SITUATION
The Cottage lies in the pretty rural hamlet of Lower Shockerwick, in an enviable position to the northeast of the historic city of Bath and on the southern tip of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Local amenities are available in both Bathford and Batheaston, both of which have active village communities. Bathford offers a church, pub and village shop, whilst a primary and pre-school, churches, post office, pubs, general stores and medical facilities are available in Batheaston. Additional nearby villages include Colerne, Box and Corsham with a full range of amenities available in Bath and Chippenham, both of which have rail links to London (Paddington). The city of Bath is a World Heritage Site famed for its Georgian architecture and Roman heritage and offers excellent schools in both the state and private sectors, along with two universities.

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
Wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
You get more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
Brokers can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
Are typically easier to get in contact with, less bureaucratic.

However with your bank maybe able to:

Build off existing relationship (discounts if you have a checking/saving account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Perhaps more trustworthy, more accountable than a smaller shop
Lower interest rates in some cases
Ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
