SOLD!
Braydon is a small rural hamlet situated within the M4 corridor and we understand there is a good local community. Nearby Royal Wootton Bassett has a wide range of shopping facilities and amenities and a busy high street with a number of small independent shops as well as supermarkets, etc. the M4 (junction 16) is also readily accessible to the property to the south, also the pretty towns of Cricklade and Malmesbury are both within easy access.
The property itself has been extensively refurbished by the vendors and in the agents opinion offers comfortable and contemporary living with a very nice open plan living kitchen / dining room as well as a recently fitted ground floor shower room and WC. There is also a utility room and sitting room to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a recently fitted spacious shower room to the first floor.
The property has been utilised by the vendors for private residential and private equestrian use with superb equestrian facilities including a recently erected American barn stable building, adjoining manege and paddocks.
We understand the property falls within both the country as well as the Vale of the White Horse, and there are various local pony club meets. The property is also within short boxing distance of the Cotswold Water Park where there are rides and there are bridleways in the area including Ravensroost Woods nearby.
Locally there is both state and private schooling including Hatherop Castle, Prior Park in Cricklade as well as schools and colleges in Cirencester.

Planning Note: In November 2004, the previous owner applied for Planning Permission for a substantial rear extension to the property and a double garage. Planning Application Ref: 04/02877/FUL. Documents for this maybe viewed online at www.wiltshire.gov.uk
We understand this Planning Permission could be extant due to some of the works having been undertaken, however this would need to be clarified and verified with the local council
OUTSIDE, OUTBUILDINGS & LAND
The property is approached off the B road initially by turning left into a roadway which leads down to a farm. There are two entrances into the property, the first leading to the house and gardens, the second beyond, giving access to the land and equestrian facilities. The double gated access leads onto a gravelled driveway with a parking and turning area to the side with space for a number of cars. There are front lawned areas with chestnut and cherry trees whilst round to the rear there is a large and very private decked area with further lawns beyond and a number of raised beds. There is a rear outside boiler and oil storage tank within the gardens there is also a garden shed. The vendors have also made this garden area as dog proof as possible.
The Superb Equestrian Facilities adjoin the house and gardens. The vendors have invested a lot of time and money into producing hardcore roadways which provide excellent access to both the equestrian facilities and to the paddocks with central roadway leading down through the main paddocks.
