4 bed detached house for sale

Oxford Road, Calne, Wiltshire SN11

Description

Occupying an impressive plot of approximately 0.44 acres, this attractive detached period home presents an exciting opportunity for those seeking a substantial renovation project in a desirable Calne location.

Requiring complete modernisation throughout, the property offers immense scope to create a stunning family residence tailored to individual tastes and requirements. The existing dwelling is rich in character, with a traditional stone façade and established grounds that provide a wonderful sense of privacy and maturity.

The extensive plot offers significant potential to extend and reconfigure the existing accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents, allowing purchasers to maximise the full potential of this unique site. The gardens, currently natural and overgrown, provide a superb blank canvas for landscaping and outdoor entertaining.

A particular feature of the property is the detached barn/outbuilding, which presents a wealth of possibilities. Whether transformed into a home office, gym, studio, workshop or guest accommodation, the building offers excellent versatility. There is also potential for conversion into a separate dwelling, subject to obtaining the relevant planning permissions.

Opportunities of this nature are increasingly rare; combining a detached period property, substantial grounds, and genuine development potential in one compelling package. Ideal for builders, developers, investors, or private buyers looking to create a truly special home.
