AI Summary
This is a well-presented detached family home in a convenient Chippenham location, formerly a show home, with a south-facing garden, double garage, and a strong EPC B rating. The asking price of £495,000 sits modestly above the local comp median of £480,000, so buyers should be aware they are paying a slight premium — though the no-chain position and family-friendly credentials offer genuine appeal. The main considerations are the artex ceilings (which require an asbestos survey before any works), the softening local price trend, and the fact that comparable sales data is thin for the most recent 12 months.
