Description
This 2 bedroom bungalow is ideally situated in the friendly town of Melksham situated about 4.5 miles northeast of Trowbridge and 6 miles south of Chippenham. The town centre is full of independent shops and plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants as well as a library, gym and swimming pool. It is in a beautiful pocket of rural Wiltshire and there are some beautiful walks in and around Melksham including the river walk along the Avon and was once part of a vast royal forest and a favourite ground of Tudor kings. It is gaining in popularity due to its ideal location on the A350, a main gateway to the magnificent Wiltshire countryside. Several bus routes serve Melksham, including the National Express from London, and Melksham trains connect to Bristol, London and Swindon. The property itself is accessed down a private pedestrian path and through the large front garden down the garden path to the front porch. This is the ideal space for coats and shoes as well as greeting guests to your home. From here you enter the sitting room which has a bay window to the front, a door to the inner hall as well as a door and hatch to the kitchen. The kitchen is to the rear of the property and has ample space for base and wall units but requires updating and modernisation. It leads to the large conservatory which acts as a second reception room and has doors to the garden. The main bedroom is to the front of the property and also has a bay window and is a large double bedroom. The second bedroom is to the rear of the property and it is a good sized single. Also to the rear of the property there is the family bathroom. Externally there is a lawned front garden and to the rear there is a good sized, if a little over grown, garden with pedestrian rear access. This property is a real gem in the rough and with the right loving care and attention would make an amazing home.

Comments
This property is offered for sale via Online Auction which is a flexible and buyer friendly method of purchase. The purchaser will not be exchanging contracts on the fall of the virtual hammer, but will be given 56 working days in which to exchange and complete the transaction from the date the Draft Contract is issued by the sellers solicitor.
By giving a buyer time to exchange contracts on the property, normal residential finance can be arranged. The Buyer’s Premium secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Fees paid to the Auctioneer reserve the property to the buyer during the Reservation Period and are paid in addition to the purchase price and are considered within calculations for Stamp Duty Land Tax. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
The buyer will be required to give the Auctioneer authority to sign the Reservation Form on their behalf and to confirm acceptance of the Terms and Conditions prior to solicitors being instructed. Copies of the Reservation Form and all Terms and Conditions can be found in the Information Pack which can be downloaded from our website or requested from our Auctioneer.
Upon close of a successful auction, or if the vendor accepts an offer during the auction, the buyer will be required to make payment of a non-refundable Buyer's Premium of £6,582 including VAT, plus a buyer's administration charge of £372 including VAT, a total of £6,954. This secures the transaction and takes the property off the market. Any additional fees and charges over and above this will be confirmed within the terms and conditions available on the website.
The Buyer's Premium and buyer's administration charge are in addition to the final negotiated selling price.
All buyers will be required to verify their identity and provide proof of how the purchase will be funded.
Buyer's Administration Charge
If the Buyer Information Pack has been produced and provided by GOTO Group any successful purchaser will be required to pay £372 (including VAT) towards the cost of the preparation of the pack. These can then be used by your solicitor to progress the sale.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)
An EPC is broadly like the labels provided with domestic appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. Its purpose is to record how energy efficient a property is as a building. The certificate will provide a rating of the energy efficiency and carbon emissions of a building from A to G, where A is very efficient, and G is inefficient. The data required to allow the calculation of an EPC includes the age and construction of the building, its insulation and heating method. EPCs are produced using standard methods with standard assumptions about energy usage so that the energy efficiency of one building can easily be compared with another building of the same type. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires that all buildings have an EPC when they are marketed for sale or for let, or when houses are newly built. EPCs are valid for 10 years, or until a newer EPC is prepared. During this period the EPC may be made available to buyers or new tenants.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
