4 bedroom detached house for sale in Wingfield, Trowbridge, Wiltshire, BA14 , BA14
A lot of property for the money but just too big / needing too much work for me.
I'm after a home not an investment.
That said, I'm surprised it's still on the market.Last edited by Gumbo Robot; 12 January 2016, 16:01.Comment

Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostIt's misleading. It's got on the edge of BOA but in the Trowbag post code. It's on the BOA road in.
It's worth at least 650k. Done up it's a 1M property in that area with that land. Oh well, least it's one less hassleComment

Sounds really lovely
Choice of activity – going down to Mcdonalds car park, or parking in the middle of the one way system. They smoke fags, and love picking up girls in the age range of 10-14, who have lots of girlfriends who can also sit with them. They like to talk about other boy racers, and drive around town repeatedly. They play very loud music ear drum bursting stylie. They spend enormous amounts of money on usually very cheap cars, cuh as novas, saxo’s and fiestas. They like to beeb their horn to get attention and do wheel spins.
As you can gather, the small town of Trowbridge, near Bath, is not peaceful, picturesque and the centre of happiness. It is riddled with chavs from all disciplines, and is to be avoided at all costs.The Chunt of Chunts.Comment

Replace the back single story, go into the roof with a dormer, front extension two story, balcony to the front and again, bring forward oak beams, knock through open plan kitchen, re-landscape the gardens, new driveway, do up the office, replacement garage etc.
It's a blank canvas, slap bang in the middle of a large plot, hardly any neighbours. you could do a complete grand designs job, or be like AtW and sleep on a sofa in the shed.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

So even in recession, I doubt prices in London/SE would fluctuate much - maybe 2-3%Comment
