Homeminster House, Station Road, Warminster £65,500

THE PROPERTY

represents an extremely rare opportunity to acquire a Garden level retirement apartment located at Homeminster House, an attractive purpose-built town centre development with well-lit communal hallways whilst all floors are served by a lift and stairways. All properties benefit from Electric Heating and Double Glazing, power points are at a comfortable waist height, whilst safety & security systems are linked to a House Manager responsible for overseeing the smooth day-to-day running of the building and an out-of-hours careline service provides peace of mind when the House Manager is off duty. A guest apartment is also available by arrangement for visiting friends and relatives. Although offering scope for some updating this is a very rare opportunity not to be missed to acquire a Garden level Ground Floor apartment with it’s own direct Garden access onto a small area of outside space hence the Agents strongly advise an early accompanied internal inspection in order to avoid disappointment.

LOCATION

Homeminster House enjoys a very handy location just off Station Road close to the railway station and moments on foot from the bustling town centre with its excellent shopping facilities - 3 supermarkets including nearby Waitrose and Lidl stores which are practically on the doorstep, together with a wide range of other amenities including a host of independent shops and eateries. Other facilities include a theatre & library, hospital & clinics and the town is well served by local buses. Rail users enjoy regular services to Salisbury and then direct to London Waterloo, and to Bath with a direct line onto South Wales. The other main centres in the area include Frome, Trowbridge, Westbury, Bath and Salisbury which are all within a comfortable driving distance whilst the A36, A350 and A303 trunk routes provide swift access throughout the West Country and further afield to London via the A303/M3. Bristol, Bournemouth and Southampton Airports are each just over an hour by car.
