Bishopstrow, Warminster £450,000

THE PROPERTY

is an unexpectedly spacious extended end-of-terrace Victorian cottage which has pretty stone elevations with brick quoins under a slate roof and benefits from LPG Gas-fired central heating to radiators. In recent times the cottage has been sympathetically remodelled, at the same time preserving original features including exposed timberwork and a particularly fine inglenook fireplace complete with woodburner whilst the well-appointed living accommodation is complemented by a long well-stocked cottage-style Rear Garden. On the market for the first time in over 20 years this would prove a great choice for someone wishing to enjoy village living hence the Agents strongly recommend an early accompanied internal inspection in order to avoid disappointment.

LOCATION

occupying a pleasant setting in the heart of Bishopstrow, a small, friendly and welcoming village which was mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Closeby is the River Wylye and the Grade II listed Boreham Mill, a former water-powered Corn mill, the site of a mill since the 13th century whilst the nearby St Aldhem’s Church is believed to have originated from the Saxon period. Bishopstrow has a village hall and playing field and is designated a Conservation Area and is surrounded by beautiful unspoilt Wiltshire countryside - great for keen ramblers and cyclists alike. Warminster is a little over a mile and has a bustling town centre which provides excellent shopping facilities - 3 supermarkets including a Waitrose store and a host of independent shops and eateries whilst other amenities include a theatre, library, hospital and clinics and a railway station. Rail users enjoy regular services to Salisbury and then direct to London Waterloo, and to Bath with a direct line on to South Wales. Other main centres in the area including Westbury, Frome, Trowbridge, Bath and Salisbury are all within a comfortable driving distance as are the various Salisbury Plain military bases. The A36, A350 and A303 trunk routes provide swift road communications throughout the West Country and further afield to London via the A303/M3 whilst Bristol, Bournemouth and Southampton airports are each just over an hour by road.
