Warminster, Wiltshire, BA12

This Grade II* listed Georgian house has an intriguing history and a sprawling layout forming a wonderful family home. The reception rooms are thought to be some of the finest in the area, both for their historical significance and the wonderful proportions, natural light and views they enjoy. They are spread across two levels and allow options for both formal and informal living and entertaining. The home balances grandeur with comfortable everyday living convenience. In all the accommodation comprises five bedrooms, four reception rooms and three bathrooms. At present, the accommodation also includes a one bedroom self-contained annexe and a capacious cellar. This exceptional property presents an extremely rare opportunity to purchase a truly historic, blue plaque home, which requires updating throughout, and is therefore a blank canvas upon which a dream home can be created.

Outside

The property is located in the heart of the town centre, set behind imposing wrought iron railings. To the front the formal decorative garden is laid to lawn with structured herbaceous borders and mature trees perfectly framing the home's beautiful symmetrical frontage. To the rear, there is a private driveway with parking for several vehicles, further enhanced by a detached garage, a true rarity for a town centre home. The garden to the rear is a glorious oasis nestled within the heart of the town. Adjoining the home there is a paved terrace, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Beyond, the garden is laid to lawn with contoured and abundant floral beds and borders and interspersed with specimen trees. The home enjoys a sunny westerly aspect and a great degree of privacy behind walled boundaries.

Situation

The market town of Warminster has a good range of shopping and day-to-day facilities. Bath and Salisbury are both within easy driving distance, offering a much wider selection of social and recreational amenities also with excellent shopping centres. This area has become particularly sought-after because of the exceptional number of good schools, both state and private, at all levels including Warminster School, Marlborough College, St Mary's Calne, Port Regis and Dauntseys as well as the schools in Salisbury and Bath. Communications are excellent with the A303/M3 providing good access to London and the west country. Mainline rail services run from Warminster and Salisbury to London Waterloo with more regular services from Westbury to London Paddington.
