Duck Street, Sutton Veny, Warminster, Wiltshire

Dating back to the 1800's, The Long House is a substantial, unlisted residence, extending to over 2,600 sq ft, with stylishly presented, wellproportioned accommodation arranged over two floors. Defined by its white-painted stone elevations and traditional clay tile roof, the property retains numerous period features and offers a balanced combination of character and modern conveniences, well suited to both family life and entertaining.

Our clients have improved and taken great care of the property during their time in occupation and the result is a charming, welcoming home with an enviable garden.

A spacious entrance hall, laid with flagstone flooring and centred around an inglenook fireplace, sets the tone for the accommodation. The principal reception rooms include a well-proportioned sitting room with a fireplace and double French doors opening to the garden, together with a separate dining room featuring a large fireplace.

To the rear, the house opens into an impressive kitchen and family space, designed with modern living in mind. The bespoke Plain English kitchen is fitted with shaker-style cabinetry, a central island with wine storage and integrated appliances. This area flows naturally into a dining space and adjoining sitting area, the latter benefiting from a wood-burning stove. From here, bi-fold doors open onto the rear garden. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the first floor provides six bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, with vaulted ceilings and a contemporary en suite shower room. A further bedroom also benefits from an en suite, while the remaining bedrooms, many with exposed timbers, are served by a modern family bathroom.
