Park Lane, Heytesbury, Warminster £850,000

THE PROPERTY

is a spacious detached cottage which has been considerably extended creating a highly individual home, with attractive stone, brick and rendered elevations under a tiled roof and benefits from Oil-fired central heating to radiators whilst most windows are double glazed, many recently installed. More than doubled in size by the current owner, the cottage successfully blends old and new, enhanced by the extensive use of French Oak flooring in most Ground Floor rooms and bespoke solid Oak internal doors throughout, whilst the Kitchen features an Aga. Ideally suited for someone needing a home with plenty of space to spread out this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period cottage home with a large Garden in a delightful edge of village setting adjoining farmland, hence the Agents strongly recommend an early accompanied internal inspection in order to avoid disappointment.
