Pound Street, Warminster Offers in the Region Of £495,000

THE PROPERTY

is a spacious detached early-Victorian cottage which has colourwashed Wisteria-clad stone and rendered elevations under a tiled roof and benefits from Gas-fired central heating to radiators together with cottage-style Upvc sealed-unit double glazing installed in 2022. Wits’ End is on the market for the first time in over 30 years during which time the owners have carried a scheme of sympathetic restoration including a large extension however they have reluctantly decided now is the time to downsize. The cottage has the added bonus of a delightful easily-managed cottage-style organic Rear Garden. This would be a great choice for a family seeking a quirky period home, hence the Agents strongly advise an early accompanied internal inspection in order to avoid disappointment.

LOCATION

Wits’ End occupies a pleasant elevated setting above road level, fronted by a grassy bank and is approached via a short flight of steps from Pound Street on the Western fringes of Warminster, not far from the extensive woodlands of the Longleat Estate making this an ideal spot for keen ramblers, dog walkers and cyclists alike. Within moments on foot is a small parade of neighbourhood shops including a Tesco Express, providing everyday needs whilst the bustling town centre is just under a mile offering excellent shopping - 3 supermarkets including a Waitrose store and a host of independent shops, cafes and eateries. Other amenities include a theatre and library, clinics and hospital, a beautiful town centre park and a railway station. Rail users enjoy regular services to Salisbury, and direct onto London Waterloo, and to Bath with a direct line onto South Wales. The town is served by regular buses and a good local roads network whilst the other main centres in the area including Westbury, Trowbridge, Frome, Salisbury and Bath are all within a comfortable driving distance as are the various Salisbury Plain military bases. The A36, A350 and A303 trunk roads provide swift road access 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.
