Property Description
Why you'll like it
Martin & Co are delighted to present this exceptional two double bedroom period property, steeped in history and was the Longleat House's old bakery, dated back to 1610. Situated in the very heart of Warminster, this unique home is rich in character and charm, boasting features such as an inglenook fireplace and exposed original oak beams and stone details. Offered to the market with the added benefit of no onward chain.
The property comprises and benefits from uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, lounge, dining room, kitchen, pantry, utility area, downstairs bathroom, and two generously sized double bedrooms.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a small entrance hall which opens directly into the lounge. This inviting room is a wonderful focal point of the home, featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace, exposed original oak beam and stone details, and ample space for all lounge furnishings. Stairs rise to the first floor, while an opening leads to the dining room. This spacious dining area comfortably accommodates a large table, chairs and dining room furniture and flows through to the kitchen.
The kitchen is fitted with oak wall and base units, with a handy pull-out table for two, complemented by granite worktops. A sink is inset into the work surface, and the kitchen is equipped with a top-of-the-range 1.2m wide Range Master cooker and matching extractor hood, and an integrated Bosch dishwasher. There is also the added benefit of a large pantry and a traditional oak lantern light, an architectural feature to this light and spacious kitchen.
Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed four-piece bathroom suite comprising a 1.8m long bath, high-end 1.1m wide Matki Radiance curved corner shower, a wash hand basin and W/C. A spacious hallway from the kitchen connects the bathroom and the adjacent utility/back hall, which also provides direct access to the rear garden.
Ascending to the first floor, a landing provides extra storage space as well as access to two superb double bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from extensive built-in storage, and a feature fireplace, and a spacious boiler/airing cupboard while the second bedroom offers generous proportions and ample space for furnishings. The loft has a potential for another room.
Externally, the property benefits from a spacious patio with raised flower beds and a charming pond, leading to a summer house outbuilding with excellent potential for conversion to an artist's studio or garden retreat. The generous garden continues with a large lawn, spacious tool shed, productive vegetable plot with a chicken house, well-established fruit trees, shrubs, and herb beds, as well as a greenhouse (in need of replacement glazing). A planted patio leads to a workshop and two garages, with two off-street parking spaces accessed via a quiet lane. A side pathway adjacent to the cottage also provides convenient gated access to the front of the property.
Set within approximately 0.2 acres, the property offers a wonderful private garden for family living while also presenting an attractive opportunity for investors or developers. The sizeable south-facing garden provides strong potential for further development (subject to the necessary consents), with several neighbouring plots recently developed with new detached homes, indicating favourable planning prospects.
Offered with no onward chain, this remarkable period home must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.
Property location
Warminster is well positioned between the historic Roman spa city of Bath and the cathedral city of Salisbury, offering excellent transport connections. The town sits on the main railway line with direct services to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads, and also provides convenient links to the South Coast.

Warminster is a welcoming market town known for its attractive historic buildings, independent shops, cafés and the Athenaeum Theatre. Residents also enjoy the beautiful town park, home to the Pavilion Café and a picturesque boating lake rich in wildlife. The property is ideally located close to Longleat Forest and within easy reach of the cultural and historic attractions of Bath and Salisbury, while numerous outstanding countryside and heritage sites can be found within around 100 miles, making this an excellent base for exploring the wider region.
