Property Description
Why you'll like it
Steeped in history and full of original charm, this remarkable Grade II Listed property, originally thatched and dating back to the 1700s and stands as one of the few buildings in the village to have survived the Great Fire of Heytesbury in 1765. Once the Mayor's residence and later the village butcher's shop, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of local heritage.
Set over three floors with the additional benefit of a cellar, the home offers three charming reception rooms and five generously sized double bedrooms. Period features include exposed original beams and feature open fireplaces throughout, while modern touches such as underfloor heating in the bathroom and en-suite provide everyday comfort.
Step into the generous drawing room that measures over 21ft in length, offering ample space for all lounge furnishings. It boasts a beautiful feature fireplace and dual windows that flood the room with natural light, creating a warm and inviting space.
The dining room is another inviting and spacious area, perfect for family gatherings. It features an original fireplace complete with a historic bread oven hatch, adding a unique character detail. From this room, there is also access to the property's cellar, offering practical additional storage.
A third reception room, currently used as a cosy sitting or reading room, serves as a highly versatile space. It could easily function as a home office, snug, playroom, or library, depending on your lifestyle needs.
Located at the rear of the property, the kitchen/dining room features a range of fitted wall and base cabinets, an integrated oven and hob, and space for further appliances. There's ample room for a dining table and chairs for casual dining. This space benefits from direct access to the rear garden and approved planning permission to extend, providing the opportunity to create a larger family room.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged across the upper floors, with the two top-floor rooms benefiting from useful eaves storage. The impressive master bedroom features a beautiful character fireplace, a spacious walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious en-suite complete with a freestanding roll-top bath, wash hand basin, W/C, and the added comfort of underfloor heating. Bedroom two includes a fitted wardrobe and has plumbing already in place for a potential en-suite, offering excellent scope for future enhancement. The remaining bedrooms are served by two separate bathroom suites, one located on the first floor with underfloor heating, and another on the second floor providing added convenience for family living or guests.
Outside, the enclosed garden offers a tranquil escape, featuring a central lawn and a charming feature pond. A variety of mature trees, shrubs, and plants enhance the garden's appeal and create a picturesque setting. Several seating and entertaining areas provide perfect spaces for family gatherings or unwinding in the summer sunshine. To the rear, an outbuilding-partially constructed as 'Keepers Cottage' comes with approved planning permission for a one-bedroom annex, ideal for multigenerational living and adding further flexibility and value to the home. Gated driveway parking is located to the side of the property, offering both convenience and added privacy.
