A charming cottage, situated on a quiet country lane in the sought-after village of Norton Bavant offering outbuildings and scope to further improve and develop.
18 Norton Bavant is located along a peaceful country lane on the outskirts of the village and offers plenty of development potential. Constructed of stone under a slate roof the accommodation is laid out over two floors with three bedrooms and a bathroom situated on the first floor with the kitchen and sitting room located off the hallway on the ground floor. An outside toilet and store occupy a single storey lean-to positioned at the rear of the cottage. The property would benefit from a full schedule of updating and modernising to unlock the beauty of this enchanting property.
Situation
Norton Bavant is a small village situated in the idyllic Wylye Valley enjoying enchanting countryside views in every direction. The 14th c All Saints Church proudly sits in the grounds of Norton Bavant House and the village playing field is centrally positioned within the community. To the north, overlooking the village, is the Iron Age hillfort of Scratchbury and Cotley Hill. The village of Heytesbury with its village store and public house is conveniently located just 1 mile to the east, whilst the town of Warminster is 2 miles to the west and provides all every day amenities including Waitrose and Morrison supermarkets, and a bustling High Street with a range of well-known and artisan retailers. A more sophisticated retail experience can be had at Bath or Salisbury, both easily accessible by car (20 miles ) or by train from the mainline railway station in Warminster. The area is blessed with a choice of both state and private schools including Warminster School, Dauntseys, Salisbury Cathedral School, Chafyn Grove and Godolphin to name but a few. Leisure amenities include the library, sports centre, swimming pool, golf and rugby clubs and walks from the door. There is also excellent fishing on the River Avon, Test and outlying chalk streams Local attractions such as Longleat House and Safari Park, Shearwater Lake, Stourhead, Salisbury Plain and race courses at Salisbury, Wincanton and Larkhill are within easy reach. As well as the train line, road links are excellent with the A303 and onward connections to London and the West country accessible within 15 minutes by car.
Outside
The cottage occupies a sizeable corner plot and provides ample parking, a good size garden and intriguing outbuildings. A concrete drive leads from the lane past the side of the house and on to the former yard positioned at the rear and where you will find the former ‘cow’ barn. The barn, we feel, affords an exciting opportunity to create additional accommodation / studio or office space (subject to planning permission). A second detached, block built store provides additional storage. The garden is slightly elevated and is predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees and hedges.
Note
The client may favor an offer with the consideration of an ‘Uplift’ on the Cow Barn and side garden of either a percentage or fixed sum following any additional residential consent.
