A Handsome Grade II Listed Period House In About 2.71 Acres

The Old Rectory is an impressive country house, extending to over 4,500 sq ft of characterful accommodation, set within a peaceful and idyllic location approximately four miles south of Warminster. Dating from the 17th century and substantially rebuilt in the mid-19th century, the property displays handsome stone elevations, while the interior retains a wealth of period features, including sash windows, original fireplaces and fine detailing throughout.

The ground floor is centred around a welcoming entrance hall with mosaic tiled flooring, leading to four principal reception rooms. These comprise a comfortable sitting room with fireplace and bay window overlooking the front gardens, a formal dining room, a study ideal for home working, and a playroom. The playroom opens via double doors to a bright conservatory with panoramic glazing and French doors to the gardens. The kitchen, designed and made by David Craigie, is well-appointed with modern units and integrated appliances, complemented by a boot room and utility room. In addition, there is an attached self-contained annexe, which was the original ’school room’, providing a kitchen, a generous studio-style bedroom and sitting area with arched leaded windows and vaulted ceiling, and a shower room. This space has also been used for parties and it could also be a studio space.

On the first floor, the main house offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms retain washbasins, and there is also a family bathroom. On the second floor are two rooms that could be turned into two bedrooms or a bedroom and a bathroom.
