A former Loom House dating from the early 19th Century more recently Imaginatively converted into a Delightful Home in the High Street of this Pretty Wiltshire Village.
The Property
Is a former Loom House believed to have been built by John Taunton in 1828 on the site of an old house and research indicates it was originally three-storey and had floors that could hold the weight of 2 broadlooms however the photo below shows it later when it served as Les Cooke’s engineering works. In 1984 the property was imaginatively converted to create a charming easily run home with brick and stone elevations under a slate roof featuring bespoke cottage-style double glazed windows whilst the accommodation benefits Electric heating. Cottages of this type are ideal for someone seeking a quirky home in a highly regarded village, hence the Agents recommend an early accompanied internal inspection to avoid disappointment.
Location
Chapmanslade is a friendly and welcoming village surrounded by undulating farmland on the Wiltshire/Somerset borders. History indicates the village itself has existed as least since the 11th century and has no less than 22 listed buildings, many of which were associated with clothiers and the wool industry. Two such being The Old Loom House and Dye House - the latter was mentioned in the Doomsday Book. There are plenty of clubs and activities if you are new to the area together with a village pub The Three Horseshoes, a nearby Primary School and Pre-School - rated Good by Ofsted, and the Victorian Church of St Philip & St James, whilst the surrounding countryside has much to offer keen ramblers and cyclists alike. The bustling town of Warminster has 3 supermarkets including a Waitrose store and a wide range of other amenities which include a theatre and library, hospital and clinics and a railway station with regular rail services to Salisbury, and then direct to London Waterloo, and to Bath with a direct line on to South Wales. Frome is also handy with equally good facilities whilst Westbury, Trowbridge, Bath and Salisbury are all within a comfortable driving distance as are the various Salisbury Plain military bases. The A36, A350 and A303 trunk routes provide swift road communications throughout the West Country and further afield to London via the A303/M3. Bristol, Bournemouth and Southampton airports are each just over an hour by road.
