House For Sale £240,000
The Fields, Mere, Warminster

A great opportunity to purchase a quirky and delightful end of terrace barn conversion with two double bedrooms, boasting a tranquil lane side position and within an easy walk to all of the town's facilities. The picture perfect village of Mere benefits from having a good community spirit with many facilities such as, a museum, library, doctor and dentist surgeries, post office and fire station. There are also a good selection of shops and three village pubs, one of which is just a short walk from the property and a 12th century church. We believe that the property was a former cattle barn, converted in the 1960s into a residential dwelling, which has been the loved and enjoyed home of our seller for the last six years. During this time it has been well cared for and offers comfortable accommodation, which is arranged over three floors with steps leading from the entry level to the bedrooms on the first floor and down to a large reception room and the kitchen. There is scope to create a home to one's own taste and design. This characterful home has plenty of old world charm with exposed timbers and painted stone walls, fireplace and cottage style windows with deep sills plus a wonderful window with a leaded light inlay. Catering for modern day expectations there is gas fired central heating from a combination boiler and double glazing. This lovely property would make a fabulous first time buy, lock up and leave UK base or as a bolt hole from a hectic working week as well as fulfilling many other requirements. A viewing is absolutely essential to truly appreciate what this home has to offer.
