The Fields, Mere, Warminster

An appealing cottage style modern detached family home, offering sizeable accommodation with four generously sized bedrooms and situated in a tucked away position in a quiet and popular residential area of the town and close to some delightful countryside walks. The property lies on the fringe of the small Wiltshire town of Mere, which has a bustling community and caters well for everyday needs with a museum, library, dental surgery and medical centre, post office, Co-op store and fire station. There are also an electrical shop and three village pubs. The property was built in 2002 and has been a much cherished and enjoyed home to our sellers for the last fourteen years. During this time it has been extremely well maintained and improved with the addition of a useful rear porch, the gas fired boiler was replaced about four years ago. In addition, the double oven is only two years old and the kitchen was updated in the early years to soft closing units and overlay granite work surfaces. The property was built under the 'Duchy' criteria with wood framed double glazing to keep within sustainability and to blend with the environment. This lovely home must be viewed to truly appreciate what it has to offer, both inside and out, as well as its location in the town. Further facilities are just a ten minute drive to Gillingham, where there is a selection of supermarkets, including a Waitrose and a mainline train station serving London Waterloo and the West Country.
