Property description

A characterful, terraced cottage with brick and flint elevations and a clay tiled roof, 11 West Street is located within a private mews style alley with easy access to Wilton centre amenities. For a small cottage the accommodation is surprisingly spacious, the living room is accessed directly from the courtyard with a fireplace and a concealed staircase leading to the first floor. Overall the property is in need of some improvement although it is perfectly habitable in its current condition. There is scope to open up the ground floor to create an open plan living and kitchen space, re-position the staircase which would then allow for the reconfiguration of the first floor into two bedrooms and a bathroom. There is electric heating in the sitting and bedroom and a gas fired boiler in the kitchen providing domestic hot water. To the front is an open gravelled area, there is also a further piece of lawned and partly walled garden. In addition there is a useful brick built garden store/outbuilding of which number 11 owns a small part.

There are churches for a number of denominations, pubs, a primary school, two doctors surgeries, an optician and dental practises within the town.
