About this property

Set in the heart of historic Calne with garaging stands this period, listed house offering a wealth of features and arranged over three storeys.

Set in the delightful Heritage Quarter of Calne you will find The Old Gatehouse; a pretty, secluded property with a wealth of charm. Enter through the covered front door into a compact hallway, with space enough to store coats and boots, and proceed into the generous living space. The large reception room is light and characterful, and can be easily zoned to create both dining and living space. A sizeable wood burning stove sits centrally within the inglenook fireplace, bringing warmth and atmosphere to the room and original beams add character. To the right of the reception room you will find the galley kitchen. Accessible from both sides, crisp and clean with white units, this is an ideal space to spend time cooking and experimenting. Beyond the kitchen is a generous utility room and downstairs WC. Completing the ground floor is the garden room, adjacent to the kitchen and flooded with natural light and access to the well-tended garden, this is the perfect spot to indulge in a cup of coffee or something stronger! A cellar can be accessed via a door to the back of the stairs, and this is ripe for renovation. Head up the stairs to the first floor and you will find two bedrooms, both of which could easily house double beds. Character abounds in both, with original beams highlighted by the pale paintwork; the larger of the two capitalises on an ingress that once held a window, which now holds a bookcase a lovely way to display those precious items. A generous family bathroom completes this floor, with waterfall shower and substantial bath. Ascend the further staircase to the second floor and step into the spectacular master bedroom, nestled in the eaves and complimented by the en-suite shower room, this is a truly special space.
