Lansdown Cottage is a beautiful and historic detached home enviably positioned on sought-after Wood Street, right in the heart of Royal Wootton Bassett—just a short stroll from the bustling High Street and its excellent array of amenities. Believed to be one of the town’s oldest residential properties, this unique home exudes charm and character throughout its spacious and versatile layout, offering three reception rooms, six bedrooms, and three bathrooms.

Entry is via a covered porch into a welcoming hallway with latch doors leading through to the generous, light-filled sitting room. Here, a gas-fired coal-effect stove and a pretty window seat add to the cosy yet elegant feel, enhanced further by a south-facing picture window. The triple-aspect dining room is equally inviting and would make a superb study or additional reception room.

The breakfast room is brimming with character, featuring a red brick corner fireplace with a log-burning stove and tiled flooring. From here, you’ll find access to a very useful cellar. The kitchen is smartly fitted with a range of units topped with solid beech block work surfaces, with a chimney recess housing the cooker. A rear lobby leads to a utility area and ground floor shower room, adding to the practical layout.

To the first floor are five generously proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully finished family bathroom. The loft conversion, added by the current owners in 2009 creates a striking master suite, complete with exposed beams and a stylish en-suite shower room with dual wash basins.

Set on a generous plot, the property enjoys a surprisingly spacious and enclosed front garden—walled for privacy—with the rare benefit of off-street parking for 2–3 vehicles. To the rear, a mature and thoughtfully arranged garden offers three defined areas, providing a mix of sunny retreats, peaceful corners, and practical space—ideal for families, gardeners, or those who love to entertain.
