A Grade II listed thatched cottage offering character-packed living in Burbage, set on a large plot with separate one‑bed annexe and garden office. The main house retains exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with gas stove, a country kitchen, and a modern shower room. The annexe (the Old Telephone Exchange) is self-contained with underfloor oil heating — useful as guest accommodation, home‑office or rental income.
Outside, mature hedging, a picturesque well and zoned rear gardens provide privacy and productive planting (fruit trees, raised beds and a pond). Practical outbuildings include two workshops, an attached utility outbuilding with power and water, generous off‑street parking and a two‑bay carport. The site size and existing buildings give scope for extension subject to consents — outline pre‑planning discussions have taken place with Wiltshire County Council and extension drawings have been commissioned.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listed status restricts alterations and can complicate planning and refurbishment; the thatched roof and period fabric will require specialist, ongoing maintenance. Heating is mixed: main house gas stove and electric heating, annexe on oil underfloor heating — consider running costs and future service needs. Overall this is a rare, characterful home for buyers wanting flexible living and a large, private garden in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
