Built in 1796 – just before the period of the Napoleonic Wars - Tory House is a beautifully presented 2/3 bedroom Grade II* merchant wool workers house that displays great character and charm. The property has recently been sensitively restored and updated to introduce modern comforts including a smart fitted kitchen and an additional shower room along with modern central heating. New hand blown glass sash windows have been installed and the property has been extensively re-wired. The garden has been landscaped to provide both a wonderful sitting area and a productive vegetable and herb garden. There are far reaching views over the historic town of Bradford on Avon and the Wiltshire countryside beyond.

The front door opens into the delightful sitting room with an original stone fireplace with wood burning stove. The pretty sash windows have working shutters and there are wonderful views over the garden and to Bradford on Avon and beyond. There is a delightful fitted kitchen/dining room with a stone floor with under floor heating. The dining area has views to the front through sash windows with shutters. The kitchen includes a range of wall and base units with stone work surfaces and a Belfast sink. There is a pantry cupboard and fitted appliances include a washing machine and a dishwasher.

On the first floor is a charming panelled guest bedroom with uninterrupted views through two sash windows towards Bradford on Avon. There is a feature fireplace with surround and built in storage. Adjacent is the wonderful bathroom with an enamelled cast iron claw foot bath and period fireplace. The upper floor has a door leading to the back of the house and rear access. The study/bedroom 3 is at the top of the stairs with a period fireplace and surround, and further picturesque views over the town and beyond. The main bedroom is adjacent and again enjoys the wonderful aspect. The bedroom door is original door and there is a pretty fireplace. There is a small but smart en suite shower room off the bedroom and storage includes built in and recessed cupboards: the boiler is hidden behind a camouflaged door. There is a generous loft accessed off the landing, which houses the water tank with a new, effective pressurised system.
