Plot 80 - First floor
Well proportioned 2 bedroom apartments with contemporary open plan living. The bedrooms are both doubles with bedroom 1 including built in wardrobes.
Heron Rise is a fantastic new development of 87 homes and enjoys an elevated position on the western side of the historic Wiltshire town of Westbury looking across to the famous White Horse.
Westbury is a bustling market town located below a vast chalk escarpment on the western edge of Salisbury Plain. There is a rich local heritage, dominated by the iconic White Horse carved into the hillside just a couple of miles to the east. The town also enjoys a range of modern shops and amenities around the busy High Street and beyond.
Ancient Roots
Westbury retains a footprint of history from the Iron Age through to the Industrial Revolution with a strong background in cloth manufacturing, glove-making and iron ore production. In 878AD, legend has it that King Alfred defeated the Danes at nearby Bratton Camp at the Battle of Ethandun and sowed the seeds of what we know today as England. When King Gunthrum surrendered, victorious Alfred came down the hill and passed through the town where the street still bears his name. Some 900 years later the locals carved a huge white horse on the soft chalkland to commemorate the victory - the oldest and largest of the eight white chalk horses in the county.
Historic Wiltshire
This area is brimming with history. Wiltshire is home to the Stonehenge and Avebury stone circles and these outstanding prehistoric monuments have World Heritage Site status. There are many stately homes in the county, including Longleat, Stourhead House and Gardens and
Bowood House. The quintessential Wiltshire village of Lacock, owned by the National Trust, looks much like it did 200 years ago. The nearby city of Bath has been a wellbeing destination since Roman times.
Local Facilities
In Westbury itself you can find a host of shops and amenities including several large supermarkets, a number of newsagents and convenience stores as well as the usual coffee shops and cafes together with a Boots pharmacy, but additional options can also be found in the nearby towns of Frome, Trowbridge and Warminster just a short drive away. There are a number of good education options in Westbury including six primary schools within two miles of Heron
Rise. Secondary provision is catered for within the town and also in nearby Trowbridge and Warminster. There is easy access to nearby private schools. The centre of town is also home to one of the longest serving swimming pools in the country. Built by Westbury Mill owner WH Laverton to mark Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, Westbury Swimming Baths were opened in 1888 and retain a unique charm, thanks to the traditional Victorian architecture.
