THE attractive former Grade II listed police station at Williton is being transformed into two ‘unique’ homes.

Designed in 1858 by architect John Norton, the original building included living accommodation for two police officers plus cells and a courtyard. In later years it incorporated a library.

Now ,the building is being sympathetically restored by highly skilled local craftsmen to provide two stylish properties.

The first, Number Four, The Old Library, is now ready for immediate occupation and is on the market with leading property professionals, Greenslade Taylor Hunt, at a guide price of offers in excess of £450,000.

A spokesperson for the estate agents said: “The build embraces the best of modern living, while retaining its historic character – leaded feature windows are dotted throughout the property and practical flagstone flooring is fitted in the downstairs accommodation.

“Outside there is a private driveway for two cars and an electric car charging point. To the front of the property there is a paved area with attractive flower beds, which would be a lovely spot to enjoy the sunshine. To the rear the garden is enclosed and lawned and there is also a patio area.”

For those looking to work from home the spacious three-bedroom home has a useful stone outbuilding/studio with light and power. This could provide a desirable home office or generous storage space.
