Top tips for a Warminster Home Buyers Survey
Warminster's population was around 5,000 at the beginning of the 19th century and there are still a number of properties standing which date back to the Georgian period, such as the Georgian town houses you can see in Boreham Road. There are many Victorian properties, although the expected population increase which normally accompanies the arrival of the railway in the mid-19th century did not happen to Warminster because the train provided people with access to other nearby towns which killed off Warminster's successful market.
Nonetheless you can see excellent Victorian terraced housing in many places, such as in Yard Court and Victorian cottages in Pound Street and Woodcock Road. In the 20th century, the population stayed roughly level, at a little over 5,000 people, until the 1950s and 1960s when it started to rise again. The local authority built some council housing during this century, such as the Queensbury Council Estate. There are any number of standard construction semi-detached houses which were built from the 1930s onwards.
In terms of new build developments, a little over 200 houses of various types were recently built at Tascroft Rise, between Victoria Road and the A36. Help to Buy has been made available for some of these houses.

Warminster has the Were (Swan River) running through it and some properties built in close proximity to this water course in some areas may be subject to flood alerts from time to time, for example in streets such as Wylye Road and Ebble Crescent. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is built in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). | According to the UK Government's Public Health England, most of Warminster, including streets such as Emwell Street and Cuckoos Nest Lane, are in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. The raised Radon area has a maximum radon potential of 1 -3% (the percentage is the chance of a property being built where Radon emissions might measure above the action level). If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map.

Home Buyers Survey - What does it cover?
A Home Buyers Survey is completed by a qualified RICS surveyor and delivers a visual inspection of the property in Warminster and the surrounding garden. The aim of the survey, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report, is to identify potential risks or defects that you may not know are there such as cracks or damage to the structure of the property, subsidence, damp and infestations.
