4 Bedroom | Freehold | 2 Baths

A magnificent fully renovated period home located moments from Marlborough High Street.

Description

Located a short walk (0.4 miles) from Marlborough's historic High Street, The Croft is a stylish and impressive four bedroom family house which has been meticulously renovated to the highest of standards. There is a modern and elegant feel throughout and the attention to detail of the works undertaken is clear to be seen.

The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the house, off which you access the main sitting room and additional family room / snug. The sitting room, with original wooden floorboards, bespoke joinery and wood burning stove, flows seamlessly to a sunny raised decking area which enjoys a southerly aspect overlooking the garden.

The heart of the home is without doubt the stunning and expansive kitchen / dining room which has been comprehensively fitted with a sleek range of high specification units and appliances. There is ample space for family dining and the perfect place for entertaining. The ground floor further offers a large utility room / boot room with ample storage and a cloakroom off the main hallway.

The first-floor accommodation is accessed via two separate staircases, the first of which is off the main entrance hall and ascends to a spacious landing. The generous principal bedroom benefits from built in wardrobes and far-reaching southerly views towards Savernake Forest. There is a further good-sized double bedroom and a single bedroom in this part of the house, all of which are served by the immaculately appointed and luxurious family bathroom, with free standing bath and separate shower.

The second staircase leads up from the kitchen/dining room where there is another beautiful bathroom and double bedroom. There is a further staircase taking you to the galleried mezzanine floor which is currently used as a study / Pilates studio but could also make ideal overflow bedroom space or kids playroom.

Outside

The house is accessed off this quiet lane where there is driveway parking for three cars. To the north of the parking area is an extra area of garden, with raised vegetable beds and a wooden shed. This area, subject to obtaining the necessary consents, offers the perfect place to erect a carport / garage.

On the south side of the house and accessed off the sitting room is a large, decked terrace from which there are steps down to the garden. The garden enjoys great privacy and is enclosed by mature hedging on all sides. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with a good selection of trees and shrubs, flower borders and a pond.
