Bath Road, Marlborough, SN8

Fine & Country are delighted to have agreed the sale of this stunningly styled 5 bedroom home within easy reach of Marlborough’s High Street.

Overview:

Constructed in 2020, Beechwood is a superb luxury home within easy reach of the many amenities Marlborough has to offer. Featuring far-reaching rural views, this exquisitely styled house combines the best in traditional styles with all the benefits of a more modern building. The whole property is immaculately presented, perhaps the best example of a ‘turnkey’ house to be found in the area.

Marlborough is a thriving market town which lies in the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and is frequently recognised as one of the most desirable places to live in the UK. Famed for its historic and wide high street, Marlborough is packed full of boutique shops and independent businesses alongside larger retailers such as Waitrose. The area is well connected with easy access to the M4 and direct rail services to London Paddington (taking approximately 1 hour) from Bedwyn, Pewsey and Hungerford.

Accommodation Summary:

Ground Floor:
From the moment you step over the threshold, it’s clear Beechwood offers a great combination of high quality craftmanship with excellent proportions, emphasizing space and light. There is a wonderful flow to the ground floor, with the sitting room, dining room and large kitchen and breakfast room all able to be joined or separated off as required giving great flexibility. A generous office offers an ideal space to work from home, but could also function well as a playroom for those with young children. The kitchen and breakfast room features a large island unit and when combined with the delightful dining area with lantern roof above, it is the perfect space for entertaining guests.

First Floor:
The principal bedroom suite is spacious and includes a large walk-in wardrobe and generous en-suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms at this level are very well appointed with ensuites too. Notable are the views from the front bedrooms and landing towards the fields in front of Beechwood.

Second Floor:
A skylight floods the staircase with natural light and two further well-proportioned bedrooms can be found on the second floor, in addition to a bathroom.

Outside:
An electric gate opens onto the driveway which has space for several vehicles and a well-constructed double garage with timber doors. At the front of the house is a large terrace, providing the ideal space to enjoy the south-facing aspect. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with several mature trees at the rear.

Location:
For those looking for a convenient location with a rural outlook, Beechwood offers the ideal balance and many amenities within a short walk. It is difficult to think of many things that Marlborough High Street lacks. Along with being the second widest high street in the UK, it is host to a fantastic range of shops, cafes, restaurants, and public houses, all within a very short walk of your front door. It is certainly the many independent and boutique businesses that help Marlborough retain its character and charm, and these sit side by side with larger national chains such as Waitrose. There is a twice weekly market selling everything from fruit and veg to hardware and garden furniture.

There is a variety of excellent schooling available at all levels in and around the town, with St. John’s Marlborough and the world-famous Marlborough College both within walking distance. The surrounding countryside also is a huge draw to the area, with country walks, bike rides and other outdoor pursuits all readily available. The Marlborough Downs, Savernake Forest, West Woods and many other beauty spots are within easy reach. For transport, the M4 is easily accessible as is the A34. The train stations at Pewsey, Great Bedwyn and Hungerford offer direct services into London Paddington with the fastest taking under 1hr.
