The Green, Marlborough, Wiltshire, SN8

Description

Set in the heart of Marlborough, Harling House is a period town house enjoying a southwest facing position overlooking The Green and situated close to the High Street. The house benefits from two parking spaces, unusual for houses in this iconic location.

This attractive Grade II listed property is double fronted and of rendered elevations under a hipped slate roof with sash windows. The light and bright accommodation is arranged over three floors and the generous entrance hall / study sets the tone for this charming home.

Of particular note are the gloriously high ceilings which are a real feature of this property and give a wonderful feeling of space throughout. The sitting room has great character, central fireplace (untested) and splendid views over The Green.

The kitchen is situated on the lower ground floor and benefits from a good range of floor and wall mounted units. It opens up into a large dining room, beautifully proportioned and an excellent room for entertaining.

There are two double bedrooms on the first floor, the principal of which is exceptional. Both bedrooms are served by the well-appointed shower room.

Outside

A shared driveway to the side of the house leads to an area at the rear, which provides parking for two cars. There is a large, raised bed which is big enough to put out a table and chairs, should there be the want/need for an outdoor seating area.
