Burbage, Marlborough, SN8

Well Cottage can be accessed either via a driveway leading to ample parking at the rear of the property or via steps from the High Street into the front garden with pathway leading to the front door.

The separate annexe and garden office provide versatile spaces that can be used as a home office, guest accommodation, or rental opportunity, making it an attractive option for those seeking adaptability in their living arrangements.

Entering the cottage via the front door you are met with a spacious sitting room with feature beams and a gas fired stove set within a traditional inglenook brick fireplace. Off the sitting room to the right is a quaint country kitchen overlooking the garden, leading on from this is an internal lobby/larder with ample storage cupboards and beyond a stylish, modern shower room. Head back through to the sitting room and stairs lead up to the first floor. Off the landing is the main bedroom and dressing room and a second bedroom, both of a good size, and well presented. Back downstairs and leading off the sitting room to the rear is a good-sized hallway with delightful, recessed windows, leading out to the garden. Both floors have an abundance of original beams adding character to the well-designed decor.

Outside

To the front is good sized garden laid to lawn, surrounded by mature hedging with a picturesque well. The rear and side gardens create a sense of peace and privacy. There is a useful outbuilding that serves as a utility with power and water. The well-designed rear garden is enclosed by wood panelled fencing and zoned with paving and gravel. It includes seating areas, a pond, fruit trees and raised flower beds with steps beside, that lead to a modern, well appointed office/garden room. From the garden you access the driveway which leads to a large carport set within a lawned area with further parking, 2 useful workshops behind and to the detached one-bedroom annexe known as the Old Telephone Exchange.

The Annexe consists of a modern kitchen/sitting room, with oil fired underfloor heating, bathroom and double bedroom with doors out to a small private patio. Beside the annexe, there is parking for one car.

The owner has commissioned extension drawings with outline planning advice received to add additional living space, a small extension to the annex and a new garage design which are available to view.
