Forge Lane, Marlborough, SN8

A spacious, welcoming family home with great flow, generous rooms and a superb garden Phoenix House is a bright, extended family home set in the heart of West Overton, offering generous space, a relaxed layout and a setting that suits modern family life.

The large dual aspect living room is the natural starting point. With a wood burning stove and views to both the front and rear, it’s a warm, comfortable room that works just as well for quiet evenings as it does for family gatherings. A downstairs WC sits conveniently off the hallway. The modern kitchen is designed for real day to day use, with a breakfast bar, larder and plenty of workspace. It opens directly into the dining room, which has space for a family seating area, making it ideal for relaxed meals, homework time or weekend coffee. A separate utility room keeps laundry and storage neatly out of sight and adds to the smooth flow of the ground floor. A further room on the ground floor works well as a study, hobby room or even a fifth bedroom if needed. It’s tucked away enough to stay quiet without dominating the layout.

The bedrooms upstairs are all well proportioned. The main bedroom is a standout feature, offering its own en suite shower room and a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, giving the room a peaceful, airy feel. A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

The large, mature rear garden is one of the property’s strongest features. With established planting, a generous lawn and a good sense of privacy, it’s ideal for children, pets and outdoor entertaining. There is also a large patio for dining and relaxing, plus a shed/workshop providing useful storage or hobby space.

Directly opposite the house is a playground, and just a couple of minutes’ walk away is a small football pitch, giving families even more outdoor space right on the doorstep.

West Overton is a picturesque and highly sought after village within the Avebury World Heritage Site.  The Ridgeway National Trail is also easily accessible, offering miles of walking, running and cycling routes across some of the region’s most beautiful landscapes. The nearby market town of Marlborough offers a wide range of shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and leisure facilities, along with its well known High Street and regular markets. For commuters, Pewsey and Swindon stations provide fast links to London and Bristol, with journey times of around an hour.

Schooling in the area is excellent.

Kennet Valley Primary School is rated Good by Ofsted, and a free bus service runs from the green space behind the property. The free bus to St John’s (secondary) runs from the end of Forge Lane. Several respected independent schools are also within easy reach.

Phoenix House offers generous space, modern comforts and a superb village setting, combining countryside calm with great connections. It is an ideal family home in one of Wiltshire’s most attractive locations.
