Farm Lane, Aldbourne, Marlborough, Wiltshire, SN8

DESCRIPTION

Located on the edge of the popular village of Aldbourne, Beechcroft House is a substantial four bedroom family house of rendered brick elevations under a tiled roof and relieved by double glazed windows.

There is a wealth of ground floor accommodation and is perfectly set up for modern day family life. Of particular note is the expansive kitchen / dining room which has been opened up to create a wonderful space, ideal for family meals or entertaining guests. This room really is the hub of the home and includes a seating area with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden beyond.

The sitting room has a lovely, cosy feel to it and is centred around the fireplace with wood burning stove. This in turn leads through to another reception room which is currently a playroom, but would make a wonderful study/office for those working from home. The ground floor accommodation is completed by the downstairs cloakroom and sizeable utility room, which is accessed off the kitchen.

The dual aspect principal bedroom, with ensuite shower room, is of generous proportions and spans the full depth of the house. There are two further double bedrooms which both overlook the garden and a single bedroom to the front. All are served by the well appointed family bathroom.

OUTSIDE

The property is sat in a plot of approximately a quarter of an acre and the garden. There is gravel driveway to the side of the house which offers parking for three cars and a path leading to the front door. The private south facing garden is a great size and is mainly laid to lawn, with an array of mature trees and shrubs. Additionally, there is a paved patio area accessed off the kitchen which is the ideal spot for alfresco dining in the sunnier months. There is a brick built storage area and two further wooden sheds at the bottom of the garden, offering very handy extra storage.
