This room is the heart of the home, where the family gathers to cook, eat, and spend quality time together. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a morning cup of coffee while watching the sunrise or to unwind in the evening with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the horizon.

We would say someone who values both functionality and aesthetics. Perhaps a young family looking to settle down in a welcoming community with plenty of room to grow. Or maybe retirees who appreciate the ease of single-level living and want to enjoy the serene views with the easy walk into town. Ultimately, the ideal owner would be someone who can appreciate the versatility and beauty that this home has to offer, making it their own and creating new memories within its walls.

This fluid layout not only fosters a sense of togetherness but also allows for seamless transition between different areas of the home.

In summary, what we love most about the house is its ability to cater to diverse lifestyles and preferences, thanks to its space, its views and all within reach of town.

Living in Marlborough, offers a multitude of delights. One of the things we love most is the town's rich history and picturesque charm. Wandering through the streets, you can't help but feel transported back in time with its beautiful Georgian buildings and quaint streets lined with independent shops and cafes.
The surrounding countryside is another highlight, with its rolling hills, lush greenery, and breathtaking views. It's a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, offering countless opportunities for hiking, cycling, and exploring the natural beauty of the area.

Overall, living in Marlborough combines the best of both worlds – the tranquillity of rural living with the convenience of a thriving market town. It's a place where history, natural beauty, and community come together to create a truly special place to call home.

How easy is it to commute from here?

Train travel is another option, although Marlborough itself doesn't have a train station nearby towns like Pewsey and Swindon have great services that we've often used to get into London for example in as little as one hour.
