Semi-detached house for sale in Sunnyside Lockeridge, Marlborough SN8

Much thought and consideration has been given to the restoration of the cottage, bringing it back to its traditional Victorian roots with exposed brick flooring, lime plaster walls and upgraded chimney with wood burning stove. Enter the cottage through the porch into the sitting / dining room with wood burner. Stairs ascend to the first floor and there is a step up into the kitchen; this mid twentieth century addition is fitted with a range of cupboards, oven, hob, extractor fan and boiler, and is lovely and light in the morning owing to the easterly aspect; there is a door to the garden.
On the first floor the main bedroom enjoys waxed floorboards, an ornate caste iron fireplace with glazed Victorian style tiles, integral wardrobes and shelving and an enlarged family bathroom with stylish fittings and a lovely garden view. The top floor houses a bedroom, garden views and ample eaves storage.

Outside

To the front of the cottage there is a pretty stocked bed set against the brick elevation (the rest of the main building is constructed of sarsen stone). The main garden lies to the rear of the cottage accessed off the kitchen where there is a paved sun terrace with steps up and a pretty archway to the main garden which is cleverly designed with attractive shaped flower beds offering scent and colour over the seasons. A climber covered arch connects an area with raised beds and in turn a large brick-built storage shed ideal for conversion subject to the usual consents. There is a right of access across number 2 Sunnyside to take the bins out and to bring anything into the garden.
