Description
Located c3 miles to the north of Marlborough, 1 Hallam Cottages is a charming three bedroom detached house. The property was built in 1974 and, due to the south-easterly aspect, enjoys good levels of natural light throughout and also enjoys unusually high ceilings for this style of property.
The welcoming and spacious entrance hall leads through to the modern kitchen / dining room, with tiled floor and a great range of fitted units. It's large enough for a good-sized dining table and offers a great space in which to cook and entertain. There is also access to a downstairs WC with basin and shower.
The triple aspect sitting room enjoys generous proportions, is centred around the open fireplace and provides access to the garden through double doors. There is scope, subject to obtaining the necessary consents, to extend should there be the need for more space.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, all of which benefit from built-in storage cupboards. These bedrooms are served by the well-appointed family bathroom.
Outside
There is car parking for 2 vehicles to the front of the property. The south-east facing garden is mainly laid to lawn and is bordered by mature shrub borders. The garden wraps around the side of the house and from all areas you enjoy great privacy. The terrace, accessed via double doors off the sitting room, offers the ideal spot for relaxing / entertaining in the summer months. A wooden shed offers useful garden storage.
