Description

Located a short walk (0.4 miles) from Marlborough's historic High Street, The Croft is a stylish and impressive four bedroom family house which has been meticulously renovated to the highest of standards. There is a modern and elegant feel throughout and the attention to detail of the works undertaken is clear to be seen.

The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the house, off which you access the main sitting room and additional family room / snug. The sitting room, with original wooden floorboards, bespoke joinery and wood burning stove, flows seamlessly to a sunny raised decking area which enjoys a southerly aspect overlooking the garden.

The heart of the home is without doubt the stunning and expansive kitchen / dining room which has been comprehensively fitted with a sleek range of high specification units and appliances. There is ample space for family dining and the perfect place for entertaining. The ground floor further offers a large utility room / boot room with ample storage and a cloakroom off the main hallway.

The first-floor accommodation is accessed via two separate staircases, the first of which is off the main entrance hall and ascends to a spacious landing. The generous principal bedroom benefits from built in wardrobes and far-reaching southerly views towards Savernake Forest. There is a further good-sized double bedroom and a single bedroom in this part of the house, all of which are served by the immaculately appointed and luxurious family bathroom, with free standing bath and separate shower.

The second staircase leads up from the kitchen/dining room where there is another beautiful bathroom and double bedroom. There is a further staircase taking you to the galleried mezzanine floor which is currently used as a study / Pilates studio but could also make ideal overflow bedroom space or kids playroom.

Outside

The house is accessed off this quiet lane where there is driveway parking for three cars. To the north of the parking area is an extra area of garden, with raised vegetable beds and a wooden shed. This area, subject to obtaining the necessary consents, offers the perfect place to erect a carport / garage.

On the south side of the house and accessed off the sitting room is a large, decked terrace from which there are steps down to the garden. The garden enjoys great privacy and is enclosed by mature hedging on all sides. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with a good selection of trees and shrubs, flower borders and a pond.

There is a wide selection of national retailers including Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets, popular restaurants include: Rick Stein’s, Franklyn’s Bistro, Dan’s, Pino’s and Ask.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
