Period character with garden studio and easy walk to Marlborough.
South-facing garden with two levels and patio
Set in the heart of Manton, this period semi-detached cottage blends character features with practical village living. The sitting room retains exposed beams, wooden floors and a wood-burning stove; steps lead up to an open-plan kitchen/dining room that enjoys a bright southerly aspect and garden views. A versatile ground-floor nook works as a study or play area while two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the layout.
Outside, a small, well-tended south-facing garden is arranged on two levels with a paved terrace for summer entertaining. At the bottom of the garden is a useful insulated home office/studio with power, ideal for remote working or creative projects. The property is a short, pleasant walk into Marlborough via a riverside footpath, with local primary schooling and village amenities close by.
Practical points to note: the house is traditionally constructed with solid brick walls and is assumed to have no wall insulation, and the current energy performance is rated E, so there is scope to improve thermal efficiency. The plot and overall living space are modest (circa 722 sq ft), making the cottage best suited to a couple, small family or downsizers seeking character and a village location rather than a larger modern home.
Sold freehold with mains gas central heating, mains drainage and fast broadband, this cottage offers a ready-to-enjoy period home with realistic potential to reduce running costs and personalise the interior. The village setting, proximity to Marlborough and the separate garden studio are standout practical benefits for modern living.
