Set in the highly sought-after village of Aldbourne, this double-fronted three-bedroom cottage blends period character with village convenience. The ground floor features two reception rooms with parquet flooring, a kitchen, utility room and a ground-floor cloakroom, while the first floor offers two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom. The property benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas central heating (dual fuel option with wood), and dates from the 1930–1949 era, retaining traditional proportions and charm.
Externally, the property has a neatly landscaped, enclosed rear garden with patio, mature planting and a small lawn — a private outdoor space that’s low on maintenance. A separate allocated off-street parking space to the rear (accessed via Barnes’ Yard) is a notable advantage for this village location. The house is sold with no onward chain, making it straightforward for a buyer to move quickly.
Practical points for buyers: the plot is small and the property offers a single family bathroom, which may be limiting for larger households. The cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed), so there is potential for energy-efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. Tenure is currently unknown and should be confirmed prior to exchange.
This home will suit buyers seeking village life near good schools (including an Outstanding primary), countryside walks and nearby links to Marlborough and Swindon. It presents a comfortable, well-presented cottage that also offers modest renovation potential to improve energy performance and internal layout if desired.
