Description
This beautifully presented period home is rich in character and architectural charm, showcased by its handsome brickandflint façade, generous proportions and notably tall ceiling heights throughout. Sympathetically maintained, the house blends classic features with a warm, welcoming atmosphere, offering lightfilled and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors.
On the ground floor, a gracious reception hall sets the tone, leading through to the principal rooms. The sitting room is an impressive and elegant space, enhanced by high ceilings, large windows and a striking fireplace with woodburning stove, creating a wonderful focal point and an ideal room for both entertaining and everyday living. Double doors open directly to the rear terrace and garden beyond.
The kitchen/dining room is equally inviting, combining exposed beams, original oak floors, bespoke cabinetry and another woodburning stove, making it a true heart of the home. There is ample space for a family dining table whilst a useful utility room, spacious cellar and separate store (accessed externally) provide excellent practical spaces.
Upstairs, the first floor continues to impress with its sense of space and light. The principal bedroom is generous in scale, enjoying tall ceilings and complemented by an ensuite bathroom. There are two further wellproportioned bedrooms (one ensuite) and a large family bathroom, each room retaining the character and charm seen throughout the house.
Outside
Outside, the southeast facing garden is a particular highlight. Thoughtfully planted and well established, it enjoys sun throughout much of the day and provides a tranquil setting with areas of lawn, mature trees and shrubs, and a generous paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining. To the front, there is substantial gravelled parking providing space for numerous vehicles.
Situation
Aldbourne is one of the most popular villages in Wiltshire – historic, beautiful, and a thriving community. It is well served by a local Post Office and store, Co-op Supermarket, primary school, parish church and public houses. Many families are drawn to the village for its outstanding primary school and nearby outstanding secondary school St. John’s Academy in Marlborough, as well as leading private schools such as Pinewood, Dauntsey’s and Marlborough College.
Set in spectacular rolling countryside, there are many footpaths and trails locally to explore, including The Ridgeway national trail which passes nearby. Barbury Castle, an ancient hill fort, provides far-reaching panoramic views of the area. Just six miles away is the thriving market town of Marlborough, which has a high street packed with boutique shops alongside national retailers such as Waitrose.
Swindon with shopping centre and main line station with fast trains (Paddington 55 minutes) is about 9 miles. Hungerford train station is about 7 miles away with access to London Paddington and Reading. The M4 motorway junctions 15 (Chiseldon) and 14 (Shefford Woodlands) are within 6 and 9 miles.
