Poughcombe Farmhouse is a beautiful period country house in a peaceful village setting on the edge of the Marlborough Downs. The house has been completely renovated by the current owners during their ownership and is beautifully presented throughout, having been very stylishly decorated creating fresh, contemporary interiors, whilst still maintaining the original character of the building. The house offers wonderful space with large, well-proportioned rooms, good ceiling heights and numerous large windows allowing in plenty of natural light, and makes an ideal family home.
