Pipers Piece, Herd Street, Marlborough, Wiltshire, SN8

DESCRIPTION

Enjoying a secluded position with a particularly private garden, 4 Pipers Piece is a well-proportioned three bedroom detached house of brick elevations under a tiled roof and relieved by double glazed windows.

Due to its orientation, the property enjoys a wealth of natural light throughout and of particular note is the sitting room which provides a spacious yet cosy space and is centred around the open fireplace. The kitchen is a generous size and is fitted with an array of eye level and base units, a fitted dishwasher and washing machine. It has a lovely feel to it and flows seamlessly through to the dining area which, in turn, takes you out to the rear patio beyond.

The garden room offers a very handy extra space and could be extended to create an extra reception room, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

The main bedroom is located to the front of the property and has an abundance of built in wardrobes and a recently renovated ensuite shower room with a heated towel rail. The double guest bedroom is a very good size and there is also a single bedroom, which is currently being utilised as an office. Both bedrooms are served by the well-appointed bathroom, with separate shower.

OUTSIDE

The house is accessed via Blowhorn Street and the lane leads to a gated driveway with parking for two cars. Additionally there is a garage which offers excellent storage space or further parking, should it be needed.

The garden is south-east facing and is mainly laid to lawn with an array of trees and shrubs plus a useful garden storage shed. The owner has created a lovely gravelled terrace which provides the perfect place to relax or for outdoor entertaining.

There is also a rear patio area which is ideal for catching the late afternoon sun, in the warmer months.
