NO ONWARD CHAIN. Unexpectedly available again. Enjoying a peaceful location in the heart of Marlborough, this is a charming and well-presented two bedroom cottage of red brick elevations under a tiled roof relieved by double glazed windows.

The reception room is to the front of the property overlooking the garden and has built in bookshelves and an open fireplace. The kitchen has modern fitted units with an integrated electric oven with four ring gas hob above. There is a useful storage area beneath the stairs.

There is also access to a small enclosed garden.

Upstairs are two good size double bedrooms. The main bedroom is to the front and enjoys views over the garden.

There is scope to extend, subject to planning approval, as neighbouring houses have done, to create more space. The house is being sold with no onward chain.
