West Lodge is constructed of whitewashed elevations under a slate tiled roof and was originally the larger part of a period property dating from the 17th Century, with later additions.
The well-proportioned accommodation is arranged over two floors, with an elegant double aspect reception room overlooking the rear garden, with open fireplace. There is a kitchen, dining room and utility room completing the downstairs accommodation. The utility room and room above could be used as a self-contained annexe as it has its own access.
Upstairs are four good sized bedrooms which are served by two well-appointed family bathrooms.
The property does require some modernisation and could potentially be extended (subject to the usual consents) to create a wonderful family home.
Outside
The property benefits from a private and mature garden extending to a third of an acre, which is partially enclosed by Sarsen stone walling and has many mature flowers, trees and a wide variety of roses and a large area of lawn. There are also two storage sheds. To the side of the property is a detached double garage with parking to the front.
Situation
Manton is on the southern banks of the River Kennet approximately 1 mile from Marlborough. The walk into Marlborough is about 10 minutes via a lane and footpath which follows the river. Village amenities include an excellent primary school, a toddler group, a church and a public house. There is also a recently renovated recreational ground in Manton with a playground/adventure course which runs down to the river. Marlborough is a thriving market town with excellent shopping including Waitrose and Tesco’s, as well as restaurants including Rick Stein, ASK and Caffé Nero in addition to the shopping precincts Hilliers Yard (near Waitrose) and Hughenden Yard (between Boots and W H Smith). The leisure centre and golf club and tennis club provide excellent sporting facilities. Although self-sufficient, the town is well placed for other centres including Swindon, Bath, Hungerford and Newbury and is surrounded by the most attractive countryside of the Marlborough Downs, Pewsey Vale and Kennet Valley. Intercity (Paddington in 50 minutes from Hungerford or Swindon) rail and M4 connections make London easily accessible.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on October 7, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
