Property Description:

A rare opportunity to purchase a delightful four-bedroom period residence in the sought-after village of South Marston, offering over 1,700 sqft of beautifully presented living space. Brimming with over 300 years of character, this cherished home has been lovingly maintained by the current owners, creating a warm and welcoming ambience throughout.

Once serving as the village post office and shop dating back to the 1700s, the property now features four generously sized double bedrooms and an additional single bedroom currently used as a home office—easily adaptable into an ensuite for the master bedroom, if desired. The first floor also offers a stylish three-piece family bathroom.

The ground floor includes three elegant reception rooms, each showcasing original period features, alongside a charming country-style kitchen with a walk-in pantry, and a recently updated W.C.

Outside, the home enjoys wrap-around gardens to the front and rear, framed by mature, flowering shrubs, as well as gravel driveway parking for two vehicles.

Further highlights include a newly installed gas boiler, mains drainage, and full mains electricity.

Properties of this nature seldom come to market—viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all that this exceptional home has to offer.

*Generally speaking Guide Prices are provided as an indication of each seller’s minimum expectation. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Virtually every property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure Guide.

The “Important Notes For Auction Buyers” at the front of the catalogue includes a definition of “Guide Price & Reserve Price”. All properties are subject to a purchaser’s administration fee of £2,100 (inc. VAT) unless otherwise stated in the addendum (£600 inc. VAT for lots with guide prices up to £3,000). If the purchaser is liable for any further costs these will be stated within the Special Conditions of the legal pack, that have been produced by the seller’s lawyer, a copy of which can be downloaded from our website.
