House is one of Marlborough's best kept secrets

Halfpennies is an interesting and spacious town house featuring a walled garden and parking. Approached from the High Street via a passageway that leads to Back Lane, the house is literally a few yards from the High Street, its market, and fascinating range of shops.

Dreweatt Neate, who are marketing Halfpennies through their Marlborough office at a guide price of £575,000, describe the house as fascinating. It has well-proportioned rooms with good ceiling height and is laid out over three floors plus a utility room in a cellar.

Among its features is an oak-panelled dining room to the front of the house and a Shaker style kitchen complete with Aga, four ring ceramic hob, microwave oven, dishwasher, and fridge / freezer. There’s also an elegant mezzanine floor drawing room with exposed timbers and a view over the rear garden.

The five bedrooms are served by an en-suite bathroom to the first floor master bedroom and separate shower room on the second floor, where four of the bedrooms are situated. There’s planning permission to extend into the loft.

At the rear is a walled garden that’s both private and quiet, despite the central location of the house. Adjacent to the house itself is a paved terrace and there’s also an expanse of lawn flanked by well-stocked flower borders and a natural stone waterfall with rockery. A brick sun terrace is flanked by stone pillars and there’s a further terrace with stone steps up to a raised area.
