Description
Chandlers is a detached family home located on one of Marlborough's prime roads, offering the perfect blend of privacy whilst being only moments from the historic Marlborough High Street.
Set back from the road and enjoying the most wonderful views over the roof tops of Marlborough, Chandlers is coming to the market for the first time in 25 years and is ready for the new owners to make it their own.
Upon entering the property you are greeted into the two-tiered hallway with steps leading down where all the reception spaces are accessed. The main sitting room enjoys lovely views over the garden and links seamlessly through to the adjoining dining space. The whole house has a great flow to it and enjoys good natural light, given its south-easterly aspect. The conservatory, with doors opening out to the rear garden, offers another reception space from where you can enjoy and appreciate the peace and tranquillity of this superbly located house. To the front of the property is the kitchen fitted with a good range of units. This space could be opened to the dining space to make an open plan kitchen/dining room. A study and cloakroom complete the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, two of which have built in wardrobes with the principal bedroom benefitting from an ensuite shower room. The principal bedroom and second bedroom enjoy views over the rear garden and town beyond whilst the third bedroom is to the front. These bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.
Outside
To the front of the property is a detached garage and off-street parking. The rear garden has been lovingly tendered to over the years and has won awards as part of the Marlborough open gardens. There are an array of specimen flowers, shrubs and trees to provide interest and colour throughout the year. To the rear of the garden is a detached outbuilding with power, light and water which is currently utilised as a workshop space, but would make for a wonderful home office / art studio. There is a side wooden gate that opens to Chandlers Yard providing pedestrian access to and from the High Street.

Marlborough is a vibrant market town and offers a mix of major retailers, independent boutiques, coffee and tea shops.
