Parklands, Malmesbury

Set towards the western edge of the town, just over half a mile from the centre, this deceptively spacious detached home offers a wonderful balance of space, character and practicality. Over the years, the current owners have created a truly warm and inviting home, full of charm and timeless style, giving the interiors an almost Victorian feel despite the property being much more modern in age.

The entrance opens into a spacious hallway with cleverly designed built-in storage beneath the stairs, alongside a downstairs cloakroom. To the front sits the dining room, which flows through an archway into the sitting room, creating a lovely sense of connection between the spaces whilst still feeling cosy and characterful. The sitting room enjoys access onto the rear garden and centres around a charming log burner, adding warmth and atmosphere to the room.

To the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room offers plenty of space for day-to-day living and includes an integrated oven and hob, along with a separate utility cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine and fitted water softener.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three genuine double bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom overlooking the garden and benefitting from an en-suite shower room. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while a useful linen cupboard sits on the landing.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight of the home. Wonderfully established and an exceptional size, it feels private, peaceful and beautifully in keeping with the charm of the house itself. There is plenty of room for entertaining, gardening or family life, while to the side and front the property benefits from driveway parking and a detached garage with power and lighting.
