A spacious and adaptable village home, offering just over 2000 sq. Ft (188 sq. M) of living space, with five very generously sized bedrooms, two with en-suite shower rooms, two reception rooms and enjoying a lane side position in the well served village of Marnhull. The village boasts a thriving community with many events taking place in the hall and recreational grounds, there are three churches, choice of two highly rated primary schools, two public houses plus doctor's surgery with pharmacy as well as two shops - one with a post office.
The flexible accommodation is perfect for an existing or growing family as well as generating income from Airbnb or Bed & Breakfast or creating a home for a relative who needs some support but with a level of independence too. Furthermore, the principal bedroom suite lends itself to other needs - a wonderful teenage studio, work from home space or an office to run a business from, with four separate external entrances - all options are viable. Outside, there is parking available for up to four vehicles and the easy maintenance gardens are perfect for those with a busy lifestyle but who still wish to enjoy the beauty of outdoor spaces without the hassle of extensive upkeep. This lovely home also enjoys some delightful views of the surrounding fields and the church tower in the distance, adding a touch of English countryside charm to your everyday life.
It is imperative that a viewing is carried out to fully appreciate all the choices this home offers and how it will satisfy your own individual needs. This type of property, with these facilities, is rare in this location, as such, it is highly recommended that an early viewing is booked to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next owner.
