WEST OVERTON
West Overton is a small village in the Kennet Valley approx. 4 miles west of Marlborough. The village benefits from a recently refurbished public house and popular church and there is a primary school at the nearby village of East Kennet and Lockeridge. Marlborough provides a varied range of shops, restaurants and other amenities and the larger centres of Swindon and Devizes are approximately 15 and 10 miles away. Within easy access for M4 Junction 15. Mainline railway stations are at Swindon, Pewsey and Great Bedwyn.

THE PROPERTY
Originally constructed in 1968 as a three bedroomed detached bungalow, Whipsiderry has been enlarged and improved over recent years to provide a flexible and sizeable family home.This however, is only half the story, as its location, land and views are a rare treat and difficult to come by in the Marlborough area. In brief, an outstanding property with a great garden and outlook.
THE ACCOMMODATION
Walking through the five bar gate across the driveway, one can go left to the main house or turn right to the annexe. We will start with the main house, up to the front door, through the porch into the hall. This has been opened up into what was originally a bedroom, now forming a good sized study hall, complete with BT point, with window overlooking the garden and spiral staircase rising to the first floor. Straight ahead through a doorway into the dining room with an open fireplace which allows this room to be used as a snug in winter, open plan into the sitting room. This room has windows to the rear and side and a french door opening into the garden. Lovely light and airy room with usual television and telephone connections.
CONTINUED
Back through the dining room, turning right into the L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room with windows to the front and side, space for a table and chairs, good range of wall & base fitted units with extensive worksurfaces over. Inset sink with mixer tap, oil fired Rayburn range cooker, built in separate oven & grill, four ring hob (with pyrolytic cleaner), space for dishwasher, fridge and freezer. Through to the utility room with a window to the side and door out into the garden, sink unit with mixer tap, plumbing for washing machine and oil fired boiler for the central heating. Adjacent to the utility room can be found two water softeners accessed from outside. Back to the hall and first right into the third bedroom with window to the front and a built- in double wardrobe.
CONTINUED
Next along into the family bathroom, again with a window to the front, corner bath with shower over, wash basin and toilet. The next door opens into the annexe main bedroom, however, this room could easily be used by the main house if required, as the annexe has a sitting room which could be made into a bedroom. We will stay for now in the main house so next along into the second bedroom which is a good sized double overlooking the rear garden. Ok up the spiral staircase into the family / music room with windows to the front and rear with lovely views, built in eves storage cupboards to the sides. Left into the master bedroom which again is a good sized double, windows to the rear and side and door opening onto a Juliet balcony enjoying views over the gardens and beyond.
CONTINUED
Door opening into the dressing room which is fitted with wardrobes and storage cupboards. Across into the ensuite shower room which has a most attractive contemporary suite, large walk-in shower enclosure, wash basin, toilet and a built-in storage cupboard. With a window to the front looking up to the Downs, which has one of the best views from a shower room I have seen in years. OK so that is the main house, out through the front door, left along the path and left again to the front door of the annexe.
ANNEXE
Hardwood stable door opening into the kitchen/breakfast room, window to the front, range of wall and base fitted units, worksurfaces, inset sink with mixer tap over, built in hob with extractor hood, oven & grill, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washing machine.

Turning right into the dining room with two windows to the side, space for a table or can be used as a second sitting area, door left into the inner hall but we will carry straight on through glazed doors into the sitting room which is of a good size with double doors out into the garden and again usual television and telephone connections. Turning around and right into the inner hall/dressing room with range of wardrobes, door right into the cloakroom with toilet and wash basin. Finally into the bedroom which is a good double with window to the front, door into the hall of the main house and door into the ensuite shower room with wash basin, toilet and walk in shower.
