3 bed detached house for sale

Westcourt, Burbage, Marlborough, Wiltshire SN8

Description

Located on Westcourt on the edge of the village of Burbage, Folly Cottage is an unlisted three bedroom property under a thatch roof.

The house is now in need of full restoration throughout but at just under 1600 square feet, already has a great footprint and is sat on a large plot of c0.75 acres.

The property offers the incoming purchaser the opportunity to restore and extend the current shell, or alternatively create a brand new home (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).

Outside

Accessed via a shared driveway, the property sits on a plot of c0.75 acres. Given the size of the plot, there is ample space to create a parking area with garaging (STPP) and still be left with plenty of space for formal gardens.

The garden is all laid to lawn with a great selection of mature trees and shrubs, offering a blank canvas to create something truly special.
