A charming Grade II* listed house with south facing garden, located moments from Marlborough High Street.

Description

Kennet Court is a charming Grade II* listed property built in the mid-17th century of brick elevations under a tiled roof with accommodation arranged over 4 floors. Despite the close proximity to the High Street, the property enjoys a delightfully peaceful location and is perfectly positioned to enjoy all that Marlborough has to offer.

The kitchen has quarry tiled flooring and a great range of fitted units. The main reception room is a fabulous space, with high ceilings, stripped wooden flooring and feature fireplace with door leading to the courtyard garden. The basement offers additional living space or extra, handy storage.

On the first floor there are two bedrooms with the main bedroom benefitting from an en-suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes featuring beautiful doors constructed from Georgian shutters. A key feature of the main bedroom is the c.17th Century fireplace. There is an additional shower room with WC and basin on the first floor; this also has plumbing for a washing machine. On the second floor a further room is currently used as a bedroom.

Outside

There is a pretty courtyard garden which opens out from the Sitting room and, given its southerly aspect, provides a lovely suntrap and is an ideal area for entertaining.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
