Property description
Description
65 Marlborough Road is a classic Regency Grade II Listed 4 storey town house in a highly sought after quiet location close to local shops, schools and the city centre with adaptable accommodation. The present owners have sympathetically up dated the house, retaining many original features. On the lower ground floor is a generous Kitchen/Dining/Family room with an Aga which leads through to a sun room. There are two reception rooms on the ground floor and then 5 bedrooms over the first and second floors. Outside is a 45ft wall enclosed south facing rear garden. The property has a particular benefit in that it owns a garage and parking space to the side.
Directions
From the city centre, Magdalen Road, go over the traffic lights with the Mount Radford Inn on your left and the junction for St Leonards Road on your right. Take the second right hand turning for Marlborough Road. Continue down the road, through the dog leg, and you will then find the property almost at the end on the left hand side before the junction with Wonford Road.
