The village has a particularly appealing setting on the edge of the Marlborough Downs, surrounded by some of the area's most attractive countryside. The Ridgeway passes to the north, while Liddington Castle, an Iron Age hillfort, stands prominently above the village and provides a reminder of the area’s long history. Liddington has a village pub and parish church, with a primary school and further everyday amenities available in nearby Wanborough. The market town of Marlborough is approximately 15 minutes away and offers an excellent range of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, together with a Waitrose supermarket and a variety of leisure facilities. There is a good choice of schooling in the wider area, including Pinewood School at Bourton and Marlborough College, alongside a number of well-regarded state schools. Despite its village setting, Liddington is particularly well placed for communications. The M4 and A419 are both within easy reach, providing convenient access to Swindon, Marlborough, Cirencester and the wider region. Swindon railway station offers regular direct services to London Paddington, with journey times from approximately 55 minutes. Description 16 The Green is a charming part-thatched, Grade II listed cottage offering a surprising amount of space and a flexible arrangement of accommodation. Beautifully presented throughout, the house combines plenty of original character with light and comfortable living spaces. The dual-aspect sitting room has a warm and inviting feel, with exposed beams and an impressive stone inglenook fireplace forming the focal point of the room. Windows to both the front and rear bring in plenty of natural light and provide views towards the gardens. Alongside is a useful utility/hobby room with direct access to the garden. A staircase from here leads to two bedrooms, a study and a family bathroom, creating a separate area of the house that could work equally well for children, guests or home working. The kitchen has been beautifully re-designed with plenty of surface space, storage cupboards and a range of built in Neff appliances. There is also ample room for relaxed living/dining both inside and out through the stable door which leads straight out onto the cottage garden. Completing the ground floor, the formal dining room provides excellent space for entertaining. The room extends into an inviting seating area, where French Doors open onto a private walled terrace. A second staircase rises from the main hall to three further bedrooms and a family bathroom, giving the house five bedrooms in total, in addition to the study. Outside The property is approached over a tarmac driveway providing off-street parking for several vehicles. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, with established borders, mature shrubs and small trees providing an attractive setting for the house. The gardens continue to the rear, where a lawn, mature planting and small pond create a traditional cottage garden feel. A garden shed provides useful storage, while a sheltered terrace makes the most of the sunny aspect. Seller Insight What is your favourite room in the house and why? We have so many favourites. This is such a special place. We have loved living here since we arrived 44 years ago and have enjoyed watching the house and garden change with the seasons. In the summer on sunny days the house is filled with sunshine, when we make the most of the garden and outdoor living, particularly entertaining in the walled garden. Winters are wonderfully cosy, with the log fire burning in the living room. If the mood takes us, we can even enjoy a barbeque and roast chestnuts on the grill over the fire. The grill was specially made for us by the blacksmith who crafted the fire grate, tools, and hood. Who do you think would be the next ideal owner? The house has happily managed to accommodate a growing family who continue to enjoy the flexible accommodation, bringing their own children to stay, and making the most of the various configurations of sleeping arrangements that we are able to create. So we would hope new owners can enjoy the same experience. What do you love most about the house and why? We particularly love the position of the house, right in the heart of the village, yet tucked away from the main Street giving us a wonderful sense of peace and privacy. We are surrounded by beautiful countryside, with lovely walks right on our doorstep. What do you love about the local community? The local community is another thing we have always valued. We have the very best neighbours and many good friends nearby, and the village has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Just a few minutes’ walk away, the village hall hosts a good variety of activities and social events (details of which are very usefully given on the village website), making it easy to get involved in village life. How easy is it to commute from here? It is very easy to commute, and the location is perfect for exploring further afield. By bus or car, Oxford can be reached in an hour; Bath, Bristol and London are easily reached by train or car, and Cheltenham is just an hour’s drive away. Marlborough, a 15-minute drive, offers a wide range of activities and amenities, including the leisure centre and the independent Parade cinema, which we particularly enjoy for its excellent selection of films, as well as video streamed exhibitions and concerts. For golfers, we are between two nearby courses. What made you choose the property over others that were available at the time? After 44 years, this really does feel a very special place to live and a perfect home for us, and we recognised that potential when we found it all those years ago. We have thoroughly enjoyed both the house itself and the wonderful community and countryside that surround us. Services: Mains water, mains drainage, Gas fired CH.
