"A much loved family home in the unspoilt and highly sought after village of Cherington, with generous mature gardens.

Description

Built in 1986, The Walled Garden is situated on the site of a former barn which was dismantled and the Cotswold stone reused to build the house. The attractive property, with its pitched roofs and ornamental dovecote, has been a much loved family home for many years and has been well maintained, presented in a traditional style inside which would benefit from some modernisation. The potential for personalisation, or more extensive cosmetic redevelopment, is fantastic, with good scope to remodel or extend depending on permissions. The spacious home offers more than 2700 sq ft of space over two floors and is well suited to family life, with its expansive gardens and generous reception spaces ideal for day to day family activities as well as entertaining.

The light and airy ground floor comprises a generously proportioned sitting room, garden room with beautiful views over the gardens on two sides, a formal dining room and a kitchen breakfast room with adjoining utility. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms two en suite , a family bathroom and a fourth bedroom study.

Outside
The Walled Garden is situated close to the centre of Cherington, within the mature, walled gardens which give it its name. The house is approached via a gated entrance onto a large driveway providing ample private parking as well as access to the attached double garage which has a storage area to the rear, accessed from the garden. The rear gardens wrap around two sides of the house with a favourable south westerly aspect and are stocked with a wide variety of trees, shrubs and border plants. A paved terrace affords place to dine outside in the warmer months and the garden is fully enclosed, making it well suited to dog owners.
