Vendors thoughts "The Home Farmhouse has been a wonderful family home for the last 10 years. Sitting centrally yet privately in the middle of its own land and the village, we love the views from all aspects. Over time we have enjoyed extending the main house and converting a separate coach house for guests and the property is a wonderful balance of traditional and more modern aspects. Undoubtedly our favourite spot is to sit in front of the large picture window looking eastwards down the valley. With our children and their ponies! now having departed for fresh pastures, we are aiming for Cheltenham as a new adventure but will not lose touch with this wonderful village completely due to keeping a small converted barn a little way away!"
In a nutshell Beauty, comfort and breathtaking views. An exceptional Cotswold home!
