Description

"A fine listed five bedroom Manor House and one bedroom cottage in about 0.83 acres.

Description

The Manor House is Grade II listed and dates back to the early 16th century. Over the years, particularly 19th century, it has been significantly restored and altered. It was once a farmhouse tenanted from the Diocese of Gloucester by the Fowler Family until 1860 when William Fowler bought the freehold. A detailed historical note on the colourful history of the Manor House is available under separate cover by request.

Over the last 10 years, this spacious Manor House has been sensitively restored and enhanced including restoring or replicating the leaded windows, lime rendering internal walls and replacing the greater part of the slate roof.

Features include several original late 16th century mullioned windows, late 16th century oak panelling, fine open replaces, exposed beams, solid oak and flagstone floors and vaulted ceilings to certain rooms.

The front door, accessed from the walled courtyard, opens to a central entrance hall, off which is a cloakroom and an eye catching 17th century style turning staircase to the galleried first floor landing.

The large kitchen has bespoke units with honed slate worktops and French doors open to the south facing terrace. Appliances include a four oven gas AGA with ancillary electric oven and space for an American fridge freezer. In addition there is a separate utility room with large, fitted pantry cupboards and space for a dishwasher and washer dryer.

Between the hall and the kitchen is a study snug with bespoke fitted bookshelves.

Steps up from the hall lead to a spacious drawing room which has an oriel window with a window seat, beautiful period oak floors and bookcases made from reclaimed elm surround the open fireplace.

The fine dining room has a vaulted ceiling and reclaimed stone open fireplace. There is a medieval door providing access to the side of the property and a fully glazed door leading to the terraced gardens. Adjoining the dining room is a wonderfully large versatile games media room with an additional garden door to the terraces. Both rooms have stone flagged floors and underfloor heating.

On the first floor, the spectacular principal bedroom suite has a vaulted ceiling, stone surround open fireplace and an en suite with a double shower and a cast iron roll top bath. Bedrooms two and three both have en suite bathrooms, whilst bedroom 3 also features oak panelled walls. Bedroom 4 could also serve as a study laundry room.

On the top floor is the fifth bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room reading nook.

The Cottage comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, bedroom and bathroom. Outside there is a courtyard garden with direct access to the grounds of the main house but also a private independent access to the town centre.

It offers a wonderful opportunity for a relative, as a rental income generating opportunity or alternative ancillary uses.

19th century oak gates, under a majestic Cedar of Lebanon tree, open to a gravel courtyard with a Coach House comprising a two bay garage and large workshop with extensive storage above.

The large rear terraced gardens are a particular feature of the property and, unusually for a town centre location, are entirely private with a high Cotswold stone wall surrounding the whole property.

Doors from the kitchen open to a south facing flagstone terrace with two loggias offering a wonderful space for al fresco dining, whilst enjoying the all day sunshine. There is an adjacent walled vegetable garden and greenhouse, and from the flagstone terrace steps lead down to the main lawn with established herbaceous borders and a path to the entrance courtyard.

At the bottom of the gardens is a discreetly set swimming pool and charming pool house with a terrace and plant room with WC and den above.

A secondary vehicular entrance further down Manor Lane, provides access to a spacious parking courtyard that in turn leads to the bottom of the gardens.
