Description

"A very charming Grade II listed character cottage with three bedrooms and a separate two bedroom annexe in a highly desirable village location.

Description

Situated in this most coveted of Cotswold villages, Church Cottage is one of just a handful of homes and is beautifully presented inside and out. The Grade II listed cottage is believed to be early 19th century and is built from local stone under a slate roof, with excellent character throughout. To the rear, a modern glass walled extension adds a touch of contemporary class to the historic building, allowing the beautiful honeyed stone to be seen. Most recently the house has been used as a holiday let and therefore it is immaculately presented, with soft neutrals complementing the original features like exposed beams and an imposing inglenook fireplace. From the upper floors there are tranquil views over the neighbouring church and across the surrounding fields.

The accommodation is split between the main house and a separate annexe, providing fantastic versatility. The main cottage comprises two sitting rooms at the front, the open plan kitchen dining room within the extension to the rear, a utility laundry room, cloakroom and boot room. There is a double bedroom with en suite on the ground floor, with dressing room above and a further two bedrooms also en suite on the first floor. The separate annexe is entirely self contained and has its own kitchen, sitting room, two bedrooms and two bath shower rooms.

Outside
Church Cottage is set within attractive gardens of about three quarters of an acre. To the front, a five bar gate opens to a generous gravel driveway and a parcel of lawn, with mature trees including a silver birch. The rear garden is fantastic for entertaining, featuring an outdoor swimming pool, a large terrace for alfresco meals, an expansive lawn perfect for family games and picnics, and far reaching views over the countryside beyond.
