"Approached over an impressive sweeping tree lined gravel driveway, this impressive Cotswold stone property is set within just under 2.7 acres of formal landscaped gardens.
Holly Bush House is a stunning Cotswold detached house within a superb setting, overlooking its beautiful grounds and backing on to open Gloucestershire countryside. It was significantly restored, extended, and refurbished to create a light, spacious, well proportioned home with an excellent flow.
The property has excellent principal rooms, with antique oak wood parquet floors with underfloor heating downstairs featuring a Jet master fire, a stunning kitchen with a large range of storage and Italian stonework surface and including an Everhot and a beautiful garden room leads out to the swimming pool and terrace area connecting the main house to the pool area and gardens.
An impressive pool guest house offers additional guest accommodation to the main house with potentially two more bedrooms. A double carport has a practical gym home office.
All combined to create a stylishly thought out design with exacting standards, and it is now a sophisticated, luxurious and practical family home with the resources to live, relax and entertain in the most spectacular ways. The house is well proportioned throughout and has a natural flow to it.
Holly Bush House is situated in a considerably private location on the East side of the renowned Westonbirt Arboretum, Beaufort Polo Ground and Westonbirt School. Westonbirt is a small Cotswold village that nonetheless features the acclaimed Hare and Hounds hotel and a golf course, with the larger, very well served village of Sherston also being close at hand.

Gardens and Grounds
Through bespoke electric gates, there is a tree lined drive, and mature ever green firs screen the west border of the property. To the west side of the main house is the swimming pool with an impressive terrace made of La Roche Limestone, which has had a surface treatment to give it optimum slip resistance. There is also a hot tub, which is independent of the pool, enabling it to be on all year, which sits under its own pergola with a door from the pool guest house.
The large stone terrace surrounding the opulent pool area leads into a pergola walkway towards a dining area that enjoys views over the grounds, a wildflower meadow, and a small Orchard. Beyond the swimming pool is a large vegetable garden with a raised bed, and the addition of an Alitex Victorian glasshouse is to be enjoyed.

Services
Mains electricity and water. Septic tank. Oil fired central heating and air source heating for the underfloor heating.
